OPERATION

INSERTING/REMOVING CUTTERS

Unplug the router table and/or the router.

Remove the fence assembly. (See Attaching the Fence Assembly in the Assembly section.)

WARNING:

If you are changing a cutter immediately after use, be careful not to touch the cutter or collet with your hands or fingers. They will get burned because of the heat buildup from cutting. Always use a wrench.

Remove the router/insert plate assembly. (See Installing Router/Insert Plate Assembly in the Assembly sec- tion.)

Consult the router operator’s manual for proper cutter removal/installation procedure and replace cutter.

ADJUSTING DEPTH OF CUT

We recommend that cuts be made at a depth not exceeding 1/8 in. and that several passes be made to reach depths of cut greater than 1/8 in.

ADJUSTING THE MITER GAUGE

See Figure 20.

Unplug the router table and/or the router.

Loosen the miter gauge knob.

Rotate the miter gauge to the desired angle.

Tighten the miter gauge knob.

POSITIONING THE FENCE

See Figure 21.

The fence enables you to support and guide the work- piece.

Unplug the router table and/or the router.

Loosen the fence lock knobs.

Position the fence to the desired location.

Tighten the fence lock knobs.

NOTE: The outfeed fence has joining capabilities and can be adjusted out in increments up to 1/4 in. and enable you to support the workpiece as it exits the cutter.
