ADJUSTING DEPTH AND HEIGHT OF
CUT (Fig. 22 and Detail 22)
1. Select a board that is smooth and straight,
with good square edges.
2. Mark lines "A" and "B" on the end of the
board, as shown in Detail 22.
•
Line "A" indicates the desired height
of cut.
•
Line "B" indicates the desired final depth
of cut.
•
The area outlined by "A," "B," and the edge
of the board is the area that will be cut away.
3. If the desired depth of cut can be cut in a
single pass, loosen the fence clamping
knobs and move the fence forward or
backward until the outermost cutting edge of
the router bit is aligned with line "B."
NOTE: For deeper cuts, DO NOT attempt to
make the cut in a single pass. Make multiple
shallower cuts, progressively moving the
fence backward until the desired depth of cut
is reached.
4. Use the scales on the tabletop (1) as a guide
to align the fence; then SECURELY tighten
both fence clamping knobs (18).
Always make sure that the
fence and guard cannot
come in contact with the router bit. Failure to
do so will result in damage to the router table
and can cause personal injury.
5. Following the instructions that came with
your router, adjust the router height of cut
until the top of the router bit lines up with line
"A. "
6. Once all adjustments have been made,
double-check that:
•
The router is SECURELY tightened in
the router base.
•
The router bit is SECURELY tightened in
the router collet, with at least 3/4" shank
engagement.
•
The router base is SECURELY tightened to
the bottom of the router table.

7. Remove the board from the table.
NOTE: When making adjustments, use
a piece of scrap wood to make trial cuts
before making the cut with the actual
workpiece.
8. Turn the router on and make desired cut in
the workpiece.
