Router Table Operation
ADJUSTING DEPTH AND HEIGHT OF CUT
(Fig. 24)
1. Select a board that is smooth and straight, with good
square edges.
2. Mark lines “A” and “B” on the end of the board, as
shown in Detail 24.
•
Line “A” indicates the desired
height of cut
.
•
Line “B” indicates the desired final
depth of cut
.
•
The area outlined by “A,” “B,” and the edge of the
board is the area that will be cut away.
3. Following the instructions that came with your router,
adjust the router height of cut until the top of the
router bit lines up with line “A.”
4. If the desired depth of cut can be cut in a single
pass, loosen the fence clamping knobs and move
the fence forward or backward until the outermost
cutting edge of the router bit is aligned with line “B.”
It may be necessary to reposition the guard to
provide clear access.
NOTE:
For deeper cuts, do NOT attempt to make
the cut in a single pass. Make multiple shallower
passes, progressively moving the fence backward
until the desired depth of cut is reached.
5. Use the scales on the tabletop as a guide to align
the fence; then SECURELY tighten both fence
clamping knobs.
Always make sure that the fence
and guard cannot come in contact
with the router bit.
Failure to do so will result in
damage to the router table and can cause personal
injury.
6. Once all adjustments have been made,
double-check that:
•
The router is SECURELY tightened in the
router base.
•
The router bit is SECURELY tightened in
the router collet, with at least 3/4
″
shank
engagement.
•
The router base is SECURELY tightened to the
router mounting plate.
7. Remove the board from the table.
NOTE:
When making adjustments, use a piece of
scrap wood to make trial cuts before making the cut
with the actual workpiece.
