Straight guide
The straight guide is effectively used for straight cuts
when chamfering or grooving.
1.
Install the straight guide on the guide holder using
the clamping screw (B). Insert the guide holder into the
holes in the tool base and tighten the clamping screw
(A). To adjust the distance between the router bit and
the straight guide, loosen the clamping screw (B) and
turn the fine adjusting screw (1.5 mm per turn). At the
desired distance, tighten the clamping screw (B) to
secure the straight guide in place.

When cutting, move the tool with the straight guide
flush with the side of the workpiece.
Wider straight guide of desired dimensions may be
made by using the convenient holes in the guide to bolt
on extra pieces of wood.
When using a large diameter router bit, attach pieces
of wood to the straight guide which have a thickness of
more than 15 mm (5/8″) to prevent the router bit from
striking the straight guide.

If the distance between the side of the workpiece and
the cutting position is too wide for the straight guide, or
if the side of the workpiece is not straight, the straight
guide cannot be used. In this case, firmly clamp a
straight board to the workpiece and use it as a guide
against the base. Feed the tool in the direction of the
arrow.
