MORTISING MACHINE WITH TILTING HEAD

The CX302 Mortising Machine with Tilting Head is built for accurate, repeatable mortising in a wide range of woodworking applications. Its heavy-duty cast iron construction provides a stable platform, while the 3/4 HP motor delivers dependable power for chisels from 1/4" to 5/8".

The head tilts from 0° to 30° to both the left and right, making it easier to create angled mortises without repositioning the workpiece. A rack-and-pinion head mechanism provides added leverage and controlled feed, while the gas head cylinder supports smooth vertical movement during operation.

For repetitive work, the large sliding table offers 16" of travel and helps position material accurately from cut to cut. A quick-release vise, adjustable depth and height stops, nine-position hold-down system, and long multi-position handle further improve setup, control, and ease of use.

Finished in durable powder-coated paint with the distinctive CX-Series two-tone colour scheme, the CX302 is CSA approved and backed by a three-year warranty.
