2) ELECTRICAL SAFETY a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock. b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded. c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control. g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance with these instructions taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation. 5) SERVICE a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts.

MOTOR Be sure your power supply agrees with nameplate marking. 120 Volts AC means your tool will operate on alternating or direct current. As little as 10% lower voltage can cause loss of power and can result in overheating. All Porter Cable tools are factory-tested; if this tool does not operate, check the power supply. Accessories must be rated for at least the speed recommended on the tool warning label. Accessories running over rated speed can fly apart and cause injury.
OPERATION To reduce the risk of injury, turn unit off and disconnect it from power source before installing and removing accessories, before adjusting or when making repairs. An accidental start-up can cause injury. A Laceration hazard. Never remove the return springs (A) Fig. 1A. If the springs are removed the tool cannot be operated safely because the blade will not retract following a cut. Fig.
FINE ADJUSTMENT The "quick set" depth adjustment is adjusted at the factory to produce joints with nominal clearance (biscuit to groove). A fine adjustment is provided allowing you to reduce or increase the clearance as desired. To adjust: 1. Use an 7/16" wrench to loosen lock-nut A (A) Fig. 3. B 2. Rotate fine adjustment knob (B) Fig. 3, to Fig. 3 desired position (rotate knob clockwise to reduce depth of cut, rotate knob counter-clockwise to increase depth of cut). 3.
Angle Adjustment (see Figs. 6, 7, 8 & 9) 1. 2. 3. Loosen locking knob (A). For angles between 0° and 90° - swing fence downward until desired angle on lower scale (B), aligns with lower index mark (E). Tighten knob (A), to secure in place. For angles between 90° and 135° - swing fence downward until the "gate" between the upper scale (D), and lower scale (B), aligns with locking knob. Swing scale arm down to align knob with upper scale.
BLADES (2" and 4") Model 557 is shipped with a 4" diameter blade installed. This blade is used for all operations except for the "FF" biscuit. To install the 2" blade for the "FF" biscuit: Handle blades carefully. They are extremely sharp. To reduce the risk of injury, turn unit off and disconnect it from power source before installing and removing accessories, before adjusting or when making repairs. An accidental start-up can cause injury. A B Fig. 10 Fig. 11 1.
10. Lift safety lever (A) Fig. 13, fully retract the plunge mechanism, and reposition the safety lever as shown in Fig. 14. Slowly release pressure on plunge mechanism. 11. Reposition blade cover plate to tool, and secure in place with the four retaining screws (removed in step 1). Do not operate tool without blade cover installed. ALIGNMENT PLATE (For Narrow Stock) When joining narrow material, install the alignment plate (A) Fig. 15 (furnished with tool).
Dust/Chip Deflector Nozzle The dust/chip deflector nozzle (C) pushes onto the dust port (A) Fig. 17. ATTACHING DUST BAG Depress spring clips (A) Fig. 18 and clip dust bag (B) on end of dust/chip deflector (C). The bag is equipped with a zipper to ease emptying of the collected material. A Fig. 18 B Fig. 18A C "DUPLEX" HINGES You can use the 557 to make the mortises required for installing "duplex" hinges. Make a spacer and attach it to the 557 fence. The spacer can be made of scrap 3/4" wood.
CORNER JOINT M I T E R Fig. 19A SURFACE JOINT J O I N T Fig. 19B Fig. 19C PRACTICE CUTS After each set-up or adjustment to the tool make several practice cuts in scrap material.
