Fitting the Parallel Guide
When grooving or chamfering, use of the Parallel Guide (16) will help to ensure that accurate cuts
are made
1. Configure the Parallel Guide as shown using the fittings provided to secure the Parallel Guide to
the Guide Rods (15)
2. Insert the Guide Rods into the Guide Rod Slots (14) on the required side
3. Loosen the Guide Rod Locking Knobs (8), slide the Parallel Guide to the approximate required
position relative to the cutter (measure if necessary), and re-tighten the Guide Rod Locking Knobs
4. When making the cut, keep the vertical edge of the Parallel Guide held against the edge of the
workpiece (Fig. I)
Fitting the Circle Guide
The Circle Guide (22) allows accurate circles and arcs to be cut
1. Position a Guide Rod (15) into the rear Guide Rod Slot (14)
2. Fit the Circle Guide onto the end of the Guide Rod as shown
3. Adjust the Guide Rod to the required length and tighten the Guide Rod Locking Knob (8) on the
flat area of the Guide Rod. Move the Guide Rod Locking Knob from the other side to the Guide
Rod Locking Knob Thread (18) and tighten
4. Adjust the Circle Guide Screw (24) and Circle Guide Wing Nut (21) fitted to the Circle Guide as
required depending on how you will anchor the Circle Guide. The Circle Guide Wing Nut may be
used to create the required height to the workpiece or secure the Circle Guide to the workpiece
when placed underneath the workpiece at the end of the screw thread
5. Ensure the Circle Guide assembly is held securely on the Guide Rod by tightening the screw head
or wing nut so the Circle Guide assembly is compressed and tight on the Guide Rod
6. Adjust the Guide Rod position in the guide rod mountings to the required length (radius) from
anchor position to centre of router bit cutter
7. Ensure the anchor point is secure and with both hands securely holding the router make the
required arc cut (Fig. II)
IMPORTANT: Note the cutting direction indicated in Fig. II. It is important the cut is made in a
clockwise motion around the pivot point as shown.
Using the Guide Bush Plate
A Guide Bush can be used when template/jig cutting. A Guide Bush Plate is provided (18mm
external diameter, 16mm internal diameter).
A template or jig can be clamped on top of a workpiece so that the router can create exact size
shapes, patterns or writing in a workpiece surface, such as signs (fig.IV). It can also create holes for
devices that are mounted in wood such as basins, taps, etc.
1. Fit the Guide Bush (28) into the recess in the base plate of the router by removing the 2 screws
(image C) while holding in position the Dust Extraction Assembly (10)
2. Insert the Guide Bush and refit the screws (image D)
Note: Ensure the central opening diameter of the guide bush is correct for the required router
cutter fitted to the tool.
Note: Always refit the Guide Bush Screws after removing the Guide Bush Plate to secure the dust
extraction assembly.
Adjusting the Plunge Depth
1. If not at full height, stand the router on a flat surface and hold the router securely with two hands,
apply controlled pressure downwards on the router, then release the Plunge Lock Lever (1) and
allow the router to reset to its full height
2. Adjust the Depth Stop (17) by slackening the Depth Stop Lock (11) and adjusting to the
maximum height
3. Turn the Turret Stop (12) to the lowest height position under the Depth Stop
4. Plunge the router until the router cutter is touching the work surface and Lock the Plunge Lock
Lever at this height.
5. Use the Depth Scale (2) and Depth Stop Height Indicator (19) to work out the additional depth
you need for the cut
6. Re-tighten the Depth Stop Lock at the correct height for the required cut so when plunged the
correct depth of the router bit cutter is exposed to the material
Note: The scales and indicators can be used to check changes in depth setting, but actual cutting
depth is best measured by making a trial cut on scrap material.

Using the Turret Stop
The Turret Stop (12) allows 3 different plunge depths to be configured for fast switching during
use. This can massively speed up operations or allow a multi-step procedure to reaching the final
required depth of cut. This is especially important where the workpiece is more difficult to cut, i.e.
harder wood or when a better finish is required in some situations.
• Adjust the 3 Depth Stop Pins (13) to the 3 required height positions by loosening the nut on the
pin and adjust the height with a slotted head screwdriver. Re-tighten the nut
• Simply rotate the turret stop to the required height. For multi-step cut rotate to the highest
required position and perform the cut. Then rotate the turret to the next lowest position you
require and continue making deeper cuts until you reach the required depth
Note: If the Turret Stop becomes loose, tighten the Phillips screw at the centre.
Setting the Depth of Cut
• To lock the router at a set depth of cut without using plunge in use, set the plunge depth as
described in 'Adjusting the plunge depth'
• Release the Plunge Lock Lever (1) and plunge the router head down to the set Depth Stop
(17) position
• Lock the Plunge Lock Lever with the Depth Stop contacting the Turret Stop
IMPORTANT: It is more dangerous to start the router with the cutter already exposed below the
base and requires extra care in use.
Using With a Router Table
The router is fitted with a safety switch that will not lock ON.
To use in a router table with a master switch, the router must be adapted so the ON/OFF Switch (5)
is held in. (Fig. VI)
A suitable sized G or F-Clamp could be used to clamp the ON/OFF Switch ON. (Fig. VII & VIII)
Silverline have a range of clamps available for purchase, which could be used to clamp the ON/
OFF Switch ON.
IMPORTANT: Ensure not too much pressure is applied to the ON/OFF Switch which could damage it.
IMPORTANT: Never block any motor vents on the tool.
Operation
WARNING: ALWAYS wear eye protection, adequate respiratory and hearing protection, as well as
suitable non-fabric gloves, when working with this tool.
IMPORTANT: Ensure the Motor Vents (4) and other vents of the tool are kept clean. Use a vacuum
cleaner to ensure the vents are clean. If necessary blow out with compressed air.
Switching ON & OFF
1. Ensure that the router bit is held securely in the collet, and that the router bit cutter is not in
contact with the workpiece or any other object
2. Start the motor by squeezing the ON/OFF Switch (5)
3. Stop the motor by releasing the ON/OFF Switch
Speed Control
The speed of the router is set using the Speed Adjustment Dial (3). A higher number corresponds
to a higher motor speed.
IMPORTANT: Never exceed the maximum speed of the router bit.
Note: Choosing the correct speed for the router bit and material will produce a higher quality finish,
and prolong the service life of your router bits.
