DEPTH ADJUSTMENT WITH FIXED BASE
FINE ADJUSTMENT KNOB
The pop up fine depth adjustment knob
allows precise bit height adjustments on your
router.
To use the fine adjustment feature, release
the base clamp lever, pull up the fine
adjustment knob and turn the knob clockwise
to lower, or counterclockwise to raise the bit
(Fig. 2).
(Note that one full turn of the knob will raise or
lower the bit approximately 1/16"of an inch.)
After making depth adjustments, re-clamp
the motor.
NOTE: All depth adjustments must be made
with the base clamp lever released.
DEEP CUTS
For deeper cuts, make several progressively
deeper cuts by starting at one depth and
then make several subsequent passes,
increasing the cutting depth with each pass.
To be certain that your depth settings are as
desired, you may want to make test cuts in
scrap material before beginning work.
