Ileight as d_,scribed before. Tightenboth large knobs to lock fence
on table. Tightly securethe router,(MAKE SUREROUTERtS
UNPLUGGED WHENMAKINGADJUSTMENTS,)
3. Testcut a piece of scrap wood to make sure your adjuslments
are satisfactory.
NOTE:Feedwork in the direction of arrow shown on label on
frontside of unitizedfence (when facing tablefront),
4, The router table is now readyfor use,
Rememberthe following when bits with pilots are usedto control
the cutting depth:
1. Position the jointing fence in the same manner as with non-
piloted bits.
2, Move the unitized fence back only enough to permit the pilot to
control the cutting depth. Positioningthe unitized fence as close to
the pilot as possible will serve as a back-up and will help in
avoidingan accidentand possiblepersonalinjury, See Fig. #!9.
NOTE:if you havepurchasedRAILAND STILECUTFERS
(Craftsman-_ 21257 or _21259) for making cabinet door frames on
your router table, MAKESURETHATFRAMETHICKNESS is not
more than _". II frame thicknessis more than _", the top of i[f_e bit,
as shown in Fig. 20, will interferewith retractableguard on your
unitizedfence, SeeFig. #20 and Fig. #16,
When routing on endsof workpiecefor making tenons,sliding
dovetailsand tongue and groove joints, the workpiecemust be
madesmooth with both edgesand ends madetrue to eachother
and its surfaces. (90°)
NOTE: Thepush block and clamp plate assemblywilt not
accommodateworkpiecewider than 4".
EXAMPLE: CUTTING TENONS
1. Make certain that jointing fence is locked in position with its
face flush with that of unitizedfence.
2. Mount push block assembly on unitizedfence as shown before
in Fig. #8.
3. Install proper table insert into the table top hole,
4, Mark lines 'A' and 'B' on the edgeof the workpiece closest to
the end to be cut. Line 'A' for FULLDEPTHOFCUT (total amount
of materialyou want to remove) and line 'B' for FULLOEStRED
HEIGHT OFTENON.SeeFig. #2t.
