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.
