INSERTING/REMOVING CUTTERS
Unplug the router table and/or the router.
Remove the router/insert plate assembly. (See Installing
Router/Insert Plate Assembly in the Assembly section.)
WARNING:
If you are changing a cutter immediately after use, be
careful not to touch the cutter or collet with your hands or
fingers. They will get burned because of the heat buildup
from cutting. Always use a wrench.
Consult the router operator's manual for proper cutter
removal/installation procedure and replace cutter.
ADJUSTING DEPTH OF CUT
Consult the router operator's manual for adjusting the depth
of cut.
ADJUSTING THE MITER GAUGE
See Figure 24.
Unplug the router table and/or the router.
Loosen the miter gauge knob.
Rotate the miter gauge to the desired angle.
Tighten the miter gauge knob.
POSITIONING THE FENCE
See Figure 25.
The fence enables you to support and guide the workpiece.
Unplug the router table and/or the router.
Loosen the fence lock knobs.
Position the fence to the desired location.
Tighten the fence lock knobs.
NOTE: The outfeed fence has joining capabilities and can
be adjusted out in increments up to 1/4 in. and enable
you to support the workpiece as it exits the cutter.
WARNING:
When making a side or edge cut, never position the fence
such that the workpiece is located between the cutter
and the fence. Failure to heed this warning can result in
serious personal injury.
A groove can be cut in the workpiece by adjusting the
fence back from the cutter. When cutting a groove,
feed the workpiece from right to left. When widening an
existing groove, make certain that the side being cut is
against the leading edge of the cutter. This would be the
side farthest from the fence when the workpiece is fed
from right to left. As shown in figures 21 - 23.
