Do not attempt to operate the Cordless Slot Machine before charging the battery.
Plug the charger into a 110-120 volt AC wall outlet, and insert the charger plug all the way into
the charge jack on the Slot Machine until you feel the plug "click" into place. Charge for 3 to 4
hours the first time, and whenever the batteries have been run way down or have not been
charged for several weeks. The battery will be fully charged in 3 to 4 hours, but the charger may
be left plugged in for longer periods of time, up to several days. Unplug the charger from the Slot
Machine and from the wall outlet during long periods (weeks or months) of inactivity.To maintain
a high level of charge, providing maximum slotting power, it is recommended to leave the
charger plugged into the Slot Machine between slotting sessions.
Starting with a run-down battery...
A 1 hour charge provides 60% capacity.
A 2 hour charge provides 90% capacity.
NOTE: Fast charging with any charger other than the one provided with the Cordless Slot
Machine is not recommended.
The Slot Machine produces hinge slots in balsa wood by means of two thin saw blades that
reciprocate in opposite directions, similar to an electric carving knife. The force caused by
one blade is offset by the other blade, so the effect is a straight-in cut with minimal effort.
If this is your first time using the Slot Machine, practice cutting slots in scraps of 3/8" or 1/4"
balsa sheet until you are able to make consistently good slots that are in correct alignment
on the hinge line. The tool may seem a bit awkward at first, because you've never used
anything like it; but with a little practice you'll soon be wondering how you ever got along
without it. If you have a lot of difficulty making good slots, read the "Troubleshooting" section
and look for problems in technique or blade alignment that may be causing the problem.
You may also want to try the optional Great Planes Slot Machine Cutting Guide
(GPMR4013) , which helps get your slots precisely started every time.
Note: The Slot Machine is designed to cut hinge slots in balsa wood. Using it in "soft
hardwood" such as basswood may be successful if care is used. Do not attempt to use it
in very hard wood such as birch, maple or oak.
Mark accurate hinge lines on your control surfaces and the structures to which they will be
attached. Using the Great Planes Precision Hinge Marking Tool
is recommended.
