3. The overlapping piece of laminate should
overlap the guiding piece by about 1/2".
(The overlapping sheet of laminate will
then pass over the aluminum plate and be
cut at the proper point by the router bit.)
4. Keep steady pressure on the tool so that
the guiding edge of the base remains in
contact with the fixed piece of laminate
throughout the operation. This is especially
important at the beginning and end of a
cut.
PR007 SIDE-HANDLE SUBBASE
(Available as optional accessory)
See PR007 instruction sheet for complete
information about this accessory.
The PR007 Side-Handle Subbase and Dust
Extraction Kit (Fig. 35) is a versatile
accessory that provides several useful
features:
• Additional means of supporting the router
• Dust extraction and collection capability
PR007 Attachment to Palm Router
1. Remove regular subbase
2. Attach side handle subbase with the
panhead screws that are included with it.
Additional Means of Supporting
the Router
The knob handle on the PR007 subbase
provides an additional gripping point for the
palm router / side-handle subbase assembly.
It is designed for use when the palm routers
are being used in applications that are wide
enough that the knob sits over the workpiece.
Holding the knob and keeping it pressed
down over the workpiece helps keep the
routers' angle to the workpiece unchanged,
and is especially helpful when routing edges.
Attachment of PR006 Underscribe
Attachment
The PR006 Underscribe Attachment can also
be used with the palm router and the side-
handle subbase.
Note: When the underscribe attachment is
used with the side-handle subbase, the
longer set of attachment screws should be
used.
Please refer to PR006 Underscribe
Attachment section for further instructions.

5. It is also necessary to keep the laminate
pressed down tightly near the seam to
keep these chips from getting under the
laminate. This is especially important on
larger pieces of material. The optional
PR007 Side Handle Subbase includes a
dust extraction hood port that connects to
a vacuum hose and helps to keep chips
from getting under the laminate.
