Adjusting
Depth Stop
When adjusted correctly, the depth stop ensures
that the mortise is not cut too deep and that
repeated mortise depths are consistent. Always
make the mortise at least an
tenon to allow room for excess glue.
To adjust depth stop:
1.
Loosen knob on depth stop.
2.
Lower chisel to depth required for operation.
Tip: Before cutting mortise, mark depth of cut
required on workpiece (see Figure 25).
