5. Move the hood into place beneath the guide
assembly.
6. Insert the two center screws into the guide
assembly and screw into the nuts in the
hood.
The dust extraction hood is sized to accept
35mm vacuum hoses. Also included is an
adapter that will connect the hood to 1-1/4" and
1-1/2" vacuum hoses. Do not use this hood at
the same time you are using any other dust
extraction hood with the router.

ATTACHING THE GUIDE
TO THE ROUTER
1. Insert guide rods F into router base. For
maximum stability, make sure each rod goes
through both holes and protrudes out the
other side of the router base. (At a minimum,
the rods must be inserted far enough into
the router base that they are both supported
from below at a point beyond the two
knurled thumbscrews (N).)
2. Securely fasten the router to the rods by
tightening the thumbscrews N. (Depending on
the router model, another set of wing knobs
(O) may be used instead of the knurled
thumbscrews.) (Fig. 1 or 3.)
ADJUSTING THE ROUTER
GUIDE POSITION
The router may be positioned either directly
over the guide plates for edge forming
operations or for the creation of slots near the
workpiece edge or beyond the guide plates for
creating slots away from the workpiece edge.
For initial adjustment, slide the router guide
assembly along the rods to the approximate
desired position and securely tighten the rear
set of wing knobs (I). (Fig. 1)
To determine the distance between the bit and
the face plates, place a ruler in the recess in
the bottom of the guide, and measure the

distance from the face of the guide plates to
the outermost edge of the router bit. (Fig. 5)

For fine adjustment:
1. Without moving the fine adjustment knob,
move the fine adjustment indicator (L) so
C
that the '0' position aligns with the indicator
on the fine adjustment guide (J). This
makes it easier to precisely move the guide
in or out by the desired amount.
2. Loosen the front wing knobs (G).
3. To move the router in towards router guide,
turn fine adjustment knob (K) clockwise
(when viewed from back of the router guide)
To move router away from router guide, turn
it counterclockwise. The total travel per
revolution of the knob is 5/64" or 2 mm.
4. When the guide is in the desired location,
securely tighten wing knobs (G).
Moving the guide plates (D) to their outermost
position extends the overall length of the guide
surface and provides added stability on long
workpieces. (Fig. 6)
