Deep Cuts
The proper cutting depth for each pass is always determined by the material, the
cutting bit size and type, and the power of the router motor.
Always make several progressively deeper cuts by starting at one depth and then
make several passes, each time increasing the cutting; depth until your desired
depth is reached.
Making a cut that is too deep will stress the router motor and the cutting bit, and
it may burn the work piece and dull the cutting bit. It could also "grab" too much
of the work piece and cause you to lose control of the router, causing a serious
accident.
To be certain that your depth settings are as desired, always make test cuts in
scrap material similar to your work piece before beginning your final cutting.
Remember, knowing the right depth for each cut comes with routing experience.
TOGGLE "ON/OFF" SWITCH (Fig. 7)
"four router motor is turned
"ON" and "OFF" by the toggle
switch located on the top cap
of the router motor.
The left side of the toggle
switch hood (as you face it) is
marked "1" for "On" and the
right side (as you face it) is
marked "O" for "Off°"
TO TURN THE ROUTER MOTOR
"ON," Push the toggle switch
to the left side marked "1," or
"On."
TO TURN THE ROUTER MOTOR
"OFF" Push the toggle switch to the right side marked "O," or "Off."
When turning the toggle switch "On," always support ohe edge of the router base
on the work piece while holding the cutting bit away frdm the work piece. Only
contact the work piece with the cutting bit after the rou_ter has reached full speed,.
ONLY remove the router and cutting bit from the work piece AFTER turning the
router motor "OFF," and the cutting bit has come to a cbmplete stop.
Operating in this manner will increase toggle switch and motor life, and will in-
crease the quality of your work.
