1. Place the tool on a at surface. Loosen the lock
lever and lower the tool body until the trimmer bit just
touches the at surface. Tighten the lock lever to lock
the tool body.
2. Turn the stopper pole setting nut counterclock-
wise. Lower the stopper pole until it makes contact
with the adjusting hex bolt. Align the depth pointer with
the "0" graduation. The depth of cut is indicated on the
scale by the depth pointer.
3. While pressing the fast-feed button, raise the
stopper pole until the desired depth of cut is obtained.
Minute depth adjustments can be obtained by turning
the adjusting knob (1 mm per turn).
4. By turning the stopper pole setting nut clockwise,
you can fasten the stopper pole rmly.
5. Now, your predetermined depth of cut can be
obtained by loosening the lock lever and then lowering
the tool body until the stopper pole makes contact with
the adjusting bolt of the stopper block.
6. Set the base on the workpiece to be cut without
the trimmer bit making any contact.
7. Turn the tool on and wait until the trimmer bit
attains full speed.
8. Lower the tool body and move the tool forward
over the workpiece surface, keeping the base ush and
advancing smoothly until the cutting is complete.
When doing edge cutting, the workpiece surface
should be on the left side of the trimmer bit in the feed
direction.

direction
When using the straight guide or the trimmer guide,
be sure to keep it on the right side in the feed direc-
tion. This will help to keep it ush with the side of the
workpiece.

NOTE: Moving the tool forward too fast may cause
a poor quality of cut, or damage to the trimmer bit or
motor. Moving the tool forward too slowly may burn
and mar the cut. The proper feed rate will depend on
the bit size, the kind of workpiece and depth of cut.
Before beginning the cut on the actual workpiece, it
is advisable to make a sample cut on a piece of scrap
lumber. This will show exactly how the cut will look as
well as enable you to check dimensions.

3. When cutting, move the tool with the straight guide
ush with the side of the workpiece.
If the distance 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, rmly clamp a
straight board to the workpiece and use it as a guide
against the router base. Feed the tool in the direction of
the arrow.
