ing plate so fastener heads will be slightly
below top surface of plate. This will pre-
vent workpiece catching on fasteners during
operation.

router, so marks made on all three face you
(see Figure 29).
12. Align mounting holes in base, plate, and
router, fasten mounting plate to router
through base (see Figure 29), then insert
assembly into router table from top.
Figure 29. Example of a router attached to

Dust Collection

This machine creates a lot of wood chips/
dust during operation. Breathing airborne
dust on a regular basis can result in perma-
nent respiratory illness. Reduce your risk
by wearing a respirator and capturing the
dust with a dust-collection system.
Minimum CFM at Dust Port: 150 CFM
Do not confuse this CFM recommendation with
the rating of the dust collector. To determine the
CFM at the dust port, you must consider these
variables: (1) CFM rating of the dust collector,
(2) hose type and length between the dust col-
lector and the machine, (3) number of branches
or wyes, and (4) amount of other open lines
throughout the system. Explaining how to cal-
culate these variables is beyond the scope of
this manual. Consult an expert or purchase a
good dust collection "how-to" book.
To connect dust collection system to machine:
1. Fit 2 ⁄ " dust hose over the dust chute, as

shown in Figure 30, or remove dust chute
and attach a 1 ⁄

Secure in place with a hose clamp.

performance.
