Secure the templet to the workpiece. Place the tool on
the templet and move the tool with the templet guide
sliding along the side of the templet.
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 following equation:
Distance (X) = (outside diameter of the templet guide -
router bit diameter) / 2
Straight guide (optional accessory)

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.

straight guide and guide plate.
Min. and max. radius of circles to be cut (distance
between the center of circle and the center of bit) are as
follows:
Min.: 70 mm
Max.: 221 mm
