3. Tighten the fine adjustment knob (9f) clockwise until stop.
4. Fix the guide rods (9h x2) in the guide base assembly (9a) by tightening the guide
base fixing knobs (9b x2) clockwise.
5. Loosen the parallel guide fixing knobs (13) anticlockwise (Fig. C, step 1).
6. Align the guide rods (9h x2) to the mounting holes of base plate (11) and insert the
two guide rods (9h x2) (Fig. C, step 2).
7. Move the parallel guide assembly (9) in the rail of base plate (11) to adjust the
desired working position.
WARNING!
To ensure the safety and quality of parallel cutting, the two
guide rods (9h x2) shall be inserted into the base plate (11) sufficiently
until the tips come out from the other side of the base plate.
8. Fix the parallel guide assembly (9) in position by tightening the parallel guide fixing
knobs (13) clockwise.
Fine adjustment of parallel guide assembly (Fig. B)
The distance between guide base assembly (9a) and router bit can precisely adjusted
by turning the fine adjustment knob (9f). Each scale mark corresponds 0.1 mm and 1
turn corresponds 2.0 mm. The adjustment range is approx. 0-16 mm for reducing the
distance between guide base assembly (9a) and router bit.
1. Draw orientation line/cross/channel for cutting.
2. Prepare the rough setting of the distance between the router bit and parallel guide
as instructed above (“inserting”) while the distance should be 1-3mm away from
than the target distance.
3. Loosen the guide base fixing knobs (9b x2) anticlockwise (Fig. B, step 2).
4. Lean the edge of the guide base assembly (9a) against the workpiece edge firmly
and loosen the fine adjustment knob (9f) anti-clockwise to move the router closer
to the guide base assembly (9a) until the router bit reaches the desired position
precisely.
5. The scale wheel (9g) is an aid to move the router bit closer to guide base assembly
(9a) for a precise distance as follows:
a. Align the “0” mark on the scale wheel (9g) with the fixed indicator on the
adjustment guide assembly (9e) by turning the scale wheel (9g) without
touching the fine adjustment knob (9f).
b. Lean the edge of the guide base assembly (9a) against the workpiece edge
firmly and turn the fine adjustment knob (9f) anti-clockwise and scale wheel
(9g) synchronously.
c. The distance amount indicated by the scale mark and/or rounds corresponds
the movement of router towards the workpiece edge.
6. Fix the guide base assembly (9a) by tightening the guide base fixing knobs (9b x2)
clockwise (Fig. C, step 3).
Centre pin (Fig. B, C, D, E)
Use the centre pin (21) to cut circles, arcs or circular pattern into the workpiece.
1. Loosen the adjustment guide fixing knobs (9d x2) anticlockwise (Fig. B, step 1).
2. Loosen the guide base fixing knobs (9b x2) anticlockwise (Fig. B, step 2).
3. Remove the guide rods (9h x2) and keep the springs safe.
4. Loosen fine adjustment knob (9f) completely and remove it (Fig. B, step 3).
5. Assemble the centre pin (21) on the adjustment guide assembly (9e) and tighten
the screw (21a) (Fig. D, step 1).
6. Insert the guide rods (9h x2) into the inner mounting holes of the adjustment guide
assembly (9e) (Fig. D, step 2) and tighten the adjustment guide fixing knobs (9d
x2) (Fig. D, step 3).
7. Loosen the parallel guide fixing knobs (13) anticlockwise (Fig. E, step 1).
8. Align the adjustment guide assembly (9e) with centre pin (21) and guide rods (9h
x2) to the mounting holes of the base plate (11) and insert it (Fig. E, step 2).
9. Slide the adjustment guide assembly (9e) with centre pin (21) and guide rods (9h
x2) in the rail of the base plate (11) to adjust to adjust the desired cutting radius “R”
which is determined by the distance between the tip of centre pin and the routing
axis (Fig. E).
WARNING!
To ensure the safety and quality of the application with centre
pin (21), the two guide rods (9h x2) shall be inserted into the base plate
(11) sufficiently until the tips come out from the other side of the base
plate.
10. Fix the adjustment guide assembly (9e) with centre pin (21) and guide rods (9h x2)
in position by tightening the parallel guide fixing knobs (13) clockwise (Fig. E, step
3).
Detaching
1. Loosen the parallel guide fixing knobs (13) anticlockwise (Fig. C, step 1).
2. Remove the parallel guide assembly (9) off the base plate (11).
3. Tighten the parallel guide fixing knobs (13) clockwise.
