OPERATION

DEPTH OF CUT ADJUSTMENTS WHEN

ROUTER IS MOUNTED TO A ROUTER TABLE

See Figure 7.

The depth of cut is readable from both sides of the depth
indicator ring. The bottom ring is convenient when using
your router mounted upside down to a router table. The
indicator point on the base can also be used when using
your router mounted to a router table.

Set the cutter at zero depth of cut, rotate depth indicator ring
to desired depth of cut on the scale, then tighten locking

knob securely.

VARIABLE SPEED

if your router is either one of these two models, it has a

variable speed control selector designed to allow operator

control of speed and torque limits. To increase the speed and

torque of your router, turn the variable speed control selector

to a higher setting. Turryo a lower setting to decrease speed
and torque.
NOTE: If you do not want to use the variable speed control

selector, turn to the highest possible setting and the feature
will not be active.

your router before installing a cutter and making cuts in
wood.

to power supply.

chart. See

Figure 8.

■ Turn the variable speed control selector to the desired

setting.
