Adjusting the depth of cut (fig. A)
Your router is equipped with a high precision depth
adjustment system including a revolver depth stop
(20), a measuring lens (12) and fine adjuster (17).
Quick adjustment (fig. A & D)
• Loosen the plunge lock (14) by pulling it up.
• Lower the router carriage until the cutter is in
contact with the workpiece.
• Tighten the plunge lock (14) by pushing it down.
• For optimum ease of operation, the carriage
return can be adapted to the required depth of
cut by rotating or sliding the knurled nut (9).
• Loosen the clamping screw (15).
• Rotate the handwheel (11) until the fine adjuster
(17) touches the revolver depth stop (20).
