WARNING:
INSTRUCTIONS IN A SAFE PLACE.

The attention of UK users is drawn
to The Provision and Use of Work
Equipment Regulations 1998, and any
subsequent amendments.
Users should also read the HSE/HSC

Safe Use of Woodworking Machinery
Approved Code of Practice and Guidance
Document and any amendments.
Users must be competent with
woodworking equipment before using our
products.
IMPORTANTNOTE:
Residual Risk. Although the safety

instructions and operating manuals for
our tools contain extensive instructions
on safe working with power tools, every
power tool involves a certain residual risk
which cannot be completely excluded
by safety mechanisms. Power tools
must therefore always be operated with
caution!
General
1. Disconnect power tool and
attachment from power supply
when not in use, before servicing,
when making adjustments and
when changing accessories such
as cutters. Ensure switch is in off
position. Always ensure cutter has
stopped rotating.
2. Always mount the power tool,
accessory or attachment in
conformity with the instructions. Only
use attachment and accessories
specified in the power tool manual.
The tool or attachment should not be
modified or used for any application
other than that for which it was
designed. Do not force tool.
3. Keep children and visitors away. Do
not let children or visitors touch the
tool, accessory or attachment. Keep
children and visitors away from work
area. Make the workshop child proof
with padlock and master switch.
4. Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewellery, they can be
caught in moving parts. Rubber
gloves and non-skid footwear
is recommended when working
outdoors. Wear protective hair
7. Keep work area clean. Cluttered

workshops and benches can cause
injuries. Ensure there is sufficient
room to work safely.
20. Stay alert. Watch what you are

doing. Use common sense. Do not
operate tools when you are tired,
under the influence of drugs or
alcohol.

6. Before each use check that the

cutting tool is sharp and free from
damage.Do not use the cutting tool
if it is dull, broken or cracked or if in
any other damage is noticeable or
suspected.
Using Routers In A Fixed Position

1. Attention should be made to the

2. After work, release the router plunge
to protect the cutter.
approximately hip height.

6. Use a No-Volt Release Switch.
Ensure it is fixed securely, easily
accessible and used correctly.
7. In router table (inverted) mode, stand
to the front right of the table. The
cutter will rotate anti-clockwise when
viewed from top so the feed direction
is from the right (against the rotation
of the cutter). In overhead mode,
stand to the front left of the machine
table and the feed direction is from
the left.
8. Do not reach underneath table or
put your hands or fingers at any
time in the cutting path while tool is
connected to a power supply.
9. Never thickness timber between the
back of the cutter and the backfence.
Useful Advice When Routing

1. Judge your feed rate by the sound
of the motor. Feed the router at a
constant feed rate. Too slow a feed
rate will result in burning.
2. Trial cuts should be made on waste
material before starting any project.
3. When using some attachments e.g.
a router table or dovetail jig, a fine
height adjuster is recommended.
4. When using a template guide bush,
ensure there is sufficient clearance
between cutter tip and inside edge
of bush and that it cannot come into
contact with collet and nut. Ensure
cutter and guide bush are concentric.
Router Cutter Repair/Maintenance

1. Repair of tools is only allowed in
accordance with the manufacturers
instructions.
2. The design of composite (tipped)
tools shall not be changed in process
of repair. Composite tools shall be
repaired by a competent person i.e.
a person of training and experience,
who has knowledge of the design
requirements and understands the
levels of safety to be achieved.
3. Repair shall therefore include, e.g.
the use of spare parts which are in
accordance with the specification
of the original parts provided by the
manufacturer.
7. Cutters should be kept clean. Resin

Edge Guide Holes
The edge guides are used
to position the workpiece
within the jig. There are
four holes in each jig.
The CDJ300 has fixed
edge guides, therefore
these will dictate whether
a whole or part pin will be
cut on the workpiece. This
is called the offset.
User made spacers could
be used to pack out from
both edge guides to
equal the joint and give
symmetrical joint.
The distance between U1
and U2 is 9.5mm. This is
for rebated drawer fronts.

Guide Bushes

For other makes and

may be required to allow
the guide bush to be fitted.
The Ref. UNIBASE has
been designed for use
with a variety of routers; it
also ensures concentricity
between cutter and guide

For Trend T3/T4 it is

recommended that the
Ref. UNIBASE is used to
provide greater accuracy
and support to the router

It also ensures that

supplied for certain
template accessories.

Making a Router
Stand Block
As the cutter should not
be retracted into the router
when dovetailing, a useful
aid is a Router Stand
Block.
This is simply a piece of
scrap timber with a hole
large enough to take the
protruding guide bush and
cutter. This will allow the
router to stand up safely
between operations.

TIMBER
PREPARATION
It is important to plan
your work before starting
to save set-up time and
avoid costly mistakes.
Both sides of the jig can
be used to make joints. It
is advisable however to
clamp the workpiece to
one side of the jig. This
ensures it is clamped
securely.

label the pieces as front,
back, and sides. Mark
faces as inside and out.

Before jointing the actual

workpiece make trial cuts
in pieces of waste timber,
the same thickness as
the workpieces in order to
test depth of pin sockets.
Ensure all pieces are cut
to size and checked for
squareness.

For box joints, the waste

For comb and through

OPERATION
Routing the
Workpiece
For Lapped Dovetail
Joints
Make one very light cut from
right to left, cutting only the
front edge. This will prevent
breakout.
Carefully rout from left to right
following the guide bush in
each of the template comb
slots (see illustrations on
right).
For Box Joints

the each of the slots. Ensure
the guide bush is kept against
the left hand side of the
template comb fingers on all
cuts.
Cut full depth in one pass
where possible. If timber
is hard, achieve depth in a
number of passes.
For Dowel Joints

For dowel hole in face of
workpiece, the depth of
cut will be half thickness of
workpiece.
For dowel hole in end of
workpiece, depth will need to
allow for remainder of dowel
length.
For Through
Dovetails

of Cut in the Future
To ease setting up of the

rout another joint and keep
this piece to set the cutter

the each of the template slots.
Cut full depth when using the
dovetail cutter. If timber is
hard take fine cuts.
Preventing Tear Out

This occurs when cutting
across the grain and can be
overcome by scribing the
ends of the timber with a
marking knife or gauge at the
height of the cutter.
Do not lift the router

from the template
with the guide bush
engaged in the slots
as damage to the
template will occur.
