3. Place the Router into the cradle of the Plunge Base
4. Tighten the Plunge Base Locking Knob (Fig. II) to secure the
Router in the Plunge Base
Dust extraction
IMPORTANT: Dust from certain materials can be toxic. Before using
the Router (1), attach a dust extraction system or vacuum cleaner to
the Dust Extraction Spout (19) (Fig. III), which is fitted to the Plunge
Base (9), and ALWAYS wear respiratory protection. If no workshop
dust extraction system is available when using the Plunge Base,
clean and vacuum frequently to prevent the build-up of dust and
chippings.
Note: The Dust Extraction Spout can be removed, if required, by
unscrewing the two Dust Extraction Spout Connection Screws (34).
This will allow better access to cleaning hard-to-get-at places on the
Plunge Base when cleaning.
Adjusting the depth of cut
There are two ways to adjust the depth of cut:
• Free Plunge, for conventional and fast depth adjustment
• Micro Adjuster, for precise depth setting throughout the full
plunge range
Free plunge
1. With a chosen Router Bit (48) fitted and the Router (1) attached
to the Plunge Base (9), disengage the Plunge Lock Lever (24)
(Fig. IV)
2. Using the Handles (22), plunge the router down to the required
plunge depth
3. Engage the Plunge Lock Lever to lock the router at the required
depth
Micro adjuster
1. With a chosen Router Bit (48) fitted and the Router (1) attached
to the Plunge Base (9), disengage the Plunge Lock Lever (24)
(Fig. IV)
2. Turn the Micro Winder (20) until the router bit is at the depth
required
Note: Turn clockwise to increase cut depth and anti-clockwise to
reduce cut depth. A full revolution of the Micro Winder is a depth
adjustment of 1.5mm (
⁄
"). The Micro Adjustment Guide (21) can

be used to set a point of reference when gauging a full revolution.
3. Engage the Plunge Lock Lever when the router is at the required
depth, particularly for heavy cuts
Depth stop & turret
• The Depth Stop Lock (29) and Depth Turret (31) enable accurate
pre-setting of three different cut depths, each stepped at 5mm
(
⁄
") (Fig. IV)

Zeroing the router:
1. With a chosen Router Bit (48) fitted and the Router (1) attached
to the Plunge Base (9), place the Router on a flat surface then
disengage the Plunge Lock Lever (24) (Fig. IV)
2. Rotate the Depth Turret (31) until the 0 step is beneath the
Depth Stop (30)
3. Disengage the Depth Stop Lock (29) to release the Depth Stop
4. Plunge the Router down until the tip of the Router Bit touches
the flat surface

5. Engage the Depth Stop Lock so the Depth Stop is locked in its
current position
Adjusting the depth turret:
• The Depth Turret (31) allows 3 different plunge depths to be
configured for fast switching during use: 5mm, 10mm and
15mm (

• This can speed up operations or allow a 3-cut approach to
reaching the final required depth of cut
• Using the Depth Turret is particularly important when the
workpiece is more difficult to cut, i.e. harder wood or when a
better finish is required
• If the Depth Turret becomes loose, tighten the screw in the
centre
1. After zeroing the router (see "Zeroing the router"), the secured
Depth Stop (30) now provides an accurate datum and the depth
of cut can be set by reference to the graduations etched into the
face of each depth on the Depth Turret (31) (Fig. IV)
2. Rotate the Depth Turret to the required depth
Custom depth using the depth stop
• The scale on the face of the Depth Stop (30) can be used to
make adjustments to the Depth Stop after the router has been
zeroed (see "Zeroing the router")
1. After zeroing the router on one of the turret stops, plunge the
router to the zero depth and ensure the Plunge Lock Lever (24)
is engaged
2. Loosen the Depth Stop Lock and raise the Depth Stop to
required depth then retighten the Depth Stop Lock to set the
new plunge depth
Notes:
• The exact depth required for a particular task, such as a hinge
leaf, can be achieved by placing the object/material of required
plunge depth between the Depth Stop and the Depth Turret
before locking the Depth Stop Lock. The plunge will now be the
precise depth required for the object/material
• The gap between the end of the Depth Stop and the Turret Stop
(31) will be the plunge depth
• The scale on the Depth Stop can be used to check changes in
depth setting, but the actual cutting depth is best measured by
making a trial cut on scrap material. The scale should be used as
an approximate guide
Fitting a guide bush for use with templates & jigs
See Fig. V
• An optional template guide bush kit is available for purchase
from your Triton stockist
1. To install a Guide Bush (not supplied) (49), loosen the Guide
Bush Locking Screws (33) and ensure the rotating tabs are
rotated away from the guide bush
2. Line the notches on the Guide Bush with the Guide Bush
Locking Screws so that the guide bush sits centre and flush
against the Plunge Base Plate (27)
3. Rotate the tabs on the Guide Bush Locking Screws over the
notches on the Guide Bush then tighten the screws to secure
the Guide Bush
4. To remove the Guide Bush, loosen the screws, rotate the tabs
then remove the Guide Bush before retightening the Guide
Bush Locking Screws
