GENERAL ROUTING OPERATIONS WITH THE ROUTER TABLE

WARNING: Note that, when installed upside-down in a router table, the direction of cutter bit
rotation will be counterclockwise.
a. Coarsely adjust the cutting depth of router before installing it to the table. Use the 'Z' wrench for
precise depth adjustment above the table after installing the router to the table.
NOTICE: The workpiece must always be held tightly against the fence.
b. Always plug the router into the switched outlet in the router table. Never plug a router-table-
mounted router into another power source.
c. Make sure the router-table switch is off.
d. Adjust the fence assembly to support the workpiece to be cut.
e. Set the ON/OFF toggle switch (B) on the router to the ON position.
f. Reconfirm that all router adjustments are securely locked before supplying power to the router.
g. Plug the power cord for the router table into a power source.
h. Turn on the power to the router table by pulling up on the router table ON/OFF switch.
i. Always control the power to the router with the router-table switch whenever the router is
mounted on the table.
j. Always feed the workpiece from right to left.
WARNING: The direction of feed for the workpiece is always against the sharp edges of the
cutter and into the rotation of the cutter. When installed in a router table, the direction of cutter
rotation is counterclockwise. Failure to follow this rule can result in serious personal injury.
WARNING: When using a router table, large cutter bits should be used for edging only.
