USING THE FENCE
Extended Base
The fence base (o) provides greater stability when using
bearing guided cutters along an edge. The fence (r) is not
used for these cuts.
Place one hand on the long end of the base, holding it
down onto your work, and grip the router handle, furthest
away, with your other hand. Fig. 23. Note: position the
router with the power switch closest to your right hand.
Fence
Fit the Fence (r) to the short end of the base (o) for use
when performing edge work with a non-bearing cutter. Use
the hand positions shown in Fig. 23.
When routing trenches some distance in from an edge, fit
the fence to the long end of the base. Fig. 24.
If using a very large diameter cutter it may be necessary to
fix wooden blocks to the fence faces via the screw holes, to
ensure the cutter does not contact the fence.
Circle Cutter
1. Fit the base (o) (without the fence) to the router.
2. Remove the Pivot Mount (s) from the base and fix it
to the centre of your work using a small nail or screw
through one of the small holes provided. Fig. 25. Leave
the bolt fitted through the pivot mount.
3. Position the router and base over the pivot mount and
refit the washer and wing-nut.
With the power switched "Off", rotate the router along the
intended path to check the circle, and make any necessary
adjustments.
4. Cut the circle in several passes, lowering the cut depth
by say 2mm (1/16") each pass. Do not attempt to cut
deeply in one pass.
Through cuts: If cutting all the way through the material, fix
a sacrifical board to the underneath of your workpiece. Fig.
26. Cut the circle oversize, then when the cut is all the way
through, reduce the diameter and work back to the desired
size, using light, full depth passes.
