13 OPERA TION ADJUSTING DEPTH OF CUT Proper depth of cut depends on several factors: the peak horsepower of the router motor, the type of cutter, and the type of wood. A lightweight, low horsepower router is designed for making shallow cuts. A router with a high horsepower rating can safely cut deeper. Small cutters, such as veining bits with 1/16 [...]

14 TO ADJUST DEPTH OF CUT FOR PLUNGE BASE ROUTERS See Figures 11, 12, and 13. Follow these steps to adjust depth of cut for plunge base routers. 1. Unplug the router. W ARNING: F ailure to unplug the tool could result in serious injury due to accidental star ting. 2. Place the router on a flat surface. 3. Loosen the stop bar knob. 4. Unlock the plu[...]

15 FEEDING THE ROUTER The “secret” of professional routing and edge shaping lies in making a careful set-up for the cut and in selecting the proper rate of feed. DIRECTION (EXTERNAL) See Figures 14 and 15. When routing, the cutter rotates clockwise. Therefore, you should feed the router into the workpiece from left to right. When you feed the r[...]

16 OPERA TION RATE OF FEED The proper rate of feed depends on several factors: the hardness and moisture content of the wood, the depth of cut, and the cutting diameter of the bit. When cutting shallow grooves in soft woods such as pine, a faster rate of feed can be used. When making deep cuts in hardwoods such as oak, a slower rate of feed should [...]

17 OPERA TION DETERMINING DEPTH OF CUT See Figure 19 . As previously mentioned, the depth of cut is important because it affects the rate of feed that, in turn, affects the quality of the cut (and, also, the possibility of damage to your router motor and bit). A deep cut requires a slower feed than a shallow one, and a too deep cut will cause you t[...]

18 OPERA TION When routing a groove wider than the diameter of the cutter, clamp a straightedge on both sides of the cutlines. Position both guides parallel to the desired line of cut and spaced equal distances from the desired edges of the groove. Rout along one guide; then, reverse direction and rout along the other guide. Clean out any remaining[...]

19 OPERA TION EDGING WITH PILOTS See Figure 22. You can cut rabbets and molded edges using piloted cutters. The pilot, which extends below the cutter, allows the cutter to turn while the pilot follows the edge of the workpiece. Some pilots are solid extensions of the cutter. Others are ball bearing guides that are fastened to the end of the cutter.[...]

20 ROUTER TEMPLATE GUIDE BUSHING KIT Sizes: 5/16 in., 7/16 in. (Short), 7/16 in. (Long), 1/2 in., and 5/8 in. ROUTING WITH THE GUIDE BUSHING You can accurately duplicate curves and complex shapes by fitting your router with a template guide bushing that extends below the subbase. The router bit passes through the guide bushing. The guide bushing th[...]
