Release the plunge lock lever and rotate the
round depth stop turret to the highest of the
three pegs. Your first routing pass will
remove approximately
of cut. Rotate the turret to the next highest
peg and perform the second routing pass.
This pass will remove the next
material. Finally, turn the turret to the small-
est peg (Figure 10) and perform the third
routing pass. This will complete the routing
operation to the final desired depth of cut.
By performing your routing operations in three
successive passes, you will get smoother results
with less chance of "chip out" and burning of the
workpiece. You will also reduce the possibility of
the router jerking out of your hands from trying to
remove too much material in one pass.
