Securing Mortiser to Work Bench
It is highly recommended to secure the mortiser to
the workbench to prevent the possibility of tipping,
sliding or "walking" during operation.
Secure the mortiser to the bench with fasteners
(not supplied) through four holes located in the
base (Figure 7).
Tool Holder
Referring to Figure 8:
The 701 Bench-top Mortiser has a tool holder (A)
that is installed at the factory and requires no
assembly. It can be used to store the extra bushing
(B), chuck key (C), extension (D) as well as any
additional chisels and accessories.
Diamond Sharpening Cone
Referring to Figure 8:
1. From hardware kit insert the diamond
sharpening cone (E) into the opening (F) at the
top of the column.
2. Secure with the setscrew (G). The threaded
opening is located behind the tool holder (A)
which needs to be raised to access.
Electrical
115V/230V Operation
The Powermatic 701 Mortiser comes pre-wired
from the factory to operate at 115V. The motor can
be rewired to operate at 230V (see Wiring
Diagram) which will also require a 230V plug and
electrical outlet. If unsure, consult a qualified
electrician.
Power Connection
Do not operate this machine in
damp locations.
A separate electrical circuit should be used for your
machines. This circuit should be protected with a
15 Amp time lag fuse. If an extension cord is used,
use only 3-wire extension cords which have
3-prong grounding type plugs and matching
receptacle, which will accept the machine’s plug.
Before connecting the machine to the power line,
make sure the switch is in the Off position and be
sure that the electric current is of the same
characteristics as indicated on the machine. All line
connections should make good contact. Running
on low voltage will damage the machine.
