angle to the workpiece unchanged, and is especially helpful when routing edges.
Attachment of PR006 Underscribe
Attachment
The PR006 Underscribe Attachment can also be used with the palm router and the side- handle subbase.
Note: When the underscribe attachment is used with the side-handle subbase, the longer set of attachment screws should be used.
Please refer to PR006 Underscribe Attachment section for further instructions.
Dust Extraction & Collection Capability
If you have a shop vacuum system, you can connect it to the PR007’s dust extraction attachment to remove routing dust and debris for enhanced utility, visibility and accuracy.
The dust collection capability of the PR007 can be used in both common types of router applications:
1. Routing on flat surfaces
2. Edge-forming
To reduce the risk of injury, ! WARNING do not reach in area of the
bit while the router is ON or plugged in. To avoid entangling hoses, do not use this dust extraction hood at the same time as any other dust extraction hood.
Dust Extraction when Routing on
Flat Surfaces
Attach the dust port on the back end of the subbase.
1. Position the port on the backside of subbase
2. Affix using two thumbscrews included.
Dust Extraction when Edge-forming
Attach the dust hood and port on the back end of the subbase.
1. Position the hood on the backside of subbase
2. Position the port on the backside of the dust hood.
3. Affix using two thumbscrews included.
Vacuum Hose Compatibility
The dust port is sized to accept 35mm vacuum hoses. The PR007 includes the VAC002 adapter that will allow the port to be connected to 1-1/4” and 1-1/2” vacuum hoses. An adapter to connect the hood to 2-1/2" hoses is also available separately.

3.The overlapping piece of laminate should overlap the guiding piece by about 1/2". (The overlapping sheet of laminate will then pass over the aluminum plate and be cut at the proper point by the router bit.)
4.Keep steady pressure on the tool so that the guiding edge of the base remains in contact with the fixed piece of laminate throughout the operation. This is especially important at the beginning and end of a cut.
5.It is also necessary to keep the laminate pressed down tightly near the seam to keep these chips from getting under the laminate. This is especially important on larger pieces of material. The optional PR007 Side Handle Subbase includes a dust extraction hood port that connects to a vacuum hose and helps to keep chips from getting under the laminate.
PR007 SIDE-HANDLE SUBBASE (Available as optional accessory)
See PR007 instruction sheet for complete information about this accessory.
The PR007 Side-Handle Subbase and Dust Extraction Kit (Fig. 36) is a versatile accessory that provides several useful features:

PR007 Attachment to PR001 Fixed base
1.Remove regular subbase
2.Attach side handle subbase with the panhead screws that are included with it.
Additional Means of Supporting
the Router
The knob handle on the PR007 subbase provides an additional gripping point for the palm router / side-handle subbase assembly. It is designed for use when the palm routers are being used in applications that are wide enough that the knob sits over the workpiece. Holding the knob and keeping it pressed down over the workpiece helps keep the routers’
