STRAIGHT FENCE (Fig. 3)
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.
OPERATION
CIRCUMFERENCE CUTTING (Fig. 4 - 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 aline the fence central hole to the required
circle’s center. Pushing a nail, with a diameter no more
than 6mm into the hole, to firmly fix the fence. Move the
tool around the nail in a clockwise direction.
ADJUSTING THE
GUIDE
(Fig. 7 & 8)
It is much easier to use the adjusting guide for curve
cutting and trimming. Move the guide along the curved
edge.
Tighten the screw to install the adjusting guide on the tool
base plate. Loosen the wing bolt to adjust the guide.
Then tighten the screw firmly to fix the adjusting guide at
a required distance.
Install the guide into the base by bolt A. Adjust the

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 turning your trimmer ON, be prepared
for start-up torque. Always have a firm 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.
