4. Loosen the CLAMP KNOB on HEIGHT
STAND and turn the DEPTH ADJUSTING
SCREW to set cutting depth. Depth of cut
will be the amount the bit extends below the
ROUTER BASE. After setting depth,
retighten clamp knob.
Adjustment markings on the back of
adjusting bracket are marked in inches and
millimeters. Each line on the fractional side
represents 1/16 of an inch. Each line on the
metric side represents one millimeter. View
the markings prior to starting your project.
Loosen the clamp knob and turn the
adjusting screw counterclockwise (raising
the adjusting bracket), set to desired depth
and tighten clamp knob. To insure proper
settings, rout and measure cut on scrap
material.
5. Used freehand, the router attachment will
help you carve letters, figures, patterns, or
perform pilot bit operations. Keep your
forearms on the bench for the best control
when freehand routing.
Use Dremel's Wood Sign Layout Kit Model
10 for letter and number patterns. This kit
has three styles of letter patterns. (Old
English, Script, Block)
6. Router handles give better overall control
of the router attachment. The router handles
also serve as a router bit storage
compartment. By turning cap counter-
clockwise and placing rotary tool router bits
in the 1/8" holes (4 per handle), you can
store up to 8 bits. Replace handle by turning
in a clockwise fashion until tight.
7. The router spindle turns in a clockwise
direction when viewed from above. For best
control and quality of cut, feed the router
into the work in the direction that the bit will
tend to pull itself into the wood. (Incorrect
feed direction will result in the bit trying to
climb over the wood.) Feed the router in
direction shown in diagram. For example, if
cutting around the edge of a square piece,
move the router in a counterclockwise
direction. If routing the inside surface, as
shown, move in a clockwise direction. Feed
direction is extremely important when using
a pilot bit freehand on the edge of a
workpiece.
