Holzmann STM26 Chisel Mortiser

This Holzmann STM26 floorstanding hollow chisel mortiser has a huge timber capacity and can cut to the full depth of the chisel. Use of cast iron gives the entire machine strength and solidity allowing larger sizes of chisels to be used without flexing. The down feed handle can be adjusted so that a comfortable starting position can always be found. When cutting mortices in smaller timber the head can be lowered, so that the starting point of the chisel is just above the timber, which speeds up cutting. When working with this machine the timber is held in place by a front clamp with a quick action lock and two further cam lock clamps which hold the timber firmly down against the table, to prevent lifting when raising the chisel.
