Push the pointer (7.2) down so that it shows
0 mm on the scale (7.1).
If the base position is incorrect, this can be
adjusted with the screw (7.8) on the indica-
tor.
b) Setting the milling depth
The desired milling depth can be set either
with the quick depth adjustment or with the
fi ne depth adjustment.
Quick depth adjustment:
Pull the stop cylinder (7.5) up until the
pointer shows the desired milling depth.
Clamp the stop cylinder in this position with
the clamping lever (7.7).
Fine depth adjustment:
Clamp the stop cylinder with the clamping
lever (7.7). Set the desired milling depth
by turning the adjusting wheel (7.3) in.
Turn the adjusting wheel to the next mark
on the scale to adjust the milling depth by
0.1 mm. One full turn adjusts the milling
depth by 1 mm. The maximum adjustment
range with the adjusting wheel is 8 mm.
c) Increasing the milling depth
Open the rotary knob (7.4) and press the
tool down until the stop cylinder touches
the sensing stops.
Clamp the machine in this position by tight-
ening the rotary knob (7.4).

in such a manner that it cannot move while
being sawed.
The machine must always be
held with both hands by the designated
handles.
Always switch the router on fi rst
before bringing the tool into contact with the
workpiece!
Always advance the router in
the same direction as the cutting direction of
the cutter (counter-routing)!
