Direction of feed
The router rotates in a clockwise direction. AS a consequence, the router must
be moved from left to right as you face the work piece and anticlockwise for
outside edges.
Rate of feed
It is important to move the router at the correct speed throughout the work.
The incorrect speed may produce a poor quality cut. Moving too fast can cause
bit damage and a rough uneven cut. Too slow can cause the wood to burn and
the bit to overheat. The rate of feed will vary depending on the size of bit, ma-
terial and router speed set. To determine the best speed always practice on a
small unseen area or a spare piece of the same material first.
Variable speed control switch
The variable speed control switch allows you to vary the speed of the router,
enabling the optimum speed to be selected for various sizes of router bits and
preventing the work piece from being burnt. This can occur especially when
cross cutting. The speed increases as you turn the dial towards the higher
numbers and decreases for the lower numbers (1 being slowest and 6 fastest).
Using the router freehand
The router can be used without any of the guides, allowing creative freehand
work, such as sign writing. Use this feature only with a shallow depth of cut.
Note: As the router rotates in a clockwise direction always move the tool in
a left to right direction as you stand facing your work piece. When cutting an
outside edge move the router anti-clockwise; and clockwise to cut an inside
edge.
Fitting the centring pin and making circular cuts
° The centring pin allows you to make circular cuts.
° Push the centring pin onto one of the parallel guide rods and fasten it in
place with the thumb screw.
° Place the centring pin against the material.
° Set the required radius by adjusting the shaft of the parallel guide and tight -
en the parallel guide locking screws.
° Fix router in required depth with the lock lever.
° Switch on the machine.
° After releasing the plunge lock lever, lower the machine slowly.
° Cut grooves, shoulders, etc at a steady rate of feed, holding the machine with
both hands.
° When finished, raise the machine and switch off.
