23.5 Correct working with the routing and drilling device
To work safely with the routing and drilling device and to achieve a good work result, the following
details must be observed during the various operations.
Before carrying out the various machining operations, ensure that-
• a safe fastening of the routing and drilling device
• a safe fastening of the adapter plate with the sole of the router
• a safe clamping of the router bit in the router
• a safe clamping of the router and the adapter plate on the base plate of the
mounting frame
• a safe fastening of the workpiece on the worktable/hole matrix board
• the connection of the extraction port on the base plate with the aspiration.
23.5.1 Flattening
Figure 93: Flattening
The workpiece (e.g., wood board) is clamped to
the worktable/hole matrix board in such a way
that the routing and drilling device can traverse
the entire surface of the workpiece in the Y-
and X- axes.
The appropriate router bit for flattening is
clamped in the router and the desired cutting
depth is set.
The mounting frame with the router is posi-
tioned so that the first machining step takes
place from the rear edge of the board to the
front.

Further machining steps follow until the entire workpiece surface has been machined.
The width of the respective machining step is approximately half the bit diameter.
During machining, the X-axis is clamped.
