PR005 TILT BASE
(Included with PR20EVSNK. Also available as
optional accessory)
The PR005 Tilt Base (Fig. 30) is used for the
following purposes:
• Trimming laminated edges at the point that
they reach adjacent vertical surface, such as
a kitchen counter's backsplash (Fig. 32).
• Trimming special angles (Fig. 31)
• Making bevel cuts. One method of obtaining
a consistent bevel cut is to securely clamp a
board or other straightedge to the work
surface, and guide the edge of the router
subbase along this path (Fig. 15).
Motor Installation
The motor is installed according to the
instructions on page 9.
Angle Adjustment
The total tilt range is 75 °, from 45 ° forward to
30 ° backward.
To adjust the angle (Fig. 32):
1. Loosen the two wing screws.
2. Adjust the angle as desired using the scale
on the left side of the base. Note that there
are detents at every 7.5 ° . Whenever
possible, the base should be positioned with
the motor tilted toward the closed end of the
base.
3. Tighten the wing screws. Be careful not to
over-tighten, or the base may be damaged.
Depth Adjustment
The depth is adjusted according to the
instructions on page 12.
Using the Tilt Router
The principles of using the tilt router are
basically the same as for the regular router set-
up (motor in fixed-base assembly), with the
following difference.
1. The PR005 should always be used with a
self-piloted or bearing bit.
2. The proper grip position depends on the
angle of the cut and the tool. The router
should be gripped with one hand gripping
the motor and the other gripping the
elsewhere on the back of the tool.
To reduce the risk of injury,
never grip the base directly
above or next to the exposed bit.
3. When trimming edges while the bit is tilted
toward the direction of feed, it is extremely
important to keep the base square with the

surface to be routed. If the tilt router is
shifted in the direction of the surface it is
riding on, the upper part of the cutter can dig
far into the workpiece.
