Fitting the Router and the Cutters
Setup/Operating Instructions

NOTE. If you find that some of your cutters are
‘borderline’ for ‘reach’ or the length of shank remaining
in the collet is approaching the minimum limit, may
we suggest the purchase of the short collet extension
Axminster No. 211367. (See Page 4)
NOTE. If you are not using a professional router table
with a remote On/Off switching facility, or a Power Tool
NVR Switch (similar to Axminster 910065) remember
to orientate the router so that the power switch is
easily accessible when the router elevator is fitted to
the work platform.
When everything is assembled to your satisfaction.
Check the speed setting of the router is correct for the
cutter diameter. Give the router a ‘quick burst’ to check
that everything is secure. If the ‘quick burst’ check is
O.K. proceed to fit your fencing, dust extraction etc
Ensure you have identified all the parts of your
Router Elevator.
Place the Router Elevator into the prepared recess.
(See Fig A on page 05). Check that it is flush with the
work platform surface. If this is not the case insert the
supplied grub screws in the threaded corner holes and
level the machine table. (See Fig 4) If, for some reason,
it is impossible to level the table absolutely flush with
the work platform, ensure that the ‘front’ of the table
is low in the recess, and the ‘rear’ of the table is high to
the work surface. (Low and High in this instance refer
to the minimal measurements required to ensure that
there is no ‘edge’ for the work piece to ‘snag’ on). When
you are satisfied with the levelling process you can, if
required, fasten the elevator in position with the two
M6 bolts supplied or even two Wood Screws. (perhaps
an MDF working platform/table?).
