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.

When using a large diameter bit, attach pieces of wood to the
straight guide which have a thickness of more than 15 mm
(5/8") to prevent the bit from striking the straight guide.
When cutting, move the tool with the straight guide flush
with the side of the workpiece.
Templet guide (optional accessory)
003688
The templet guide provides a sleeve through which the
bit passes, allowing use of the tool with templet patterns.
To install the templet guide, loosen the screws on the tool
base, insert the templet guide and then tighten the screws.
