16.Position the infeed and outfeed fences as close as possible to the maximum diameter of the router bit, but not farther than 1⁄8" (see
Figure 25).

Figure 25. Positioning fences around router bit.
For maximum safety and support, consider using a minimum clearance design for your fences. Minimum clearance fences are cut around the shape of the router bit to minimize clearance between the router bit and the fence, as shown in Figure 26.

18.Assemble the router guard with the compo- nents shown in Figure 28.
Overtightening the fasteners that secure the plastic guard to the bracket may crack or break the plastic guard, rendering it unsafe for use.

17.Clamp, predrill with a countersinking bit, and attach the fence pieces with at least two wood screws per side, as shown in Figure 27. (Only use wood screws that are long enough to thread into the support board, but not so long that they enter the plastic fence face.)
Note: If you followed Step 13, be sure to install the modified board on the infeed side.
