DESCRIPTION
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before adjusting or checking function
on the tool.

Adjusting the depth of cut

► 1. Scale ring 2. Clamp screw
Place the tool on a flat surface. Turn the scale ring
until it makes contact with the base. Loosen the clamp
screw. Turn the scale ring until the bit just touches the
flat surface. Tighten the clamp screw.
Place the tool on its side and turn the scale ring coun-
terclockwise (when viewing the tool from the top) until
the desired depth of cut is obtained. One full turn of
the scale ring is equal to 1/4" change in depth setting.
Loosen the clamp screw and move the tool base until
it makes contact with the scale ring. Then tighten the
clamp screw securely.

CAUTION:
Since excessive cutting may cause overload of
the motor or difficulty in controlling the tool, the
depth of cut should not be more than 15 mm
(9/16") at a pass when cutting grooves with a 6
mm (1/4") diameter bit.
When cutting grooves with a 20 mm (13/16")
diameter bit, the depth of cut should not be more
than 5 mm (3/16") at a pass.
When you wish to cut grooves more than 15
mm (9/16") deep with a 6 mm (1/4") diameter bit
or more than 5 mm (3/16") deep with a 20 mm
(13/16") diameter bit, make several passes with
progressively deeper bit settings.
CAUTION:
Before plugging in the tool, always check to see
that the tool is switched off.
Switch can be locked in "ON" position for ease
of operator comfort during extended use. Apply
caution when locking tool in "ON" position and
maintain firm grasp on tool.
Make sure that the shaft lock is released before
the switch is turned on.
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before carrying out any work on the
tool.
