MICRO-ADJUSTMENTS WITH
THE DEPTH-STOP ROD AND
DEPTH-STOP TURRET
The depth-stop rod has a micro-adjustment
knob that turns a screw (inside the rod) either
clockwise or counterclockwise to lower or
raise the depth-stop rod on the turret for
micro-fine adjustments of the plunge depth.
Each complete revolution of the micro-
adjustment knob adjusts the plunging depth
by approximately 1/32”.
A reference indicator line is marked into the
depth-stop rod under the fine-adjustment
knob to set a reference point of “0”.
When adjusting the plunge depth, always
make sure that the micro-adjustment knob
has been turned down (clockwise) several
revolutions from the top before setting the
depth-stop rod and depth-stop turret.
Always set your micro-adjustments with the
plunge action locked in the raised (or up)
position.
To use the micro-adjustment knob after the
depth rod and turret have been set, check
the final depth setting and micro-adjust as
follows:
• To micro-increase the plunge depth,
raise the micro-adjustment screw by
turning the knob counterclockwise the
desired amount.
• To micro-reduce the plunge depth,
lower the micro-adjustment screw by
turning the knob clockwise the desired
amount.

FIG. 14
Your router motor is turned “ON” and “OFF”
with the toggle switch located on the top
cap of the motor housing.
The left side of the toggle switch hood (as
you face it) is marked “I” and “ON” and the
right side (as you face it) is marked “O” and
“OFF.”
• To turn the motor “ON”, push the toggle
switch to the left side marked “I” and
“ON.”
• To turn the motor “OFF” push the
toggle switch to the right side marked
“O” and “OFF.”
Always hold the router and the cutter bit
away from the workpiece when turning
the toggle switch “On.” Only contact the
workpiece with the router and cutter bit
after the router has reached the full selected
speed. Only remove the router and cutter bit
from the workpiece after turning the router
motor “OFF” and after the cutter bit comes
to a complete stop.
SOFT START FEATURE
The soft start control minimizes torque
twist, customary in larger router motors, by
limiting the speed at which the motor starts.
This increases the motor’s life.
