ASSEMBLY

Chip Guard Assembly

The chip guard can be mounted (optional) to to block flying

chips during operation. Remove the rear screw and nut of the

guard and press it over the quill above the black set screw (Fig.

9 - 1). Reinstall the screw and nut to secure the guard in place.

The chip guard is adjustable and can be lifted up out of the way

when necessary. You can also lengthen the guard by loosening

the wing nuts on the sides and sliding the rear guard down, then

re-tightening the nuts.

STEP 7: MOUNTING TO A BENCHTOP (Fig. 8)

Unit: millimeters

For effective and safe operation, the mor-

tiser must be mounted to a secure work-

bench.

The base of this machine has two mount-

ing holes, each with a diameter of 1/2" (12

mm). Refer to the base graph (Fig. 9) for

detailed base dimensions of your machine.

The recommended mounting option is

“through mounting”, where a hex bolt is

drilled all the way through a flat washer,

the machine base, the workbench, another

flat washer, a spring washer, and tightened

with a hex nut. This allows for maximum

stability of the machine to prevent moving

during operation.
