A robust mortiser of cast iron construction, plenty of power to cut 19mm mortises. The table movement is controlled by two hand wheels, one for longitudinal and one for the transverse movement; the movement is smooth and precise with dovetail slides and jib strips for longer life. The table has a wooden facing for through mortising as well as a length stop for repetition work, a quick acting vice and two cam-operated work clamps. The down feed handle can be easily re-positioned on its shaft to give the most convenient working position. The weight of the head is counter balanced by a gas strut and the up and down movement is controlled by a pair of stops and an easy-to-read scale. Supplied with cabinet stand and handy storage cupboard. Supplied with one 5/8" chisel.
