pin and the appropriate guard and follow the
router table's instruction manual. ALWAYS
feed the workpiece from right to left across the
front of the bit. On Bosch router tables, the
correct feed direction is also shown on fence

have been properly installed. (Fig. 21)
Whenever possible, when using the fence, use
a push stick to push the workpiece, especially
when working with narrow pieces.
