WARNING: DO NOT SET DEPTH OF CUT
MORE THAN 3/8" (FIG. #26). IF
DEPTH OF CUT IS MORE THAN
3/8", THE EDGE 'E' OF WORK-
PIECE WHEN SLIDING ACROSS
WILL INTERFERE WITH PORTION
'P' OF GUARD. THE GUARD THEN
WILL NOT RETRACT INSIDE
FENCE AND HENCE YOU WILL
NOT BE ABLE TO SLIDE WORK-
PIECE ACROSS THE BIT TO MAKE
THE CUT. SEE FIG. #27.
Fig. #26
5. Position workpiece between clamp plate and push
block such that its side is held flush against face
of the unitized fence, the end to be cut is resting
on the edge of the table top hole and edge marked
with lines 'A' and 'B' is facing the router bit. Clamp
workpiece in this position by snugly tightening the
wing nut on clamp rod while making sure that
clamp plate stays oriented on workpiece as shown
in Fig. #25. (This will retract guard inside the fence
and provide access to the bit for making adjust-
ments. MAKE SURE ROUTER IS UNPLUGGED
WHEN POSITIONING AND CLAMPING WORK-
PIECE AND MAKING ADJUSTMENTS).

AT SAFE DISTANCE ABOVE GUARD AND SPIN-
NING BIT, feed workpiece across the bit to make
FULL DEPTH OF CUT IN ONE PASS. (DO NOT
STOP FEED UNTIL WORKPIECE IS FAR
ENOUGH BEYOND SPINNING BIT TO ALLOW
GUARD TO RETRACT OUT FULLY TO ITS NOR-
MAL POSITION).
NOTE: Clamp and test cut a piece of scrap wood
to check your adjustments before making
your finished cut.
9. Turn router and shop vac 'OFF'. Unclamp work-

piece in position and end to be cut is resting on the
edge of table top hole). Repeat steps #7, #8, and
#9.
11. To cut ends of the tenon., position and clamp work-
piece in the same manner as in step #5 above
except edge of workpiece should be held flush
against face of fence and end to be cut should be
resting on edge of table top hole. See Fig. #28.
Repeat steps #7, #8, #9, and #10.
