For special applications, the routing depth can be
variably adjusted from 0 – 19.0 mm:
Set the thumbwheel to the "max." position. Push
the machine forward until the routing blade has
reached the desired routing depth. Set the depth
stop adjustment 18 to this measure by loosening
the lock nut 20 and turning the adjustment screw
