Operating Instructions
5. USAGE OF THE STEP BUFFER
a) Dividing the cutting procedure in several steps
For deep cuts, it is recommended to carry out several cuts, each with less material
removal. By using the step buffer, the cutting process can be divided into several steps.
Set the required depth-of-cut with the lowest step of the step buffer. Afterwards, the
higher steps can be used for the last two cuts.
b) Pre-adjustment of varying depth-of-cuts
If several different depth-of-cuts are required for the machining of a work-piece, these
can also be preset by using the step buffer.
6. DIRECTION OF FEED (SEE FIG E, F)
The feed motion of the router must always be carried out against the rotation direction
of the router bit (up-grinding).
When milling in the direction with the rotation of the router bit (down cutting), the router
can break loose, preventing control by the user.
7. ROUTING PROCESS
Adjust the depth-of-cut as previously described.
Place the router on the work-piece.
Release the clamping lever by turning in clockwise direction and slowly lower the
router until the depth stop runs against the step buffer. Lock the router in position by
turning the clamping lever in anti-clockwise direction, then switch on. Carry out the
cutting procedure with uniform feed. After finishing the cutting process, slide the router
upwards again and switch off.
