PLUNGING ACTION (Fig. 8)

The plunge base feature simplifies the depth

adjustments and allows the cutter bit to be

accurately lowered down into the workpiece

for more precise set-ups.

To lower the cutter bit, release the plunge-

lock lever by moving it "Up" to the

unlocked position.

Apply an even downward pressure on the

plunge action until the cutter bit reaches the

desired depth, then move the plunge-lock

lever "Down" to the locked position.

To raise the bit and the plunge action, unlock

the plunge-lock lever and the cutter bit and

the plunge action will automatically retract

from the workpiece and return to the

raised position.

Always have the plunge action in the raised

position and locked when the bit is not

cutting in the workpiece.

PLUNGE ACTION WITH DEPTH-STOP ROD

AND DEPTH-STOP TURRET (Fig. 9)

The Depth-Stop Rod and the Depth-Stop

Turret are used to control the plunge action

cutting depth as follows:

1. Turn the motor off and unplug the router

from the power source.

2. Place the router on a flat, level surface.

3. With the cutting bit already installed,

lower the plunge action until the cutter bit

makes contact with the flat, level surface

on which the router is sitting. Lock the

plunge-depth locking lever (F). This

position is zero "0": the point from which

further depth adjustments can be made.

4. To set a desired depth-of-cut, rotate the depth-stop turret until the lowest

step of the turret (A) is aligned directly under the depth-stop rod (B) (see Fig.

9). Loosen the depth-rod locking knob (C)and lower the depth-stop rod until

it contacts the lowest step on the turret.

5. Slide the clear plastic depth indicator (D) until the red line on the indicator is

lined up with ZERO - "0" marked in black on the bottom of the depth scale.

(This is now the indicating point at which the bit makes contact with

the workpiece).
