prevent movement during shipment and is in the

down position.

Referring to Figure 1:

1. Using a 10mm wrench loosen three lock nuts.

2. With a 3mm hex wrench loosen three gib

screws the same amount. Loosen enough to

permit the head to move freely on the column.

Do not tighten. The gib adjustment will be done

later.

Contents of the Mortiser Carton

Figure 1

Operating Handle

Referring to Figure 2:

The operating handle can be mounted on either

the left- or right-hand side of the mortiser. The

handle hub (D) comes mounted on the right-hand

side from the factory. If right-hand operation is

desired skip steps 1–3 and proceed to step 4. For

left-hand operation the hub must be moved to the

left side as follows:

1. Unscrew and remove the hub lock knob (A),

flat washer (B), spring (C) and hub (D) from

the pinion shaft (E).

2. Remove the protective sleeve from the gear

shaft on the left side of the mortiser.

3. Install the hub (D), spring (C) and flat washer

(B) on the left-side pinion shaft and secure the

assembly with the hub lock knob (A).

Referring to Figure 3:

4. Loosen the lock handle (F) located on the

hub (H).

5. Insert the operating handle into the bracket on

the hub. Position the upper part of the handle

away from the mortiser allowing it to clear the

switch box during operation.

Note: If handle is mounted on the right side,

also position the handle so the upper portion is

away from the mortiser

Note: The handle assembly is spring-loaded

permitting the operating handle to be repositioned

by pulling out the hub (H) and repositioning it in 36º

increments (ten positions total) on the pinion shaft.

Gib Adjustment

Now that the operating handle has been installed,

the gib screws that were previously loosened

should be adjusted.

Alternately raise and lower the mortiser head with

the operating handle, then adjust each of the three

set screws (Figure 1) with a 3mm hex wrench the

same number of turns.

Tighten the set screws to remove play from the

column but do not over tighten such that it is

difficult to raise and lower the operating handle.

When adjustment is complete, tighten the lock nut

with a 10mm wrench while maintaining the position

of the setscrew with the 3 mm hex wrench.

Figure 2

Figure 3

Overview – Chuck Extension

Do you need it

The 701 Mortiser comes with the chuck already

assembled at the factory, intended to be used with

augers having long shanks. Augers come with long

or short shanks (Figure 4) depending on the

manufacturer.

Long shank augers

If you plan to install an auger with a long shank,

you can skip this section and proceed to the

Installing Chisel and Auger section on page 10.

Short shank augers

If you plan to install an auger with a short shank,

proceed to Installing the Chuck Extension section.

Installing the Chuck Extension

Referring to Figure 4, remove the chuck from the

motor shaft as follows:

1. Open door (A).

2. Unscrew and remove the chuck (B) from the

motor shaft (C) using a 12mm wrench placed

on the flat indents of the shaft (C) and the

chuck key in the chuck (B).

3. Thread the chuck extension (D) onto the motor

shaft (C).

4. Tighten using 12mm and 14mm wrenches

respectively on flat sides of the motor shaft (C)

and chuck extension (D).

5. Thread the chuck (B) onto the chuck

extension (D).

6. Tighten using a 14mm wrench on flat sides of

the chuck extension (D) and the chuck key in

the chuck (B).

Figure 4

Figure 5

Installing Chisel and Auger

Referring to Figure 6:

1. Open door (A).

2. Swing two bushing spacers (B) away from the

head (C).

3. Loosen the lock screw (D).

4. Insert the chisel bushing* (E) into the head (C),

lining up the hole (F) with the lock screw (D).

5. Set the lock screw (D) so the threaded end

extends into the hole (F) of the bushing (E),

holding it in place. The bushing should still

have about 1/4" of vertical travel margin.

The chisel to auger clearance (see Figure 6) is

the vertical c

learance between the auger and

chisel.

When assembled, the proper chisel to

auger clearance is dependant on the chisel size

and the position of the chisel (adjustable) with

respect to the auger (which is fixed). The

position of the chisel is set with spacers

described in the following steps.

6. Position spacers (B) so they rest against the

bushing above the lip (J).

Number of spacers to use:

 For chisels 1/2" or less – use the

upper spacer only

 For chisels greater than 1/2" – use

both spacers

Chisels are extremely sharp.

Use extreme care when handling to prevent

personal injury.

7. Insert the auger (K) into the chisel (L). Then

insert the assembly through the bushing (E).

Using gloves or a block of wood, press up on

the auger as far as it will go. The shank should

slide into the opening in the bottom of the

chuck (M).

8. Using the chuck key, tighten the chuck (M) to

secure the auger (K).

9. Move the spacers (B) away from the

bushing (E), push the chisel and bushing up

against the head (C); then tighten the lock

screw (D).

