Tool Storage

Operating Controls
The magnetic starter with control buttons is
mounted to the motor. Press the “start” button to
begin rotation of the auger. Press the “stop”
button to stop rotation of the auger. The auger
will quickly coast to a stop after the “stop” button
is pressed.
The magnetic starter is a valuable safety feature
of the Mortiser. Should electrical power
suddenly be cut off while the mortiser is being
operated, the magnetic starter will prevent the
machine from immediately re-starting when
power is restored. To re-start the Mortiser you
must press the “on” button.
