1. Make all your adjustments as described in
the previous sections.
2. Insert and secure your router bit.
3. Adjust the height as required for the
application.
4. Place the base plate (13) on the work piece
ensuring that the bit is not in contact with the
material to be cut.
5. Connect the router to the power supply.
6. Turn the router on. Ensure you have a firm
grip on both handles. Wait for the bit to attain
full speed.
7. Lower the router body and lock it in position
at the desired depth of cut.
8. Move the tool over the work piece surface,
keeping the base plate flush and advancing
smoothly until cutting is complete.
9. When edge cutting, the work piece surface
should be on the left side of the bit in the feed
direction.
10. Keep the cutting pressure constant, taking
care not to crowd the router causing the motor
to slow excessively.
11. On very hard woods or problem materials it
may be necessary to make more than one pass
at progressive cutting depths until the desired
depth of cut is achieved.
12. To tum the router off release the trigger
switch or press and release the trigger switch if
in the “lock-on” position.
CAUTION. Always use two hands to hold the
router.
CAUTION. Where possible, clamp the work
piece to the bench.
CAUTION. Moving the machine too fast may
cause a poor quality of cut and can damage the
bit or the motor. Moving the machine too slowly
may burn or mar the cut.
The proper feed rote will depend on the bit size,
the type of material being cut and the depth
of the cut. Practice first on a scrap piece of
material to gauge the correct feed rote and the
cut dimensions.
WARNING. When using this router to cut
flat panels such as kitchen work surfaces,
before joining please ensure that you use an
appropriate jig together with the correct guide
bush. DO NOT use the curved part of the router
base against a simple guide piece.
Using the parallel guide
The parallel guide (17) is an effective aid to
cutting in a straight line when chamfering or
grooving.
1. Loosen the parallel guide locking knabs (15)
2. Feed the bars on the parallel guide through
the holes in the router base (13) on the right
hand side of the router in the feed direction.
This will assist in keeping the guide flush with
the side of the work piece.
3. Adjust the distance between the router bit
and parallel guide by moving the guide until it is
at the correct distance.
4. Tighten the parallel guide Iocking knobs (15)
to hold the parallel guide in position.
NOTE If the distance between the side of the
work piece and the cutting position is too wide,
or the side of the work piece is not straight,
firmly damp a straight board to the work piece
and use this as a guide against the router base.
Using the dust extraction adaptor
1. The dust extraction adaptar will accept most
standard vacuum cleaner nozzles allowing the
dust to be efficiently removed as the tool is
used.
