Setting Up the Morticer
13
The mortice will generate a lot of ‘grip’ on the chisel, especially
the first cut, or if the timber is a little green. Make sure you use
the table clamp assembly to help control the timber during the
raise operation of the morticer.
General Notes
When the chisel is tightened in the machine it must normally
be square to the back fence. The easiest way to achieve this is
to bring the head stock down to bring the chisel as close to the
table as possible, set a square against the back fence and set
the side of the chisel against the square and clamp tight.
(Remember to have the chip ejection slot in the chisel to the
side from which you will cut the mortice).
Setting the Chisel Square
Quick Setting of the Mortice Depth
Put a mark on an easily accessible end of the work piece to be
mortised, at the depth you require. Pull the head stock down,
and put the end of the timber against the chisel, position the
Coupled with the depth stop on the same assembly is the
head stock rise limiter. This limits the rise of the head stock /
chisel to a convenient distance above the work by the use of a
locking collar positioned above the stop finger on the side of
the head stock. The travel of this assembly is then restricted to
your chosen setting rather than having to return it to the top of
the slide each time.
head stock so that the chisel points or the auger point are at
the depth required, raise the depth stop collar to the under-
side of the head stock and tighten gently. Recheck the depth
of the chisel point, if it is satisfactory tighten securely, if not it
can be gently ‘nudged’ down the column with the head stock,
then tighten. Reposition the operating handle to give the most
comfortable position and purchase on the lever, over the full
distance of the movement you have just set.
