Place the tool on the rear end of guide rail. Turn two
adjusting screws on the tool base so that the tool slides
smoothly without a clatter. Hold the tool firmly. The tool is
provided with both a front grip and rear handle. Use both
to best grasp the tool. Turn on the tool, press down the
tool to the preset depth of cut and cut the splinterguard
along the full length with a stroke. The edge of the
splinterguard corresponds to the cutting edge.
When bevel cutting with the guide rail, slide the slide
lever on the tool base so that the tool does not fall down
on its side.

the screws on the front and the back of the base. It also

Overturning the rip fence (guide rule) also works as a
sub base for the tool.
