HOW TO USE

1. Adjustment of cutting depth

(1) Loosen the wing nut on the base ass'y.

(2) Move the base ass'y up and down by turning knob

bolt (A) and fit the front end of base with the

pointed end of the bit. (Fig. 3)

(3) Read the value indicated by the top of the base

ass'y. (A in Fig. 4)

(4) Move the base ass'y to the cutting depth.

(5) After moving the base ass'y to the cutting depth,

tighten wing nut securely. (Fig. 4)

2. Cutting

It is recommended that the most appropriate guide

be used which is suitable to the type of the work

in order to carry out the work exactly without failure.

(Refer to "How to use guide".) The material to be

processed should be firmly fixed.

(1) Keep the bit separated from the material and hold

the body firmly before switch is turned on. (Fig. 5)

(2) Feeding direction

The bit rotates clockwise as seen from above. Use

the unit by feeding the trimmer in the direction

shown in Fig. 6. If the trimmer is fed in the reverse

direction as shown in the figure, you will receive

reaction of the bit and finishing of the plane to be

cut becomes coarse.

3. Base angle adjustment

Loosen the right and left wing bolts and adjust the

base angle. (Fig. 7)

The interval of the embossed graduations is 5˚. Lay

a ruler, etc., along the side of the base for use in

chamfering work.

HOW TO USE GUIDE

NOTE:

Avoid tilting the base when the guide is used.

1. Trimmer guide

Application:

The guide is handy when used in processing of

materials such as trimming and beveling of plywood.

(1) Fit the trimmer guide on the base with knob bolt

(B).

(2) Loosen knob bolt (B) to move the trimmer guide

up and down.

(3) Loosen knob bolt (C) and turn the stop screw to

move the guide pin. (Fig. 8)

After moving the guide pin, tighten knob bolt (C)

to secure it.

(4) When cutting refer to term "Feeding direction" in

"How to use". (Fig. 9)

2. Straight guide

Application:

It is handy when used for linear processing work

such as beveling, grooving and the like.

(1) Fit the straight guide with knob bolt (B) on the base

and fix it.

(2) Adjust the length "B" from the bit to the surface

of straight guide by loosening the knob bolt (D) and

rnoving the straight guide as necessary (Fig. 10)

(3) When cutting refer to term "Feeding direction" in

"How to use". (Fig. 11)

3. Template guide

Application:

It is handy to process with a template a number

of materials in one same shape.

(In this case 6 × 6 mm or 6.35 × 6.35 mm

(1/ 4" × 1/4") straight bit is usable.)

(1) Remove the base ass'y from the main unit.

(2) Loosen the right and left wing bolts and secure the

base horizontally.

(3) Install the template in the recessed part of the base

and secure it with two screws.

NOTE:

Tighten the two screws moderately. Optimum

tightening torque is 10-15 kg-cm.

(4) Install the base ass'y in the main unit. (Fig. 13)

CAUTION

When fit the template guide, the upper part of the

template guide must not touch the collet chuck.

(5) Securely fix the template to the workpiece. Feed the

trimmer following the template. (Fig. 13)

Template

Template is referred to also as profillig mold and

is made from a plywood or a thin wooden plate.

Be careful of the following in producing a

template:

When putting following the inner edge of the

template, the workpiece is cut smaller because

of the distance between the template guide and

bit edge (with a 6 × 6 mm straight bit: 2.0 mm

or 6.35 × 6.35 mm (1/4" × 1/4"): 1.8 mm). By

following the outer edge of the template, the

workpiece is cut larger. (Figs. 14 and 15)

The thickness of the template should be 5 mm

or more.

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

1. Inspecting the bit

Continued use of a dull or damaged bit will result

in reduced cutting efficiency and may cause

overloading of the motor. Replace the bit with a

new one as soon as excessive abrasion is noted.

2. Inspecting the mounting screws

Regularly inspect all mounting screws and ensure

that they are properly tightened. Should any of the

screws be loose, retighten them immediately. Failure

to do so could result in serious hazard.

3. Maintenance of the motor

The motor unit winding is the very “heart” of the

power tool. Exercise due care to ensure the winding

does not become damaged and/or wet with oil or

water.

4. Inspecting the carbon brushes (Fig. 16)

The motor employs carbon brushes which are

consumable parts. Since an excessively worn carbon

brush can result in motor trouble, replace the carbon

brush with new ones having the same carbon brush

No. shown in the figure when they becomes worn

to or near the “wear limit”. In addition, always keep

carbon brushes clean and ensure that they slide

freely within the brush holders.

5. Replacing carbon brushes

Disassemble the brush caps with a slotted-head

screwdriver. The carbon brushes can then be easily

removed.
