Turning On the Joiner
WARNING: Never turn the tool on when the Fence Body is removed, as this exposes the spinning cutter.
Before turning the tool on, make sure all adjustment handles are locked and the tool is safe to turn on.
The power switch for the Domino joiner locks into the On position when activated. When working with the tool for the first time, it is recommended that you become familiar with the operation of the switch before you plug the tool in to a power outlet.
To turn the joiner on, push forward and down on the power switch. To turn the joiner off, press down on the back of the power switch to release the latch.
Using Dust Extraction
The Domino machine is intended to be used with a dust extraction system. Using the machine without dust extraction will cause it to clog with wood chips.
When installing a Festool dust extraction hose onto the dust port of the machine, it is easiest to insert the hose at an angle and then push it on the rest of the way as shown to the right.
If you have another vacuum system and the hose does not fit the dust extraction port, a Festool hose will fit many other brands of vacuums.
Using the Locating Pins
The locating pins on the front of the fence are used to register the tool against the edge of the workpiece or against a previously machined mortise slot. This provides rapid and precise placement of the tool on the workpiece.
►When the locating pin is against the edge of the workpiece, the edge will be visible in the point of the verification window on the fence.
►The distance between the locating pin and the center of the mortise slot is 37mm
►The locating pins can also be used to register the next mortise by inserting the pin into a previous mortise slot.
