Always use both grips and firmly hold the tool by both
grips during operations.
Set the tool base on the workpiece to be cut without the
bit making any contact. Then turn the tool on and wait
until the bit attains full speed. Lower the tool body and
move the tool forward over the workpiece surface,
keeping the tool base flush and advancing smoothly until
the cutting is complete.
When doing edge cutting, the workpiece surface should
be on the left side of the bit in the feed direction.

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.

The straight guide is effectively used for straight cuts
when chamfering or grooving.
Install the straight guide on the guide holder with the
clamping screw (B). Insert the guide holder into the
holes in the tool base and tighten the clamping screw (A).
To adjust the distance between the bit and the straight
guide, loosen the clamping screw (B) and turn the fine
adjusting screw (1.5 mm or about 1/16" per turn). At the
desired distance, tighten the clamping screw (B) to
secure the straight guide in place.

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.
If the distance between the side of the workpiece and
the cutting position is too wide for the straight guide, or if
the side of the workpiece is not straight, the straight
