WARNING: • Before using the tool with the trimmer base, always install the dust nozzle on the trimmer base. 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. 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. 1 4 2 3 2 4 2 1 1. Feed direction 3 2. Bit revolving direction 3. Workpiece 4.

Feed direction 001984 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 3 mm (1/8") at a pass when cutting grooves. When you wish to cut grooves more than 3 mm (1/8") deep, make several passes with progressively deeper bit settings. 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 trimmer shoe, the straight guide or the trimmer guide, be sure to keep it on the right side in the feed direction. This will help to keep it flush with the side of the workpiece. 011838 The templet guide provides a sleeve through which the bit passes, allowing use of the trimmer with templet patterns. Loosen the screws and remove the base protector. Place the templet guide on the base and replace the base protector. Then secure the base protector by tightening the screws. 1. Base protector 1 2.
