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. Lower the tool body and
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.
(see
the figure below).

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
straight guide or
the
trimmer guide, be sure to
install
it
on
the
right side
in the feed direction. This will help to keep
it
flush with the side of the workpiece.
