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 waste
in the center of the groove freehand.
FITTING AND ADJUSTING THE PARALLEL GUIDE
See Figure 12.
1. Insert the parallel guide into the hole of the router
base.
2. Draw a cutting line on the workpiece.
3. Lower the router body until the cutter is in contact with
the workpiece.
4. Position the router on the cutting line. The outer cutting
edge of the cutter must coincide with the cutting line.
5. Without moving the router, push the guide to the edge
of the workpiece before tightening the lock knob.
ROUTING BY FREEHAND
When used freehand, your plunge router becomes a
À exible and versatile tool. This À exibility makes it possible
to easily rout signs, relief sculptures, etc.. There are two
basic techniques for freehand routing:
Routing letters, grooves, and patterns into wood.
Routing out the background, leaving the letters or
pattern raised above the surface.
When freehand routing, we suggest the following:
1. Draw or layout the pattern on workpiece.
2. Choose the appropriate cutter.
NOTE: A core box or V-groove bit is often used for routing
letters and engraving objects. Straight bits and ball mills
are often used to make relief carvings. Veining bits are
used to carve small, intricate details.
3. Rout the pattern in two or more passes. Make the ¿ rst
pass at 25% of the desired depth of cut. This process
will provide better control as well as being a guide for
the next pass.
4. Do not rout deeper than 1/8 in (3.2 mm) per pass or cut.
Follow these directions when routing by freehand:
1. Choose the appropriate cutter, set desired depth of
cut, carefully check set-up, and secure workpiece.
2. Make a test cut in a scrap piece of wood from the
same workpiece if possible.
3. Unlock plunge lock lever to raise cutter from any
preset depth of cut. This also permits raising cutter
inside router base.
4. Place router on workpiece inside pattern to be routed.
5. Grasp handles securely and press the switch to start
your router.

6. Let motor build to full speed, then gradually plunge
cutter into workpiece until stop bar comes into contact
with depth stop.
7. Lock plunge lock lever to secure depth of cut setting.
8. Begin routing out the pattern, continuing until a
complete pass at this depth of cut has been made.
Do not use large router bits for freehand routing. Use
of large router bits when freehand routing could cause
loss of control or create other hazardous conditions that
could cause possible serious personal injury.
9. Several cuts that require repositioning of router may
be needed for a particular job. If this situation exists,
unlock plunge lock lever to raise cutter inside router
base after each cut, reposition router for next cut,
gradually plunge cutter into workpiece until stop
bar contacts depth stop, lock plunge lock lever and
continue routing.
10. After all cuts have been made, unlock plunge lock
lever, raise cutter inside router base, remove router
from workpiece, turn off the router, and allow cutter to
come to a complete stop.
ROUTING EDGES
Place router on workpiece, making sure the router bit does
not contact workpiece. Turn router on and let the motor
build to its full speed. Begin your cut, gradually feeding
cutter into workpiece.
Keep a ¿ rm grip on router with both hands at all times.
Failure to do so could result in loss of control leading to
possible serious injury.
Upon completion of cut, turn motor off and let it come to a
complete stop before removing router from work surface.
Never pull router out of work and place upside down on
work surface before the cutter stops.
CONNECTING A DUST EXTRACTOR
See Figure 13.
The dust extractor hose can be connected to the dust
extraction channel.
