Operation
Setting the Milling Depth
1. Place the router onto the work-piece.
2. Set the stepped depth control stop (9) to the
lowest step by rotating it.
3. Loosen the retaining lever (14) and slowly push
the machine downwards until the milling cutter
touches the work-piece.
4. Establish and note the value on the depth scale
on the depth check (15) against the index mark
on the machine casing.
5. Move the router to the edge of the work-piece
so that the milling cutter is just overhanging the
work piece and can be pushed further down.
6. Again slowly push downwards until the scale is equal to desired milling
depth minus the previously noted value.
7. Secure the stepped depth check (15) with the wing screw (11).
8. Release the machine and it will rise to its normal rest position.
Milling
1. Place the machine on work-piece and switch on.
2. Slowly push the machine down until the depth control stop makes contact.
3. Mill out groove with continuous even feed.
4. When the milling process is complete, raise the
machine and switch off.
Milling with the stepped Control Stop
1. When deeper milling depth is required, it is
recommended to carry out the milling process
in two or three steps.
2. By using the stepped depth control stop (9), the
milling process can be divided into two or three
even steps.
3. Preset the individual milling steps on the
adjusting screws by following the previous
“Setting the Milling Depth” procedure, but this