Hint: Set the s

lot in the side of the chisel to the left

or right if the workpiece is to be moved laterally

and front or back if it is to be moved from front to

back. The workpiece should be moved so that the

slot in the chisel is releasing chips into the already

cut part of the workpiece (see Figure 14).

* Only if changing bushings. The 701 Mortiser comes with the

5/8" bushing already installed.

Figure 6

Note: This would be a good time to make sure that

the chisel is parallel to the workpiece. See the

Chisel Parallel to Workpiece section.

Securing Mortiser to Work Bench

It is highly recommended to secure the mortiser to

the workbench to prevent the possibility of tipping,

sliding or "walking" during operation.

Secure the mortiser to the bench with fasteners

(not supplied) through four holes located in the

base (Figure 7).

Tool Holder

Referring to Figure 8:

The 701 Bench-top Mortiser has a tool holder (A)

that is installed at the factory and requires no

assembly. It can be used to store the extra bushing

(B), chuck key (C), extension (D) as well as any

additional chisels and accessories.

Diamond Sharpening Cone

Referring to Figure 8:

1. From hardware kit insert the diamond

sharpening cone (E) into the opening (F) at the

top of the column.

2. Secure with the setscrew (G). The threaded

opening is located behind the tool holder (A)

which needs to be raised to access.

Electrical

115V/230V Operation

The Powermatic 701 Mortiser comes pre-wired

from the factory to operate at 115V. The motor can

be rewired to operate at 230V (see Wiring

Diagram) which will also require a 230V plug and

electrical outlet. If unsure, consult a qualified

electrician.

Power Connection

Do not operate this machine in

damp locations.

A separate electrical circuit should be used for your

machines. This circuit should be protected with a

15 Amp time lag fuse. If an extension cord is used,

use only 3-wire extension cords which have

3-prong grounding type plugs and matching

receptacle, which will accept the machine’s plug.

Before connecting the machine to the power line,

make sure the switch is in the Off position and be

sure that the electric current is of the same

characteristics as indicated on the machine. All line

connections should make good contact. Running

on low voltage will damage the machine.

Figure 7

Figure 8

Figure 9

Grounding Instructions

This machine must be

grounded while in use to protect the user from

shock

In the event of a malfunction or breakdown,

grounding provides a path of least resistance for

electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock.

If you are not sure whether your outlet is properly

grounded, consult a qualified electrician.

Referring to Figure 9: As received from the factory,

your mortiser is ready to run at 115-volt operation.

This mortiser is intended for use on a circuit that

has an outlet and a plug that looks like the one

illustrated in (A). A temporary adaptor, which looks

like the adaptor shown in (B), may be used to

connect this plug to a two-pole receptacle if a

properly grounded outlet is not available. The

temporary adaptor should only be used until a

properly grounded outlet can be installed by a

qualified electrician. This adaptor is not applicable

in Canada. The green colored rigid ear, lug, or tab,

extending from the adaptor, must be connected to

a permanent ground such as a properly grounded

outlet box.

Operating Controls

Start/Stop Switch

Referring to Figure 10:

The Start/Stop switch is located to the left of the

motor. Flip the switch out to start; flip in to stop.

The yellow insert is a switch lock which prevents

the mortiser from being started when removed.

Adjustments

Depth Stop Adjustment

Referring to Figure 11:

A depth stop is provided to limit the depth, or

downward travel, of the chisel. This enables the

operator to make repeated boring operations

without the need to measure each bore. To adjust:

1. Loosen the lock handle (A) and bring the depth

stop (B) to rest at the bottom of the column.

2. With the operating handle (C) lower the

head (D) until the chisel (E) is at the desired

depth.

3. Bring the depth stop (B) up until it comes to

rest against the bottom of the head (D).

4. Tighten the lock handle (A).

Figure 10

Figure 11

Handle Position Adjustment

Referring to Figure 11:

The handle assembly is spring-loaded permitting

the operating handle (C) to be repositioned by

pulling out the hub (F) and repositioning it (G) in

36º increments on the pinion shaft for a total of ten

available positions.

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

casting to preserve the clearance setting.

Figure 12

Fence and Clamp

Referring to Figure 13:

The 701 Mortiser is equipped with a

forward/backward movement adjustable fence (B)

and hold-down clamp (F, K, L) for securing the

workpiece during mortising operations.

Fence Adjustment

To adjust the fence (B) forward or backward:

1. Loosen two clamps (A) that lock the fence.

2. Turn the knob (C) and adjust the fence (B)

forward or backward (D) to the desired

position.

3. Lock the clamps (A).

Hold-down Clamp

There are two ways that the hold-down clamp can

be used. Both options are described below.

Option One – workpiece securely clamped to the

table. If multiple mortises are needed, this will

require the clamp to be loosened, workpiece

moved, and clamp secured again.

To clamp the workpiece:

1. Loosen the clamp lock knob (H) and clamp

position lock knob (G).

