5.Position the spindle base on the highest setting allowable. It is safer to adjust the spindle base down to the correct depth of cut. If the spindle base is too low, you run the risk of the router bit hitting the table when activating the foot pedal.
Adjust the spindle base to the highest set- ting before operating the router. If the spin- dle base is set too low, you run the risk of the router bit hitting the table during opera- tion. Serious personal injury could occur.
