Using the Batten as a Guide
When it is not possible to use the guide fence (18) for example when routing grooves
in the back panel of a bookcase to support shelves, proceed as follows.
•
Place a batten onto the workpiece.
•
Move the batten until it is in the correct position to guide the tool.
•
Securely clamp the batten to the work piece.
Using the Template Guide
The template guide (23) can be used to make a cut-out shape from a template, for
instance a letter. You will need to purchase or make a template.
•
Secure the template guide (23) over the work piece with double sided tape or
secure with “G” clamps.
•
The router bit must extend below the flange of the template guide to cut the work
piece on the shape of the template.
•
Refer to Woodworking Forums/Magazines for assistance in creating your
templates and guides.
Switching On and Off
CAUTION:
Before plugging in the tool always check that the trigger switch engages
and disengages properly.
To turn the Router on.
1. Push the ON/OFF slide switch (7) down to start the tool.
2. To turn off the router push the rear of the switch and
it will return to the off position.
Note:
The switch will automatically lock on allowing you
to remove your fingers while operating the router.
WARNING! Let the tool work at its own pace.
Do not overload.
3. Carefully guide the power cord in order to avoid accidentally cutting it.
Adjusting the Depth of Cut
The depth of cut is the distance X between the depth
rod (3) and the 3 tier turret depth stops (1) (Fig. 17). The
depth of cut can be set in two different ways as
described below.
1. Fit the router bit as previously described.
2. Loosen the depth rod (3) adjustment knob.
3. Pull the plunge lock lever (11) down. Plunge the router
down until the router bit touches the work piece.
4. Release the plunge lock lever (11), locking the router down.
5. Pull the depth rod (3) up.
6. Place a piece of wood with a thickness equal to the desired depth of cut between
the 3 tier turret depth rod (1).
