If using shorter lengths of timber, then the length stop can be used. This is adjustable on the nylon sled fence by undoing the
wing nut, slide the length stop into position and re tighten in place.
If the workpiece is too short to be held by both clamp heads, use an offcut that is the same thickness as the workpiece. Place
this under the front clamp and use a piece of plywood to bridge over the top to of both pieces. Clamp down in place using both
clamps allowing equal pressure across the sled. The length stop can also be used within this set up.
The hold down clamps do not need over tightening. The work is held in place with the top plate, so a gentle twist is all that is
required on the lock knobs.
Ensure that the timber is well prepared, cut square and flat. On wider boards warping can be a real problem; to try to reduce this
from happening, G clamp these boards together as soon as they have been machined.

Use an off cut to check the correct setting up of the cutter and

connect the power, load sled onto the T slot on the right hand
side of the table, connect power supply and ensure PPE is used.
start the router and extractor. Push the sled gently along the T
Slot line, working from the right to left across the router table.
Work at an even pace, giving the cutter time to remove the
timber. Stop the router and check the results. If another cut is
needed, lift off the sled from the left hand side of the table and
reload on the right hand side. Do not drag back through the
cutter as this can damage the cutter.

of the router table fence and sled, the workpieces can now be
cut.
