RATE OF FEED
The proper rate of feed depends on several factors: the hardness and moisture content of the
workpiece, the depth of cut, and the cutting diameter of the bit.
When cutting shallow grooves in soft woods, such as pine, you may use a faster rate of feed. When
making deep cuts in hardwoods, such as oak, you should use a slower rate of feed.
FEEDING TOO RAPIDLY
Forcing the feed of the cutting bit forward too rapidly slows the revolution of the cutting bit, and the bit
takes larger bites as it rotates. Larger bites mean larger chips and a rough finish. This forcing action
can also cause the router motor to overheat.
FEEDING TOO SLOWLY
When you feed the cutting bit too slowly, the rotating cutting bit does not cut into new wood rapidly
enough to take a bite. Instead, it scrapes away sawdust-like particles. This scraping produces heat,
which can glaze, burn, and mar the cut in the workpiece and, in extreme cases, overheat the cutting
bit.
