ASSEMBLY & OPERATION

ROUTER BASE

The router accessory converts your spin saw into a small hobby router that is capable of handling small ¼” shank router bits as well as the spiral cutting bit. The tilting base is ideal for bevel cutting.

!WARNING

Unplug the tool from the power source before changing accessories, changing bits and making adjustments.

Before turning the tool ON, check to make sure the bit and all accessory fasteners are securely tightened.

ROUTER ACCESSORY INSTALLATION

1.Remove any accessory already installed on the tool.

2.Remove accessory locking knob (1) from the base of the spin saw motor housing (see Fig. 15). Depress the motor shaft locking button (2) on the back of the motor housing (see inset).

NOTE: Rotate the collet nut while holding down on the motor shaft locking button until the button drops into the hole in the motor shaft.

3.Slide router accessory mounting bracket (3) onto the bottom of motor housing (4) until the mounting hole

(5) lines up with the hole in the mounting bracket.

NOTES:

The raised hole in the mounting bracket will slide over the motor shaft locking button only if the button is fully depressed and engaged in the motor shaft.

The tab on the reverse side of the router base mounting band must be inserted into the matching slot in the motor housing.

4.Re-insert accessory locking knob into the motor housing and securely tighten.

SETTING ROUTER DEPTH

Depth of cutting is controlled by sliding the router base up and down in the adjusting sleeves.

1.Loosen both height adjusting knobs (1) by turning them counter clockwise (see Fig. 16).

2.Slide router base (2) up or down to obtain the desired depth of cut.

3.Re-tighten height adjusting knobs when the desired cut depth is reached.

SETTING ROUTER BASE BEVEL

Bevel cutting with the cutting bit can be done with the router base tilted to the desired angle.

1.Loosen both bevel adjusting knobs (3) by turning them counter clockwise at least 2 turns (see Fig. 17).

2.Tilt router base (2) to the desired angle.

3.Re-tighten both height adjusting knobs.

4.Check bevel angle between router base and spiral cutter to ensure they are at correct angle.

5.Check router depth of cut and re-set the depth if required.

NOTE: Depth of cut will usually have to be increased after tilting the router base for bevel cutting.
