3. Install a straight bit in the router. Place a straight edge against
the outfeed fence face and position the fence so the bit just
grazes the straight edge.
NOTE: Make sure all rods are clear of cutter.
NOTE: Any straight bit can be used for jointing. A flush-trim
bit is the easiest to set up because the bit guide bearing is the
same diameter as the cutter and it can be aligned to the outfeed
fence face with the bearing. An up-cut spiral bit produces an
almost chatter-free surface, but it is more difficult to align with
the fence face.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
WARNING
When servicing, use only identical replacement parts. Use of
any other parts may create a hazard or cause product damage.
To ensure safety and reliability, all repairs should be performed
by a qualified service technician.
Figure 19-b (Top View with workpiece)
Always use a scrap piece of wood to test the setup.
• If the scrap is fed past the bit and it runs into the leading end
of the outfeed fence face, the fence is too far forward and
not enough material is being removed. Move the fence back
a little.
• If there is snipe at the trailing edge of the scrap, the fence is
too far back and too much material is being removed. Move
the fence forward.
