The Accu-Stop
TM
Micro-Adjustable Depth Stop
System provides for depth of cut changes to be made
from 0 to 112 in. from the initial setting of the stop bar.
This initial setting of the stop bar can be "zero" depth
of cut, or it can be any depth of cut setting that you
choose as a starting point for a particular job to be
performed.
TO SET DEPTH STOP SETTINGS
• Unplug your router.
_, WARNING: Failure to unplug your router could
result in accidental starting causing serious
injury.
• Loosen lock knob and raise stop bar.
• Rotate depth stop until the highest depth stop is
aligned with the stop bar.
• Raise cutter by depressing plunge lock release.
• Place router on flat surface, and lower router until
tip of cutter barely touches flat surface.
• Release plunge lock release to lock cutter at "zero"
depth of cut.
• Lower stop bar against depth stop, then tighten lock
knob securely. The highest stop now becomes the
"zero" depth of cut setting.

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 the
zero reset indicator up or down the scale the distance
required for new depth of cut. Then change stop bar
position by loosening lock knob and adjusting stop bar
until red line on zero reset indicator moves back to
reference 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
1/16 inch change in depth setting while each mark on
the metric scale equals a 1 mm change in depth
setting; depth control knob should be used for making
precise adjustments to depth of cut.
