Setting out the Joints
When cutting a joint ensure location bushes
contact the postformed edge of the worktop. For
certain joints the worktop will need to be inverted
so that all cuts are made into the postformed
edge, never out through it. When routing worktop
the balancing paper on the underside may feather
edge – this feather edge should be removed with
abrasive paper.
Location bushes are held in position by ‘O’ rings.
Insert the smallest end of the bush into the hole
by lightly pushing and turning at the same time.
If the bushes are tight use a lubricant on the ‘O’
ring. Ensure bushes are fully home before use.
When using jig ensure location bushes do not
foul workbench.
In order to prevent breakout of the
laminate, rotation of the cutter and
feed direction must always be into the
postform edge of the worktop.
Margin Distance
Allow 8.5mm when cutting joints. Measure or
use a batten of this
thickness to aid
setting out.
