Routing without safety shield, and/or fence
Some jobs require that you rotate the safety shield out of
the way and remove the fence.
Using the router without the safety shield and fences
in place can lead to serious personal injury. Use
extreme caution: Operate the router without safety
shields and fences ONLY when absolutely necessary,
and with ballbearing-guided-type router bits.
