Benchtop Mortiser, 3/4" Chisel, 5-1/2" Stroke, 115/230V 1Ph (PM701)

The Powermatic PM701 benchtop mortiser delivers precise mortising performance in a compact, bench-mounted design. Operating on 115/230V single-phase power, this mortiser features an in-line depth stop that allows repeatable plunge depths without racking the chisel or bit. A reversible heavy-duty operating handle can be repositioned tool-free for user comfort, while the dual-lock stock hold-down secures material from both the side and top to prevent movement during cutting. Fence positioning is controlled by a rack-and-pinion system with a quick-action cam lock for fast, accurate setup. Integrated bit and chisel spacers simplify initial setup, and a hinged chuck access door allows easy bit changes, making the PM701 well suited for precision joinery in smaller shops.
