2. Position the board against the face of the router table unitized fence with the edge resting on the table top and the end
marked with lines "A" and "B" close to the bit. See Figure 23. (This will retract the guard inside the fence and provide access
to the bit for making adjustments. MAKE SURE THE ROUTER IS UNPLUGGED WHEN MAKING ADJUSTMENTS.
3. Loosen both large fence clamping knobs to allow for fence assembly adjustment, and move fence forward or backward
until outermost cutting edge of router bit is aligned with line "A" Tighten both fence clamping knobs.
4. Raise or lower the router until top cutting edge of U1e bit is aligned with line "B" (Refer to your router owner’s manual for
adjusting your router properly)
AFTER MAKING THIS ADJUSTMENT, BE SURE ROUTER IS SECURELY TIGH1ENED IN THE ROUTER BASE, THE BIT IS SECURELY
TIGHTENED IN THE ROUTER CHUCK AND THE ROUTER BASE IS SECURED TIGHTLY TO THE ROUTER TABLE TOP
5. Remove the board from the fence.
Note:
You should substitute a scrap board for the actual workpiece while making adjustments.
WARNING! WHEN ADJUSTING HEIGHT OF ROUTER BIT FOR ANY DESIRED CUT, MAKE ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN THAT TOP OF
THE BIT IS BELOW THE INSIDE SURFACE OF THE RETRACTABLE GUARD. CHECK TO SEE THAT THE GUARD RETRACTS FREELY IN
AND OUT OF THE FENCE TO ITS NORMAL POSITION OVER THE ROUTER TABLE HOLE. DO NOT OPERATE ROUTER IF ANY PART
OF THE BIT CONTACTS THE GUARD.
USING ROUTER TABLE AS A JOINTER (FULL EDGE CUTTING)
For maximum strength and accuracy, boards to be joined together should be smooth and true. The edges should be true to
the workpiece surface. You can true the edges on your router table using a straight bit.
1. Check to see if the face of the adjustable jointing fence is flush with the face of the router table fence. If not, loosen the
jointing fence clamping knob on Ute Juint1ng fenc8 and push jointing fence in until it is flush with the router table fence.
Tighten the knob on the jointing fence.
Note: The jointing fence provides a continuous support for the workpiece as it is fed beyond the router bit. The adjustable
jointing fence compensates for the gap created from the removal of material by the router bit. See Figures 24 and 25.
2. Adjust the depth of cut (the material you want to remove) and router bit height as described in the section ADJUSTING
DEPTH AND HEIGHT OF THE CUT. Tightly secure the fence assembly and the router as described before. (MAKE SURE ROUTER
IS UNPLUGGED WHEN MAKING ADJUSTMENTS) See Figure 23. FIGURE 24
