Why is my TREND KWJ750P Tools laminate chipping?
Chipped laminate can occur if the cutter is blunt, too much material is removed in one pass, or the cutter exits out of the postform edge. Always use sharp cutters and when cutting through the laminate, cut 3-4mm of material. Maintain the correct feed direction to ensure the cutter enters the postform edge.
What to do if my TREND Tools jig is slipping on the material?
If the jig is slipping, check the clamps for wear and ensure they are securely tightened. It may also be caused by making too deep of a cut or using a blunt cutter. Clamp securely, take shallow passes, and use a sharp cutter.
Why are my cut joints not square when using TREND KWJ750P Tools?
Cut joints may not be square if the router has tilted or the operator has leaned heavily on the router, causing the jig to flex. To avoid this, ensure the jig is supported and do not push hard on the router, taking shallow passes. Make sure the weight of the router is on the supported part of the jig and that the router is upright.
What to do if assembled TREND KWJ750P joint is not flush or bowed?
An assembled joint that is not flush or is bowed can be caused by the worktops being of different thicknesses or the worktop not being flat (cupped). Ensure the worktop is the same thickness and flat.
What to do if my TREND KWJ750P joint has irregular gaps when clamped?
Irregular gaps in the joint when clamped together can occur if the guide bush has drifted away from the edge of the template whilst cutting either part of the joint, or if wood chips in particle board have torn slightly. Check with a straight edge which part of the joint is uneven and re-cut (this can only be done on the male cut), ensuring that the guide bush is kept against the template by machining from left to right. Use abrasive paper to remove torn wood chips.
