6. OPERATION
ROUTING PROCESS
Adjust the depth-of-cut as previously described. Place the router on the workpiece and switch on.
Push down the plunge lock lever and slowly lower the router until the depth stop runs against the depth stop buffer.
Lock the router in position by release plunge lock lever, carry out the cutting procedure with uniform feed. After finishing the cutting process, slide
the router upwards again and switch off.
Routing with guide bushing
1. The guide bushing enables template and pattern routing on workpieces.
2. Detach the two screws on the base plate and fix guide bushing in the bottom of the base plate with the two screws.
3. Lay the router with the guide bushing against the template.
4. Switch on the router. Push down plunge lock lever and slowly lower the router to the workpiece, until the adjusted depth-of-cut is reached.
Release plunge lock lever.
5. Lead the router with projecting guide bushing along the template, with light sideward pressure.
NOTE: Choose a router bit with a smaller diameter than the inner diameter of the guide
bushing. The diameter of router bit more than 13mm can’t be used by this guide bushing.
NOTE: the template must have a minimum thickness of 6mm, due to the projecting
height of the guide bushing. .
Routing with parallel guide
1. Slide the parallel guide with the guide rods into the base plate and tighten at the required measure with the wing bolts.
2. Guide the machine with uniform feed and sideward pressure on the parallel guide along the edge of the workpiece.
Routing circular arc profiles
1. Remove the parallel guide and insert the guide rods into the base plate, tighten centering pin to guide rods with wing bolt.
2. Puncture centering pin into marked centre of the circular arc and guide router with consistent feed across the workpiece surface.
