2. Feed the bars on the parallel
guide through the holes in the
router base plate (13) on the right
hand side of the router in the
feed direction. This will assist in
keeping the guide flush with the
side of the work piece.
3. Adjust the distance
between the router bit
and parallel guide by
moving the guide until it is
at the correct distance.
4. Tighten the parallel guide
locking knobs (15) to hold
the parallel guide in position.
5. It is possible to make
fine adjustments to the
distance between the parallel
guide and the router bit,
by loosening the centre lock
on the guide and turning
knob (23). One complete
turn of the knob is equivalent
to 1.5mm.
6. Tighten the centre lock on the
guide when you have made
your fine adjustment.
NOTE. If the distance between
the side of the work piece and
the cutting position is too wide,
or the side of the work piece is
not straight, firmly clamp a straight
board to the work piece and use
this as a guide against the router
base.
Dust extraction
There are three different ways of connecting the router to a
dust extraction system or to a household vacuum cleaner
nozzle allowing the dust to be efficiently removed as the tool
is used.
• Method 1 (when using
the parallel guide and
cutting a shape on the edge
of a workpiece)
Connect the dust extraction
adaptor (25) to the parallel guide.
A vacuum system can then be
connected to adaptor.
• Method 2 (when connecting
a vacuum system to the top
of the router)
Insert the dust extraction adaptor
(14) in the hole in the router
housing above the dust extraction
tube (21).
Ensure that the dust extraction
tube is in its lowest position and is
locked into place with lock (24).
Connect a vacuum system
to the adaptor.
• Method 3 (when connecting a
vacuum system to the base plate
of the router)
Unlock dust extraction tube, raise
the tube to its highest position
and lock it in place with lock (24).
Insert the dust extraction adaptor
in the hole in the base plate under
the dust extraction tube.
Connect a vacuum system to the adaptor.
CAUTION. When working on metal surfaces, do not use any
dust extraction system such as a vacuum cleaner. Sparks can
ignite the dust.
