5.4 Fitting the Template Guide and Extraction Duct
The template guide is a very useful accessory which attaches to the bottom of the
router and guides the router when cutting curved patterns. Start by making a template,
but rst ask yourself: Which type of template? Inside template or outside template?
An inside template’s hole contour will be (radius of cutter) less than the nished
hole contour and an outside template’s hole contour will be (radius of cutter) larger
than the nished hole contour. Test cut on a piece of waste material rst!
1. Turn the machine upside down and undo the screws holding the extraction
duct in place.
2. Screw on the template guide using the three screws supplied.
3. Insert a cutter and adjust the depth stop.
4. Note: Bear in mind that the diameter of the cutter is limited when a template
guide is used. Masking tape or similar can be used on the guide or workpiece
to protect delicate surfaces.
