WARNING
If you are changing a cutter immediately after use, be
careful not to touch the cutter or collet with your hands
or fi ngers. They may get burnt due to the heat buildup
from cutting. Always use the wrench provide.
If installing a cutter for the first time, it can be installed
once the collet nut is loose. If changing cutters, cutter
will easily slip from collet after loosening collet nut.
The collet is machined to precision tolerances to fit
cutters with 6.35 mm diameter shanks.
With your trimmer still upside down on a workbench,
insert shank of cutter into collet. The shank of your
cutter should be close to but not touching the bottom
of the collet. This allows for expansion when the cutter
gets hot.
Tighten the collet nut securely by turning clockwise
with the wrench provided.
WARNING
If collet nut is not tightened securely, cutter may come
out during use, causing serious personal injury.
WARNING
Avoid open area of trimmer base. Serious personal
injury will result from contact with a rotating cutter.
TO SET THE DEPTH OF CUT
See fi gure 3
WARNING
Failure to unplug your trimmer could result in accidental
starting causing serious injury.
Unplug your trimmer.
Loosen the wing bolt and move the base until the tip
of cutter touches the work surface. The depth of cut is
zero at this point.
Position your trimmer so that the cutter can extend
below the sub base for desired depth of cut setting.
Move the base to obtain the desired depth of cut.
The distance the cutter moves will be indicated on
the depth of cut scale. The cut scale is dual measure.
Each mark indicates a change of 1/16” per division on
one scale and 1mm on the other. Indicator points are
located on the base.
Securely tighten the wing bolt.
OPERATION
WARNING
Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with
side shields when using your trimmer. Failure to do so
could result in dust, shavings, chips, loose particles or
foreign objects being thrown into your eyes resulting in
possible serious injury. If the operation is dusty, also
wear a face or dust mask.
WARNING
When turing your trimmer ON, be prepared for start-up
torque. Always have a fi rm grasp of your trimmer before
starting. Because of the high cutter speed rotation your
trimmer has a tendency to twist, jerk, or grab in your
hands during start-up. If not prepared, this can cause a
loss of control resulting in possible serious injury.
STRAIGHT FENCE
See fi gure 4
It is helpful to use the straight fence when trimming the
straight edge or engraving a groove.
Tighten the screw to install straight fence. Loosen the
wing bolt to adjust the required distance between bit and
fence. Then tighten the bolt, keep the fence even with the
workpiece edge when cutting and moving the tool.
CIRCUMFERENCE CUTTING
See fi gure 5 - 6
By installing the straight fence and connector you can
make a circumference cut. Available radius cuts, shown
from bit to central hole.
Minimum radius: 70mm
Maximum radius: 220mm
Attention: The straight fence is unable to cut a radius
between 172mm and 186mm.
Correctly align the fence central hole to the required
circle’s center. Pushing a nail, with a diameter no more
than 6mm into the hole, to fi rmly fi x the fence. Move the
tool around the nail in a clockwise direction.
ADJUSTING THE GUIDE
See fi gure 7 - 8
It is much easier to use the adjusting guide for curve
cutting and trimming. Move the guide along the curved
edge.