2. Place the workpiece on the table (E) under the

prongs of the clamp (F) (see Note below) and

against the fence.

3. Tighten the clamp lock knob (H) until the

workpiece is secured.

Option two – workpiece partially clamped. If

multiple mortises are needed, the workpiece can

be moved by hand without repetitively loosening

and tightening the clamp.

To clamp the workpiece:

1. Loosen the clamp lock knob (H) and clamp

position lock knob (G).

2. Place the workpiece on the table (E) (see Note

below) under the prongs of the clamp (F) and

against the fence (B).

3. Bring the clamp down so the prongs rest on

the workpiece, but do not press against the

workpiece.

4. Tighten the clamp position lock knob (G).

This will constrain the workpiece and prevent it

from being lifted when the chisel is raised, yet

still allow the workpiece to be repositioned by

hand. However, the operator will still need to

hold the workpiece in position against the

fence.

Figure 13

The following step is an option which will hold the

workpiece securely against the fence yet still allow

operator to reposition by hand.

5. Loosen the roller guides lock knobs (K).

6. Press the tabs (L) to secure the workpiece

between the wheels (M) and fence (B).

7. Tighten the lock knobs (K).

Note: If needed, the hold-down clamp can be

reversed (K, L) to accommodate a wide range of

wood thicknesses.

Operation

1. Set the depth stop to the required depth of cut

(refer to the Depth Stop Adjustment section on

page 12).

2. Place workpiece on table and against the

fence.

3. Adjust the fence until the workpiece is in the

correct position (see the Fence and Clamp

section on page 14).

4. Clamp the workpiece or set the clamp to the

desired height as described in the Fence and

Clamp section on page 14)

Before turning the machine on,

verify that the chuck key is not in the chuck.

5. Turn on the machine and feed the chisel and

auger steadily into workpiece by pulling down

the operating handle.

After the first cut, move the workpiece along for

each successive cut. The direction of movement

must allow the chips to clear freely. Move the

workpiece so that the slot in the chisel is releasing

chips into the already cut part of the workpiece

(Figure 14).

Do not have the chisel slot

against the blind end of the mortise, as the

chips will not be able to clear the chisel. This

can cause overheating and possible breakage

of chisel or auger.

When cutting deep mortises, make the cut in

several stages of approximately 1" each, to allow

chips to clear. To prevent breakout at the back of

the workpiece when cutting through mortises, use

a piece of scrap material under the workpiece as

support.

Rotating Column

Referring to Figure 15:

The column can be rotated 180º as shown to

permit mortising large workpieces off the table. To

rotate the column:

1. Using a 4mm hex wrench, remove four screws,

lock washers and flat washers (C) Note: only

one screw is visible in Figure 15.

2. Rotate the column (A) 180º.

3. Replace the four screws, lock washers and flat

washers.

The base must be secured to

the work bench.

Figure 14

Figure 15

Maintenance

Before any intervention on the

machine, disconnect it from the electrical

supply by pulling out the plug or switching off

the main switch! Failure to comply may cause

serious injury.

General

A coat of paste wax applied to the table and

column will help to keep the surfaces clean.

If the power cord is worn, cut, or damaged in any

way, have it replaced immediately.

The Mortiser requires only minor maintenance,

such as cleaning and lubrication and routine

adjustment and sharpening of the chisel and

auger.

Dust the machine down after each use and, as

necessary, use light applications of oil or grease to

lubricate linkages, moving parts, etc.

Sharpening Chisel and Auger

The chisel and auger should be kept sharp for best

performance. Blunt edges will give inaccurate

mortises and can lead to overheating and

breakage to chisel or auger. If chisel and auger are

badly worn and become difficult to sharpen, they

should be replaced.

Auger

Sharpen the auger by using a small, smooth file,

following the original shape of the auger. File the

inside edge of the spur, the sides of the brad point,

and the cutting edge inwards toward the flute of

the auger (Figure 16).

Do not file the outside edge of the spur, as this will

affect the diameter of the auger.

Chisel

Referring to Figure 17:

Sharpen the chisel (A) with the chisel sharpening

cone (B) located on the top of the column next to

the tool holder. Set the chisel (A) on the

sharpening cone (B) and rotate back and forth until

sharpened (C).

Note: Make sure the set-screw is tight to prevent

the cone from spinning.

Using a fine stone or micro-abrasive on a flat

surface, lap the outside faces of the mortise bit to

remove any burrs.

Figure 17

Lubrication

All of the ball bearings are packed with grease at

the factory. They require no further lubrication.

Periodically grease the gears, racks, and table

pivot points with a #2 tube grease.

Periodically clean and oil any exposed machine

surfaces, such as: dove-tail ways and slides, and

table surface.

Storage

If the mortiser will be stored for an extended

period, use the depth stop to help secure the head

in position; this will relieve stress upon the

hydraulic cylinder.
