ADJUSTING THE DEPTH-STOP TURRET
Use the depth-stop turret to change among different depths without changing the depth stop settings.
The most common use of this feature is making successively deeper cuts to achieve a final depth
of cut that is too deep to accomplish in a single pass.
Each of the steps progresses by 1/4" (6 mm)
increments. The 4 steps represent a total of 3/4" (19 mm) with a full 360º rotation of the turret.
1. Unplug the router.
2. Loosen the locking screw.
3. Set the depth-stop turret to the desired setting. Turn clockwise or counter-clockwise to lower or raise the
depth-stop turret.
4. Tighten the locking screw.
EDGE GUIDE FOR THE ROUTER
(fig 4)
The straight edge guide is an effective aid to cutting a
straight line when chamfering or grooving.
1. Loosen the lock bolts.
2. Feed the bars on the edge guide through the holes in
the base plate.
3. Adjust the distance between the router bit and the
edge guide by moving the guide until it is situated at
the proper distance.
4. Tighten the lock bolts to hold the straight edge guide
in position.
