Hand Held Operation

HAND-HELD OPERATION

• Always use both hands to control the router and ensure your

workpiece is securely clamped to prevent any movement during

operation

• Never operate the router freehand

without some form of guidance.

Guidance can be provided by a

bearing guided cutter, the fence

guide supplied or a straight edge

(eg. a batten clamped to your

work as shown above)

• Always feed against the direction

of cutter rotation (clockwise, as

indicated by the arrows

on the router

base)

• Do not operate the

router upside down

unless securely mounted

in a well-guarded router

table (eg. Triton brand)

THE BASE ASSEMBLY

The Extended Baseplate (22)

supplied with the Triton Router

provides greater stability when

using bearing guided cutters along

an edge.

Place one hand on the long end of

the base, holding it down onto your

work, and grip the router handle,

furthest away, with your other hand.

EXTENDED BASEPLATE AND FENCE

1. To ﬁt the extended baseplate (22)

loosen the Mounting Knobs (18)

approximately 10mm (

⁄8") up the

coach bolt

2. Position the extended baseplate

onto the base of the router with

the heads of the coach bolts

beneath the keyhole slots in the

baseplate

NOTE: The router can be mounted

with the long overhang to the left or

to the right depending on where the

support is required. For edge work,

locate the power switch on the short

overhang side of the base

3. Push the Baseplate Mounting

Knobs (18) until the bolt heads

locate into the keyholes, then slide the extended baseplate until

the bolts locate against the ends of the keyhole slots. Tighten

the knobs ﬁrmly. To ﬁt the Fence (19) loosen the fence knobs

a few turns and slide the fence along the tracks on the base.

Lock at the desired setting by tightening both fence knobs

• When routing trenches some

distance in from an edge, ﬁt the

fence to the long end of the base

• When performing edge work with

a non-bearing guided cutter ﬁt

the fence to the short end of the

base.

• If using a very large diameter

cutter it may be necessary to ﬁx wooden blocks to the fence

faces via the screw holes, to ensure the cutter does not contact

the fence

CIRCLE CUTTING

1. Fit the extended base (without

fence) to the router

2. Remove the Pivot Mount (23)

from the base and ﬁx it to the

centre of your work using a small

nail or screw through one of the

holes in the pivot mount. Leave

the pivot mount bolt in position

3. Lower the router and base over

the pivot mount and reﬁt the

washer and wing-nut

4. With the power switched ‘Off’,

rotate the router along the

intended path to check the

circle, and make any necessary

adjustments

5. Cut the circle in several passes,

lowering the cut depth by say

2mm (

⁄13") each pass. Do not

attempt to cut deeply in one pass

• Through cuts: If cutting all the

way through the material, ﬁx a

sacriﬁcial board to the underside

of your workpiece. Cut the circle

oversize, then when the cut is all the way through, reduce the

diameter and work back to the desired size, using light, full

depth passes.
