OPERATION

Introduction
See Fig 16
• The main calibration scales on the table are for
reference only. They do not relate to any actual
dimensions, which are determined by the diameter of
the cutter used
• Unlike the saw's rip fence, the router fence does not
have to be locked parallel on the table. The readings in
both fence windows may differ
• Wherever possible use both side pressure and down
pressure fingers. When they cannot be used ensure the
workpiece is pressed down on the table and against
the fence during the cut
• It is always best to do a test run irst on an offcut of the
material you will be working with, to ensure the desired
cut is achieved
• When using narrow cutters or when working on small
components, slide the MDF fence faces toward each
other until they just clear the cutter. This provides
maximum support for the workpiece, close to the cutter
(Fig 16)

EDGE REBATING

See Figs 17 & 18
• Edge rebates are generally performed using a straight
cutter. If using a bearing guided rebate cutter, refer to
'Edge Moulding'
• Always it the router fence when edge rebating
1. Start by setting the router fence flush with the cutter
2. Use a wooden straight edge along the fence face
and rotate the cutter until its cutting edge is in the
outermost position
3. Adjust the fence until the front and rear scale readings
are similar and the straight edge is touching the cutter,
then lock the fence
• When rebating to match the thickness of a component
(eg. a cabinet backing), use an offcut of that
component to set up the cut as follows:

• When using cutters larger than 25mm (approx. 1")
