rotation direction of the router bit (up-grinding).
When milling in the direction with the rotation of the router bit (down
cutting), the router can break loose, preventing control by the user.
ROUTING PROCESS
Adjust the depth-of-cut as previously described.
Place the router on the work-piece.
Release the clamping lever by turning in clockwise direction and
slowly lower the router until the depth stop runs against the step
buffer. Lock the router in position by turning the clamping lever
in anti-clockwise direction, then switch on. Carry out the cutting
procedure with uniform feed. After finishing the cutting process, slide
the router upwards again and switch off.
ROUTING WITH GUIDE BUSHING
The guide bushing (24) enables template and pattern routing on
work-pieces.
Place the guide bushing over the hole in the center of the base plate,
and align the two through holes in the bottom of the base plate with
the countersunk holes in the guide bushing. Fasten the guide bushing
with the nuts and screws provided.(See D).
ROUTING PROCESS (See E)
Choose a router bit with a smaller diameter than the inner
diameter of the guide bushing.
Set the router with guide bushing against the template. Release the
clamping lever by turning in clockwise direction and slowly lower
the router toward the work-piece until the adjusted depth-of-cut is
reached.

applying light sideward pressure.
Note: The template must have a minimum thickness of 8 mm, due to
the projecting height of the guide bushing.
SHAPING OR MOLDING APPLICATIONS
For shaping or molding applications without the use of a parallel
guide, the router must be equipped with a pilot or a ball bearing.
Lead the router sideward to the workpiece and allow router bit
to engage until the pilot or the ball bearing of the router reach the
corner of the workpiece being machined. Guide the router alongside
the workpiece corner using both hands, ensuring proper seating
of the base plate. Too much pressure can damage the edge of the
workpiece.
ROUTING WITH PARALLEL GUIDE
(Accessory – See F,G)
• Slide the parallel guide (21) with the guide rods (27) into the base
plate (10) and tighten at the required measure with the wing bolts
(12).
• Guide the machine with uniform feed and sideward pressure on the
parallel guide (21) along the edge of the workpiece.
ROUTING CIRCULAR ARC PROFILES(See H, I)
To reassemble the router guide for use as a circle guide(arc guide),
follow below steps:
• Loosen rear wing knobs (28) and fine adjustment knob(A), spacer,
and indicator (B), remove these parts from guide rods (C).
• Loosen front knobs and guide base (E), remove from the guide
rods.
• Remove springs (D) from guide rods.
