PR009 AND PR010 ROUND SUBBASES &

USE OF TEMPLET GUIDE BUSHINGS WITH

PR001 FIXED BASE

(Available as optional accessories)

Optional large round subbases are available separately and allow various templet guide bushings to be used with the palm routers.

Templet guide bushings are used to guide the router to repeatedly make consistent openings and inlays using various templets (also referred to as patterns and jigs). Templets for standard routing applications are available commercially, such as the Bosch hinge templet kit; and templets for specialty applications are typically made by users for their specific needs.

The PR009 Round Subbase accepts the Bosch RA-Series Templet Guide Adapters.

The PR010 Round Subbase accepts threaded templet guide adapters.*

*Note: The RA1100 Adapter for Threaded Templets allows use of conventional threaded templet guides with the PR009 Round Subbase.

PR009 Attachment of Templet Guide and

Round Subbase (Fig. 19)

1.	Remove regular subbase.
2.	Insert templet guide into top of round subbase
	such that the anti-rotation stops in the subbase
	fit into the corresponding places in the templet
	guide. (When using the RA1100 adapter, first
	place the rubber O-ring between the anti-
	rotation stops and the subbase.) (Fig. 20).
3.	Loosely attach round subbase using panhead

Creating Templets

Templet patterns can be made of plywood, hardboard, metal or even plastic. The design can be cut with a router, jigsaw, or other suitable cutting tool. Remember that the pattern will have to be made to compensate for the distance between the router bit and the templet guide (the “offset”), as the final workpiece will differ in size from the templet pattern by that amount, due to the bit position (Fig. 22).

*See page 26 for available templet guide sizes.

**See page 25 for details about centering.
