DOMINO Joinery System booklet

The mortise height setting on both the DOMINO DF 500 and the DF 700 is performed using the height stop, allowing predefined heights to be used. Alternatively, any individual dimension can be set using the scale. The mortise height is the distance from the top of the workpiece to the center of the mortise. Selection of the routing height depends on the thickness of material being used and the type of joint being produced. Here, it is not absolutely necessary for the routed mortise to be in the center of the material. You can find more information on the topic of routing height in the description of the individual applications in section 4. 1.4.6 Height adjustment range

DF 500 – set routing height using the board thickness gauge. The dimension selected with the board thickness gauge will place the mortise in the center of the selected measurement on the gauge. Release the fence height locking lever and raise the fence using the auxiliary handle. Now select the required board thickness using the gauge. (16 mm, 20 mm, 22 mm, 25 mm, 28 mm, 36 mm, 40 mm). Then push the fence downwards until it stops and tighten the fence height locking lever.
