How to Fit and Remove a Router Cutter Fitting Cutters n Insert at least of the shank length of the cutter (1) into the collet. n Press the spindle lock (2) forward until the router spindle is locked (you may need to turn the spindle slightly to engage it).

15mm Trend Routing Catalogue. Stationary use 75mm When the T9 is used in a stationary position with a no volt release switch (ref. NVRS/230V or NVRS/230V/EUR) fitted, a trigger lock (ref. T9/LOCK) is available which will lock the trigger in the ‘on’ position.
OPERATION Cutting Direction Sequence of plunging The direction of routing must always be opposite to the cutter’s direction of rotation. Otherwise there is a risk of Step One kick-back. Plunge down and lock the motor carriage, by depressing the plunge Feed direction locking lever.
Side-fence Routing The side-fence is used to guide the router when moulding, edge profiling or rebating the edge of the workpiece or when routing grooves and slots in the centre of the workpiece, parallel to the edge. The edge of the workpiece must be straight and true.
Fitting the Template Guide Bush and Inner Plate The T9 has a unique built-in line up system for the template guide bush. This system ensures that the guide bush is exactly concentric to the router cutter to ensure accurate work.
Routing with a Template The guide bush is used in conjunction with a template when the routing operation is repetitive or the workpiece is complex in shape. The template is fixed to the upper surface of the workpiece. A cutter is chosen with a diameter which will pass through the centre of the bush leaving enough clearance.
Beam Trammel Routing using Accessory Ref. BEAM/009 Cutting Arcs with the Router n Place the machine on the workpiece. n Set the cutting depth using the depth stop dial (2). n Fasten the fence rod (1) in the routing base (3) with the thumb knob (4).
Bearing Guided Cutters Bearing Guided Cutters Edge profiling and shaping cutters are available with a bearing fitted to the end. This enables shaped or straight workpieces to be routed without the need for a guiding device such as a side-fence or batten. The edge must be free from imperfections as these will be reflected in the finish of the mould.
Freehand Routing with the Router The T9 can also be used for signwriting or creative freehand work without any form of guide. With practice, numbers or name plate designs can be routed freehand. Draw the design or motif on the workpiece and then rout the design, taking shallow passes.
