6.  For each routing operation, adjust the 

  various parts of the Router Table Fence 

  as needed and the lock them in position 

  by tightening all knobs before proceeding.

Adjusting the Fence Face

The two MDF Adjustable Fence Faces (2) are 

designed to slide about 2" along the fence. 

As a result, the opening for the router bit can 

be adjusted from 0" up to 4".

Generally, you want to set the Adjustable 

Fence Faces (2) as close to the bit as 

possible (without contacting the cutter) to 

provide support for your workpiece during 

the cut. Setting both infeed and outfeed 

Adjustable Fence Faces close to the bit 

helps prevent the ends of the workpiece from 

drifting too far into the cutter at the beginning 

and end of the cut, providing enhanced 

safety and cut quality.

In some cases, you might want 

“zero-clearance” support to deliver an 

even cleaner cut. This involves cutting the 

router bit profile into the front edge of the 

infeed Adjustable Fence Face so that there’s 

virtually no gap between the cutter and the 

Fence Face. It delivers a cleaner cut because 

the workpiece fibers are fully supported 

throughout the cut.

If a zero clearance setting is necessary, 

follow these steps:

1.  Set the bit height and fence position. 

  Set the both MDF Adjustable Fence 

  Faces (2) close to the bit, but not 

  touching it. The Fence Faces MUST 

 NOT contact the bit at this time.

2.  Install and secure the Bit Safety 

  Guard (3).

3.  From the back of the fence, slightly 

  loosen the 1" Round Knobs on the 

  infeed MDF Adjustable Fence Face (2). 

  Start the router and slowly slide the 

  infeed MDF Adjustable Fence Face into 

  the spinning router bit, stopping when 

  the edge reaches the bit’s guide bearing 

  or midpoint (for bits that don’t have a 

  guide bearing).

4.  Turn off the router. Fully tighten the 1" 

  Round Knobs on the back of the MDF 

  Adjustable Fence Face (2) to secure 

  it in position.

 

Turn off and unplug 

your router before installing or adjusting 

the bit or adjusting the Router 

Table Fence.

Never use a router bit that is 

damaged or dull.

Never exceed the manufacturer’s 

recommended maximum operating 

speed for your router bit.

 

When adjusting the 

position of the Router Table Fence, 

always ensure that no part of the 

Aluminum Fence (1) will contact the 

router bit.

>  To avoid serious 

  injury, keep hands 

  and fingers away 

  from the spinning 

  router bit. Maintain 

  awareness of the 

  bit at all times.
