Step 6: Install the Insert Plate
Place the insert plate with the router attached in the table top opening,
resting it on the eight set screws (#10) in the plate levelers (#7). Using the
hex wrench (#9), adjust the set screws from under the table to align the
surfaces of the plate and the table. Check the alignment with a straight
edge. Make sure all eight set screws are in equal contact with the insert
plate. Thread the four ¼-20 x 1 ¾" machine screws [lock-down screws]
(#12) through the countersunk holes in the insert plate and into the center
hole in each leveler and snug them down. Some adjustment of the lock
down screws and set screws may be necessary to fi ne-tune the alignment.
Step 7: Add the Starting Pin
Thread the ¼-20 x ¾" set screw (#13) into the bottom of the brass
starting pin (#14) and tighten the assembly with a straight-slot screwdriver
and 1/8" hex wrench (#9). When ready for use, thread the starting pin
assembly into the threaded hole in the insert plate and tighten it.
The starting pin is useful when routing along curved edges. It can only be
used with router bits that have a guide bearing. To use the starting pin,
begin with your workpiece touching the pin, but not in contact with the
router bit. Slowly pivot the workpiece into the bit until the workpiece makes
contact with the bit guide bearing. Always feed the workpiece so the router
bit rotates against (not with) the feed direction.
With the workpiece in solid contact with the guide bearing, you can ease
off of the starting pin and allow the workpiece to glide along the guide
bearing.
