rates of feed for different woods must be learned
through experience.
• After the first cut, the work piece is moved along
with the left hand wheel for each successive cut.
The direction of movement must allow the chips
to clear freely. Move the work piece so that the
slot in the chisel is releasing the chips into the
already cut part of the work piece – see Fig. 5.
Attention:
Not observing this working method can lead to
overheating and a possible breakage of chisel
and bit.
When cutting deep mortises, make the cut in
The electric motor is connected in a ready-to-
operate state. The connection corresponds to the
relevant VDE and DIN regulations.
The mains connection at the customer's work
place and the extension cable used must corres-
pond to these regulations.
Important information
The 230 V / 50 Hz electric motor is designed for
the S6 / 40% operating mode.

The motor automatically switches off if it is over-
loaded. The motor can be switched on again after
a cooling-down period (varies timewise).
Faulty electrical connecting leads
Insulation damage often occurs at electrical con-
necting leads.
Causes include:
• Pressure marks caused when connecting leads
are run through windows or the cracks of doors.
• Folds caused by the improper attachment of
running of the connecting leads.
• Cutsresulting from the crossing of the connec-
ting lead.
• Insulation damages caused by the ripping out of
the connecting lead from the wall socket.
• Cracks due to the ageing of the insulation.
Faulty electrical connecting leads such as these
may not be used and are highly dangerous due to
the insulation damage.
Check electrical connecting leads regularly for
The mortiser requires only minor maintenance,
such as cleaning and lubrication and routine ad-
justment and sharpening of the chisel and bit.

piece as support.
damage. Ensure that the connecting lead is
not attached to the mains supply when you are
checking it.
Electrical connecting leads must correspond to
the relevant VDE and DIN regulations. Only use
connecting leads with the code H 07 RN. The type
designation must be printed on the connecting
lead by regulation.

• The supply voltage must be 230 volt – 50 Hz.
• Extension leads up to 25 m in length must have
a cross-section of 1.5 mm2. Extension leads
whose length is over 25 m must have a cross-
section of at least 2.5 mm2.
• The mains connection is fused with a 16 A slow-
blow fuse.
Connections or repairs on the electrical
equipment may only be carried out by an
electrician.
