Your safety is important! Please follow the warnings below during this entire section:

To avoid serious personal injury, read and become familiar with the entire instruction manual before using the Model G0528.

Damage to your eyes, lungs, and ears could result from failure to wear safety glasses, a respirator, and hearing protec- tion while using this machine.

Loose hair and cloth- ing could get caught in machinery and cause serious personal inju- ry. Keep loose clothing rolled up and long hair tied up and away from machinery.

Routing operations on your Model G0528 are grouped into three main techniques:

•Jointing an edge (page 18)

•Groove cutting (page 19)

•Profile cutting (page 19)

Jointing an edge:

Jointing the edge of a board involves using a straight cutting router bit to remove wood from the edge face of a board. The result is a perfectly flat and square edge.

1.Secure a straight cutting router bit into your router according to the router manufacturer’s instructions.

2.Snap the smallest table insert into the recessed hole that still allows the router bit to freely rotate.

3.Adjust the outfeed fence even with the left edge of the router bit (Figure 16).
