HOW TO USE THE ROUTER

1. Adjusting depth of cut

(1) Use stopper pole to adjust depth of cut.
1 Place the tool on a flat wood surface.
2 Turn the stopper block so that section to

which the cutting depth setting screw on a
stopper block is not attached comes to the
bottom of the stopper pole. Loosen pole lock
knob allowing the stopper pole to contact
with stopper block.

3 Loosen the lock lever and press the tool

body until the bit just touches the flat
surface. Tighten the lock lever at this point.
(Fig. 4)

4 Tighten pole lock knob. Align the depth

indicator with the “0” graduation of scale.

5 Loosen pole lock knob, and raise until

indicator aligns with the graduation
representing the desired cutting depth.
Tighten pole lock knob.

6 Loosen the lock lever and press the tool

body down until the stopper block to obtain
the desired cutting depth.

(2) As shown in Fig. 5 (a), loosening the two

nuts on the threaded column and moving
them down will allow you to move down to
the end position of the bit when the lock
lever was loosened. This is helpful when
moving the router to align the bit with the
cutting position. As shown in Fig. 5 (b),
tighten the upper and lower nuts to secure
the cutting depth.

(3) When you are not using the scale to set the

cutting depth, push up the stopper pole so
that it is not in the way.

2. Stopper block (Fig. 6)

The 2 cut-depth setting screws attached to
the stopper block can be adjusted to
simultaneously set 3 different cutting depth.
Use a wrench to tighten the nuts so that the
cut-depth setting screws do not come loose
at this time.
