TRIMMING WITH SUBBASE ACCESSORY

See Figures 13 and 16.

A subbase accessory is packed in the box with your trimmer. If desired, the existing subbase can be removed and this accessory attached.

It is convenient when routing 4 in. (101.6 mm), 5 in. (127 mm), or 6 in. (152.4 mm) circular grooves. It can also be used when routing grooves parallel to the edge of the workpiece.

The handles provided allow you to grasp and hold your trimmer with two hands similar to grasping and holding a router.

■Unplug your trimmer.

WARNING:

Failure to unplug your trimmer could result in accidental starting causing serious injury.

■Turn your laminate trimmer upside down, remove the four subbase screws and subbase.

■Attach your subbase accessory using the same four subbase screws.

■Tighten subbase screws securely, but do not overtighten.

■Turn your laminate trimmer upright and thread the handles provided into the threaded holes in the subbase accessory.

■Tighten handles securely.

ROUTING GROOVES IN A CIRCLE

See Figure 14.

■There are three holes marked R2", R2-1/2", and R3" on the subbase accessory. Each number represents a ra- dius and may be used when cutting circular grooves that are 4 in. (101.6 mm), 5 in. (127 mm) or 6 in. (152.4 mm) in diameter.

■Select the radius for the desired circle, place a finishing nail through the hole and securely tack it into your workpiece. This will create a pivot axis for that size radius.
