Festool Domino Machine Instruction Manual - page 11

The vertical centerline of the cutter is also 

marked in several other ways (red ar-

rows) as well:  by the “V” cast into the 

fence base, by the line scribed on the 

clear plastic 

reference 

scale attached 

to the moving 

portion of the 

fence (note 

the hole in the 

plastic denot-

ing center), 

and the point 

of the triangle 

cast into the 

moving portion 

of the fence.  

The outer two 

triangles 

(green arrows)  

cast into the 

moving portion of the fence have points 

that are exactly 74mm apart, the same 

as,  and aligned with, the 

inside

 edges of 

the spring loaded alignment pins (blue 

arrows).

There is yet one further set of marks de-

noting the vertical centerline of the cutter.  

These are scribed on the bottom of the 

base of the fence (the fixed portion).  I 

placed a rule on the inverted base of the 

fence for the bottom left photo so you can 

see the centerline of the cutter lined up 

with 37mm 

on the rule.  

The left end 

lines up 

with the 

mark for 

the inside 

of the left 

spring 

loaded 

alignment 

pin while 

the mark 

denoting 

the inside 

of the right 

alignment 

pin is at 

74mm.  

5mm beyond the left end of the rule and 

the 74mm mark are lines denoting the 

outside

 edges of the alignment pins.

Two additional sets of scribe lines are set 

15mm from the vertical centerline of the 

bit (the shorter lines) and 20mm from the 

bit center (the longer lines).  

The photos above show 

the clear plastic alignment 

scale that tilts with the
