5.2 Web Adjustment

To move the pocket (routed portion) closer to, or further from,

the edge of the material, use a 7/16” wrench and loosen the

Nylock nut next to the operating handle (Fig 29). Moving the

nut away from you will make the pocket cut closer to the edge

of the material, pulling the nut toward you will make the pocket

farther from the edge of the material. Tighten the nut each time

before testing. This is a trial and error method until you get the

Fig 29

pocket where it suits you best.

5.3 Adjusting for Thinner Material

Your TSM-12 is set up for use in ¾” material. It can be adjusted to work in 5/8” or ½” material.

To do so, make a shim the size of the work top from 1/8” or ¼” plywood material. Lay it on the

work table then place your stock on the shim material. Adjust the clamp hold down arm if

necessary and rout through both pieces. When finished processing your thinner material,

remove the shim material and readjust the clamp if necessary. You are again ready for your

regular thickness material.
