Routing Without Security
Guard and/or Fence
Using the router without the
security guards and fence in
place can lead to serious personal injury. Use
extreme caution: operate the router without
security guards and fence ONLY when
absolutely necessary, and with piloted type
router bits.
Feed workpiece against the
router bit’s direction of rotation.
Unplug router prior to changing the bit, modify-
ing settings, or making any other adjustments.
For many jobs you must remove the fence
from the router table.
Use only piloted router bits.
