Adjusting the Depth-of-cut
f
The adjustment of the depth-of-cut may on-
ly be carried out when the router is
switched off.
For coarse adjustment of the depth-of-cut, pro-
ceed as follows:
– Place the machine with the router bit mount-
ed on the workpiece to be machined.
– Set the scale for fine adjustment
2
to
“0”
.
– Set the step buffer
8
to the lowest position;
the step buffer engages noticeably.
– Loosen the clamping lever for depth-of-cut
coarse adjustment
5
by turning in counter-
clockwise direction so that the depth stop
4
can move freely and faces against the step
buffer
8
.
– Push the release lever
16
downward and
slowly lower the plunge router until the rout-
er bit
22
touches the surface of the work-
piece. Let go of the release lever
16
again to
lock this plunging depth.
– Set the scale for coarse adjustment of the
depth-of-cut
6
to
“0”
.
– Adjust the required depth-of-cut by turning
the adjustment knob for coarse adjustment
7
and reading the scale
6
. Pay attention not to
readjust the rotatable scale
6
.
– Lock the clamping lever for depth-of-cut
coarse adjustment
5
by turning in clockwise
direction and slide the router upward.
For deep cuts, it is recommended to carry out
several cuts, each with little material removal.
By using the step buffer
8
, the cutting process
can be divided into several steps. For this, ad-
just the desired depth-of-cut with the lowest
step of the step buffer and select the higher
steps first for the initial cuts. The clearance of
the steps can be changed by screwing the ad-
justing screws
further in or out.
After a trial cut, the depth-of-cut can be set ex-
actly to the desired measure by turning the ad-
justment knob
1
; turn in clockwise direction to
increase the cutting depth and in anticlockwise
direction to decrease the cutting depth. The
scale
2
can be used for guidance. One full turn
corresponds with a setting range of 2.0 mm; a
graduation mark on the top edge of the scale
