Using the tool with the trimmer base
Set the tool base on the workpiece without the trimmer
bit making any contact. Turn the tool on and wait until
the trimmer bit attains full speed. Move the tool forward
over the workpiece surface. Keep the tool base flush
while moving the tool.
When cutting the edge, be sure to keep the workpiece
surface on the left side of the trimmer bit in the feed
direction.

NOTE:
Before cutting on the actual workpiece, it is
recommended to make a sample cut. The proper feed
speed depends on the trimmer bit size, the kind of
workpiece, and depth of cut. Moving the tool forward
too fast may cause a poor quality of cut, or damage to
the trimmer bit or motor. Moving the tool forward too
slowly may burn and mar the cutting surface.
When using the trimmer shoe, the straight guide, or the
trimmer guide, be sure to keep it on the right side in the
feed direction. This will help to keep it flush with the side
of the workpiece.

NOTICE:
Since excessive cutting may cause
overload of the motor or difficulty in controlling
the tool, the depth of cut should not be more than
3 mm at a pass when cutting grooves.
When you
wish to cut grooves more than 3 mm deep, make
several passes with progressively deeper trimmer bit
settings.
