NOTE:
•
Moving the tool forward too fast may cause a poor
quality of cut, or damage to the bit or motor. Moving
the tool forward too slowly may burn and mar the
cut. The proper feed rate will depend on the bit size,
the kind of workpiece and depth of cut. Before
beginning the cut on the actual workpiece, it is
advisable to make a sample cut on a piece of scrap
lumber. This will show exactly how the cut will look
as well as enable you to check dimensions.

NOTE:
•
When using the straight guide or the trimmer guide,
be sure to install it on the right side in the feed
direction. This will help to keep it flush with the side
of the workpiece.
Straight guide

The straight guide is effectively used for straight cuts
when chamfering or grooving.
Install the straight guide on the guide holder with the
thumb screw (B). Insert the guide holder into the holes in
the tool base and tighten the thumb screw (A). To adjust
the distance between the bit and the straight guide,
loosen the thumb screw (B) and turn the fine adjusting
screw (1.5 mm per turn). At the desired distance, tighten
the thumb screw (B) to secure the straight guide in place.

When using a large diameter bit, attach pieces of wood to
the straight guide which have a thickness of more than
15 mm to prevent the bit from striking the straight guide.
When cutting, move the tool with the straight guide flush
with the side of the workpiece.
Templet guide
004932
The templet guide provides a sleeve through which the
bit passes, allowing use of the tool with templet patterns.
To install the templet guide, loosen the screws on the tool
base, insert the templet guide and then tighten the
screws.
