Offset Fence and Jointer Routing
The offset fence function is used when the router bit
removes the original reference edge that was guiding the
workpiece at the infeed to the router bit. The most common
application is using the router table as a jointer. However,
the same principle applies to some moulding and shaping
operations.
1. Install the router bit and set the desired height.
2.
With the fence offset set to zero, adjust the position of
the fence to be flush with the front of the router bit.
3. Tighten the thumbscrews holding the fence to the table.
4. Loosen the offset clamping thumbscrew.
5.
Turn the offset adjustment dial for the desired offset.
Each index mark represents 0.1 mm, and a full turn is 1
mm.
6.
Retighten the clamping thumbscrew.
