The scale on the Depth Stop can be used to check changes in depth setting, but
the actual cutting depth is best measured by making a trial cut on scrap material.
The scale should be used as an approximate guide
Fitting a guide bush for use with templates & jigs
See Fig. V
•
An optional template guide bush kit is available for purchase from your
Triton stockist
1)
To install a Guide Bush (not supplied) (49), loosen the Guide Bush Locking
Screws (33) and ensure the rotating tabs are rotated away from the guide bush
2)
Line the notches on the Guide Bush with the Guide Bush Locking Screws so that
the guide bush sits centre and flush against the Plunge Base Plate (27)
3)
Rotate the tabs on the Guide Bush Locking Screws over the notches on the Guide
Bush then tighten the screws to secure the Guide Bush
4)
To remove the Guide Bush, loosen the screws, rotate the tabs then remove the
Guide Bush before retightening the Guide Bush Locking Screws
Fitting & adjusting the guide fence
See Fig. VI, VII, VIII
Note: The Guide Fence (6) is for use with the Plunge Base (9) only
•
The Guide Fence (6) can be assembled according to 'A' or 'B' (Fig. VI)
•
Ensure the scale on one of the Guide Rails (5) is facing up when tightening the
Hex Screws (51)
1)
To fit the Guide Fence, loosen the Guide Rail Locking Knobs (25) and insert the
Guide Rails of the assembled fence into the Guide Rail Slots (23) (Fig. VII)
2)
Adjust the Guide Fence to the required distance from the cutter (Fig. VII), using
the scale as an approximate guide (Fig. VIII) if used in configuration A, and
measured if used in configuration B
3)
Ensure all Guide Rail Locking Knobs are tightened to secure the Guide Fence
•
If required, faces on the Guide Fence can be removed and a batten can be
attached to ensure a completely straight Guide Fence. Always measure to the
centre point of the cutter to ensure an accurate cut
Beam trammel
•
The diameter of the Guide Rail (5) is 5/16"
•
A compatible 8mm beam trammel (not supplied) could be fitted to one of the rails
and the rail could then be fitted into one of the Guide Rail Slots (23)
Table use
•
When the Router (1) is fitted to the Plunge Base (9) it can be used in a compatible
router table
•
See Fig. XXIV for the dimensions of the Plunge Base Plate Screws (35) for
securing to a compatible table
•
The Plunge Base Plate (27) can be removed to allow fitment to a compatible
template or bracket. Consult the router table manufacturer's installation
instructions
•
The Plunge Base has a Table Height Micro Winder Connector (32) that will allow
above-table cutter height adjustment with a Triton Table Height Winder (52) if the
table has an access hole
Fitting to trimmer base
See Fig. IX
Note: If the Router (1) is attached to the Plunge Base (9), remove the Plunge Base
before attempting to fit the router to the Trimmer Base (8).
1)
Ensure the Timmer Base Locking Knob (36) is wound out so the screw is not
protruding into the base
2)
Align the Router (1) so the Securing Hole (18) is directly above the Trimmer Base
Locking Knob (Fig. IX)
3)
Place the Router into the cradle of the Trimmer Base
4)
Tighten the Trimmer Base Locking Knob (Fig. IX) to secure the Router in the
Trimmer Base
Setting the depth of cut with the trimmer base
See Fig. X
1)
Loosen the Trimmer Depth Locking Knob (37)
2)
Turn the Trimmer Depth Micro Adjustment Dial (46) to adjust the cutter height to
the required depth
3)
Lock the Trimmer Depth Locking Knob to secure the depth
Fitting & adjusting the roller guide
Notes:
•
Lateral clearance: to adjust the amount of material removed by the cutter, adjust
the horizontal clearance between the workpiece and the Guide Bearing
tritontools.com
•
Height: adjust the vertical height of the cutter depending on the thickness of the
material to be cut and the router bit to be used
See Fig. XI and XII
1)
To fit the Roller Guide (7) to the Trimmer Base (8), loosen the Roller Guide
Locking Knob (43)
2)
Slide the Roller Guide onto the Trimmer Base, ensuring the guide is aligned with
the Roller Guide Alignment Channel (47) (Fig. XI) and the Washer (44) is on the
outside of the Roller Guide
3)
Adjust the Roller Guide to the required height then tighten the Roller Guide
Locking Knob to secure the roller guide (Fig. XII)
4)
To adjust the Guide Bearing's (40) horizontal position, loosen the Roller Guide
Adjustment Locking Knob (41) then adjust with the Roller Guide Adjustment Knob
(42) (Fig. XII)
5)
Tighten the Roller Guide Adjustment Locking Knob to secure the Guide
Bearing in place
Operation
WARNING: Ensure the tool is disconnected from the power supply before
attaching/changing any accessories or making any adjustments.
WARNING: ALWAYS wear eye protection, adequate respiratory and hearing
protection, as well as suitable gloves when working with this tool.
IMPORTANT: Ensure the Motor Vents (13) and other vents of the tool are kept clean.
Metallic swarf, fibreglass, plaster and other particles and dust can damage the tool if
allowed to enter the Motor Vents. Use a vacuum cleaner to ensure the vents are clean.
If necessary, blow out with compressed air.
Switching ON & OFF
1)
To power the Router (1) ON, press the ON/OFF Switch (10) to the 'I' position
2)
To power the Router OFF, press the ON/OFF Switch to the 'O' position
3)
Always allow the tool to reach full speed before making a cut
Variable speed control
WARNING: NEVER operate router bits at speeds higher than their maximum
rated speed. If bits are used at higher speeds than their rated speed, they can break
and fly apart, potentially damaging the tool, workpiece and causing serious personal
injury.
•
Control the rotation speed of the cutter by adjusting the Speed Dial (11)
•
The highest speed is achieved when the number is set to 6
•
The lowest speed is achieved when the number is set to 1
•
Set the ideal speed for the material; consider the material and bit diameter
•
Too slow a speed can result in the cutter leaving burn marks on the material
See table below for the number to speed relationship on the dial and usage information
Number
RPM
1
11,500
2
16,500
3

6
31,000
IMPORTANT: Operating at reduced speed increases the risk of damage to the Router
(1) as a result of overload. Use very slow feed rates and/or multiple shallow cuts.
Hand-held operation
WARNING: To minimise the risk of kickback, the direction of routing must always
be in opposition to the cutter's rotational direction.
Notes:
•
Ensure all PPE/safety equipment is used when operating this tool
•
Ensure the workpiece is securely clamped to prevent any movement
during operation
•
Hold the Router (1) firmly using both hands to control the Router and keep an
even pressure and movement when cutting
•
The cutter rotates in a clockwise direction (A on Fig. XIII)
