ACCESSORIES
TRIMMING WITH SUBBASE ACCESSORY
See Figures 12 and 15.
A subbase accessory is packed in the box with your trimmer.
If desired, the existing subbase can be removed and this
accessory attached.
It is convenient when routing 4 in. (101.6 mm), 5 in. (127 mm),
or 6 in. (152.4 mm) circular grooves. It can also be used
when routing grooves parallel to the edge of the workpiece.
The handles provided allow you to grasp and hold your
trimmer with two hands similar to grasping and holding a
router.
TO ATTACH SUBBASE ACCESSORY
See Figure 12.
■ Unplug your trimmer.
WARNING:
Failure to unplug your trimmer could result in accidental
starting causing serious injury.
■ Turn your laminate trimmer upside down, remove the
four subbase screws and subbase.
■ Attach your subbase accessory using the same four
subbase screws.
■ Tighten subbase screws securely, but do not overtighten.
■ Turn your laminate trimmer upright and thread the
handles provided into the threaded holes in the subbase
accessory.
■ Tighten handles securely.
ROUTING GROOVES IN A CIRCLE
See Figure 13.
■ There are three holes marked R2", R2-1/2", and R3" on
the subbase accessory. Each number represents a ra-
dius and may be used when cutting circular grooves that
are 4 in. (101.6 mm), 5 in. (127 mm) or 6 in. (152.4 mm)
in diameter.
■ Select the radius for the desired circle, place a finishing
nail through the hole and securely tack it into your
workpiece. This will create a pivot axis for that size
radius.
■ Rout circular groove in a clockwise direction only. See
arrow shown in figure 13.
