ADJUSTMENTS
DEPTH STOP SYSTEM (Continued)
5. Raise cutter by depressing plunge release actuator.
6. Place router on flat surface, and lower router until tip of
cutter barely touches flat surface.
7. Squeeze plunge lock actuator to lock cutter at "zero"
depth of cut.
8. Turn adjustment knob counterclockwise to lower stop
bar against the stop, then tighten lock knob securely.
The highest stop now becomes the "zero" depth of cut
setting.
9. Depress plunge release actuator and raise router. Ro-
tate stop block so that next highest depth stop aligns
with stop bar. This locates cutter for the initial pass.
10. Rotate depth stop blOck after each pass. Make as
many successive passes as needed to obtain desired
depth of cut, progressively lowering router to next depth
of cut setting with each pass.
ZERO RESET INDICATOR
See Figure 11.
The zero reset indicator allows you to use the scale provided
on the housing to make quick depth of cut changes to existing
depth of cut settings. Simply choose a reference point on the
scale and slide zero reset indicator up or down scale the
distance required for new depth of cut. Then change stop bar
position by loosening lock knob and turning adjustment knob
until white line on zero reset indicator moves back to refer-
ence point. Tighten lock knob securely to lock stop bar in new
position. The cutter position will now increase or decrease
the exact distance the stop bar was adjusted.
Remember: Each mark on the inch scale indicates a 1/32
in. change in depth setting while each mark on the metric
scale equals a lmm change in depth setting; depth control
knob should be used for making precise adjustments to depth
of cut; and depressing center of depth adjustment knob quick
releases stop bar.
