If the bit cuts freely and the motor does not slow down, the cutting depth is generally correct. GUIDING THE ROUTER The router can be guided through the work in any of several ways. The method you use depends, of course, on the demands of the particular job and on convenience. For routing operations such as grooving or dadoing, it is often necessary to guide the tool in a line parallel to a straight edge. One method of obtaining a straight cut is to securely clamp a board or other straightedge to the work surface, and guide the edge of the router sub-base along this path (Fig. 14). PR002 STRAIGHT ROUTER GUIDE (Included with PR20EVSK & PR20EVSNK, also available as optional accessory) The router guide is an optional accessory that will guide the router parallel to a straight edge (Fig. 15). The router guide is supplied in two part held together with a bolt, wing nut and washer. It also includes a wing screw and washer to fasten the guide to the router. The guide also features a scale for accurately positioning the edge guide relative to the bit. With the guide installed and adjusted, the router should be fed normally, keeping the guide in contact with the edge of the workpiece at all times. The router guide can also be positioned directly under the router base for operations where a cut is needed close to or at the edge of the work, such as when rounding off deck planks.

When using these bits, neither the roller guide or straight guide is required. When guiding against a laminated surface, use wax or other lubricant and do not apply excess pressure or the piloted end may mar the work. Bearing pilots must be kept clean and free of adhesive or other residue. Router bit bearings are sealed and permanently lubricated, and should be replaced when they no longer turn freely to avoid damaging the work surface. PR003 ROLLER/BUSHING GUIDE (Included with PR20EVSNK, also available as optional accessory) The optional PR003 Roller/Bushing Guide is used when edge-forming or trimming with unpiloted bits, non-bearing bits. Attachment of Roller/Bushing Guide The PR003 roller/bushing guide (Fig. 17) is attached using the wing screw and washer. Adjustment of Roller/Bushing Guide Vertical Adjustment: 1. Loosen the wing screw and adjust up or down as necessary to allow roller/bushing to ride on the intended guiding surface. 2. Tighten wing screw. Horizontal Adjustment: Whether making straight or bevel cuts, the width of material removed is determined by the distance between the front of the router bit’s cutter and the front of the roller/bushing. Adjust the front of the roller/bushing as follows: 1. Loosen wing nut at bottom. 2. Rotate the wing nut on the back of the guide to move the roller/bushing in or out to create amount of cutter exposure needed to trim the laminate flush with the guiding surface or to create the desired bevel. 3. Be sure the bit clears the top of the roller/bushing guide by at least 1/8" (3 mm) to avoid damage. 4. Tighten wing nut on the bottom of the guide assembly FIG. 16 FIG. 17 5. Make a trial cut to check the setting and readjust as necessary. Use of the Roller/Bushing Guide 1. With the guide installed and adjusted, the router should be fed normally, keeping the guide in contact with the edge of the workpiece at all times. 2. To maintain a consistent width of cut, a consistent angle must be maintained between the router and the workpiece. -13 BM 2609140437 05-06 5/23/06 3:15 PM Page 14 PR009 AND PR010 ROUND SUBBASES & USE OF TEMPLET GUIDE BUSHINGS (Available as optional accessories) Optional large round subbases are available separately and allow various templet guide bushings to be used with the palm routers. Templet guide bushings are used to guide the router to repeated make consistent openings and inlays using various templets (also referred to as patterns and jigs). Templets for standard routing applications are available commercially, such as the Bosch hinge templet kit; and templets for specialty applications are typically made by users for their specific needs. The PR009 Round Subbase accepts the Bosch RA-Series Templet Guide Adapters.* The PR010 Round Subbase accepts threaded templet guide adapters *Note: The RA1100 Adapter for Threaded Templets allows use of conventional threaded templet guides with the PR009 Round Subbase. PR009 Attachment of Templet Guide and Round Subbase (Fig. 18) 1. Remove regular subbase. 2. Insert templet guide into top of round subbase such that the anti-rotation stops in the subbase fit into the corresponding places in the templet guide. (When using the RA1100 adapter, first place the rubber O-ring between the anti-rotation stops and the subbase.) (Fig. 19). 3. Loosely...
