USING THE STARTER PIN FOR EDGE FORMING OF CURVES
The starter pin (26) is used instead of the fence for
operations that involve routing curves in the workpiece.
It should be used only with bits that have pilot bearings.
Thread the starter pin into the threaded hole in the
mounting plate and tighten securely with a slotted
screwdriver (Fig. 32).
Attach the starter pin guard (27) to the mounting plate
by threading a #10-32 x 3/8" truss-head machine screw
(28) through the hole in the guard post and into the
threaded hole in the mounting plate. Align the guard
with the hole in the mounting plate so it is over the bit,
and securely fasten the guard in place.
• Always use the starter pin guard when routing with
the starter pin.
• When using the starter pin, the feed direction of the
workpiece is always right to left across the front of
the bit (Fig. 33).
• Set the workpiece against the front of the starter pin
and swing it slowly into the bit.
• While routing, make sure the workpiece is always in
contact with the bit's pilot bearing.
The auxiliary guard must be used
for this type of operation. Keep fingers clear of
spinning bit. Do not attempt to route small workpieces.
USING A MITER GAUGE (not supplied)
The aluminum T-slot miter gauge slot may be used with
most stationary table saw miter gauges that measure
3/4" wide x 3/8" deep.
NOTE: For ALL routing operations requiring the use of
the miter gauge with the fence, BE SURE to align the
fence using the scales on the top of the router table
before making any cuts. Miters can be cut by loosening
the knob on the protractor head, turning the protractor
head up to 60° in either direction, and retightening the
protractor head knob.
