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.
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 (optional accessory)
The straight guide is effectively used for straight cuts when
chamfering or grooving.
Screw the guide bars into the holes in the tool base.
Install the straight guide on the guide bars and adjust the dis-
tance between the bit and the straight guide. At the desired
distance, tighten the wing bolts to secure the straight guide in
place.
When cutting, move the tool with the straight guide flush with
the side of the workpiece.
