Templet guide
The templet guide provides a sleeve through which the
bit passes, allowing use of the trimmer with templet pat-
terns.
Loosen the screws and remove the base protector. Place
the templet guide on the base and replace the base pro-
tector. Then secure the base protector by tightening the
screws.

NOTE:
• The workpiece will be cut a slightly different size
from the templet. Allow for the distance (X) between
the router bit and the outside of the templet guide.
The distance (X) can be calculated by using the fol-
lowing equation:
Distance (X) = (outside diameter of the templet guide -
router bit diameter) / 2

When cutting, move the tool with the straight guide flush
with the side of the workpiece.
If the distance (A) between the side of the workpiece and
the cutting position is too wide for the straight guide, or if
the side of the workpiece is not straight, the straight
guide cannot be used. In this case, firmly clamp a
straight board to the workpiece and use it as a guide
against the trimmer base. Feed the tool in the direction of
the arrow.
