This benchtop morticer has the huge benefit of both lateral (side to side, Y axis) and longitudinal (front to back, X axis) movement, both controlled by hand wheels. There's no more jigging and shimming to get the mortice positioning spot on. The table and headstock run on dovetail slides and are provided with adjustable jib strips ensuring years of accurate use. The work clamp is positioned with a locating pin and can even clamp tapered work such as table legs. A gas strut counterbalances the weight of the head and motor. A quiet and cool running alloy bodied motor provides ample power. Stops are provided for both vertical and horizontal movements for repeat work. Supplied with drill chuck and key, chisel bush and service tools. N.B. takes 3/4" shank chisels only.
