• Mount the cutter in the collet (45) as described in
the router manual.
• Set the screw (47) of the depth gauge (46) to a
height of 19 mm. Lock the screw with the wing nut.
• Place the depth gauge with the screw on the
cutter as shown (fig. K5).
• Use the fine adjuster of the router to adjust the
cutter exactly to the depth gauge.
Instructions for use
Always observe the safety instructions
and applicable regulations. Also refer to
your router manual.
Dovetailing (fig. L1 - L4)
• Place the router on the fingers of the template.
• Switch the router on.
• Carefully guide the router from right to left along
the tops of the fingers.
• Move the router from left to right, inserting it
carefully into the fingers until the copying bush is
in contact with the edge of the template.
• Never lift the router out of the template;
this could result in damage to the
template and the cutter.
• When moving the router onto and from
the template, make sure that the router
is switched off.
Trial cuts
It is recommended always to make a trial cut using
pieces of scrap wood in order to check the settings.
• Fit the trial pieces together and check the joint
(fig. M).
• If the dovetail joint is too loose, slightly increase
the depth adjustment using the fine adjuster.
• If the dovetail joint is too tight, slightly decrease
the depth adjustment using the fine adjuster.
• If the dovetail joint is too shallow, move the
template slightly backward.
• If the dovetail joint is too deep, move the
template slightly forward.
Dovetailing rebated workpieces (fig. N1 - N10)
Workpieces with the rebate (49) at the same side as
the dovetail (fig. N1) are routed separately from one
another.

• Clamp part (50) in vertical position as described
above. To avoid chipping, clamp a piece of scrap
wood in horizontal position behind it.
• Install the template and rout the dovetail as
described above.
• Remove part (50) and clamp part (51) in
horizontal position as described above. Adjust
the template so that the rear edge of the rebate
coincides with the marking line on the dovetailing
fingers.
• Rout the dovetail as described above.
Workpieces with the rebate (53) at a side without a
dovetail (fig. N5) are routed in pairs as for normal
workpieces. Special stop pins are used to obtain the
correct results.
• Replace the normal stop pin (29) (fig. F1) with the
rebating pin (54) (fig. N6).
• Loosen the locking bush (55) and set the
rebating pin (54) to the correct length.
The distance from the stop to the end of the
rebating pin should equal the depth of the rebate
plus one half of the pitch. For example, with a
rebate of 10 mm and a pitch of 22 mm,
the distance must be set to 21 mm.
• Tighten the locking bush (55).
• Repeat this procedure for the other stop.
• Proceed as for normal dovetailing.
