Chisel Parallel to Workpiece

Referring to Figure 12:

The chisel can be adjusted parallel to the workpiece as follows:

1.Loosen the two clamps (A) that secure the fence (B).

2.With the adjust knob (C), move the fence back far enough to insert the workpiece (D) between the chisel (F) and fence (B). Raise the workpiece hold-down clamp (E) if necessary.

3.With the operating handle (G) bring the head down until the chisel points are almost at the table level.

4.Bring the fence (B) forward with the adjust knob (C) until the front edge of the workpiece (D) rests against the back surface of the chisel (F), but do not force.

5.Loosen the chisel lock handle (H). This will allow the chisel to rotate.

Further adjust the chisel by hand if needed.
6. Tighten the lock handle (H) while making sure
the bushing maintains contact with the head	Figure 12
