When the router is installed in a router table,
it can be adjusted with a 1/8" hex wrench, not
included with all models. (See page 21).
The RA1002 Fine Adjustment Control
Extension, an optional accessory for the non-
plunge bases, allows fine adjustment from
beyond the top of the motor housing. To
install, simply press the RA1O02 into the end
of the base's own fine adjustment knob.
(Fig. 12)
TO CLAMP MOTOR
When final coarse and fine adjustments have
been made, fasten the base clamp lever to
secure adjustments. (if additional clamping
force is desired: using a 10 mm wrench,
rotate clamp nut clockwise SLIGHTLY (1/8
turn or less), then test clamp. Do not over-
tighten.)
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.
DEPTH ADJUSTMENT WITH PLUNGE
BASE PLUNGING ACTION
The plunge feature simplifies depth
adjustments and will allow the cutting bit to
easily and accurately enter the workpiece. To
lower, push plunge lock lever to the left, apply
downward pressure until you reach desired
depth, and release pressure on lever to lock
(Fig. 13). The plunge lock lever is spring
loaded and returns automatically to the locked
position. To raise the router, push plunge lock
lever to the left, release pressure on router and
the router will automatically retract the bit from
the workpiece. It is advisable to retract the bit
whenever it is not engaged in workpiece.
DEPTH ROD AND TURRET
The depth rod and the depth stop turret are
used to control cutting depth as follows;
1. With the bit installed, gently lower the motor
until the tip of the router bit just contacts the
level surface the router is sitting on. This is
the "zero" position, from which further depth
adjustments can be accurately made.
2. To set a desired depth of cut, rotate depth
stop turret until the lowest step is aligned
with the depth rod. Loosen depth indicator
knob and lower the depth rod until it
contacts the lowest step of the turret. Slide
the depth indicator until the red line indicates
zero on the depth scale, indicating the point
at which the bit just contacts the work
(Fig. 14).
3. To set a desired cutting depth, slide the
depth rod up until the red depth indicator line
attains the desired cutting depth, and secure
the rod in position by firmly tightening the
depth indicator knob.
4. The desired depth of cut may now be
achieved by plunging the router until the
depth rod contacts the selected stop on the
turret.
