Characteristics of routing mitred edges

Please note that a radius cannot be created due to the angle and only flush milling of mitred edges is possible.
The S8 HW OFK plane cutter for the MFK 700 Basic was specially developed for milling 0° – 45° edges.
1
First install the router cutter in the MFK 700 Basic.
3
Make sure that the extraction hood under the machine is
resting directly against the workpiece as this can be used as
a guide. Then create the radius on the wooden edge using
sandpaper.
TIP Use one of the edges on the scraper to smooth the ra-
dius on plastic edging. Use the straight edge on the scraper
to smooth and round off the flat inner angle. Draw the
scraper over the edge several times until the radius or curve
is perfect.
