Assembly and adjustment

Also refer to your router manual.

Making a stand for the router (fig. C1 & C2)

It is recommended to make a stand on which you can safely park the router when not in use.

- Make a block of wood (13) sized 300 x 150 x 65 mm.

• Make a hole (14) with a diameter of 50 mm and a depth of 60 mm in the centre of the block.
• Mount the block to the workbench.

Preparing the dovetailing attachment (fig. D1 & D2)

• Use the two M6 screws supplied to mount the dovetailing attachment to the workbench. For this purpose, the base has mounting holes (15).
• Alternatively, clamp the attachment to the workbench using suitable clamps (16).
• Make sure that the front edge of the base of the attachment projects beyond the workbench.
• Slacken the star knobs (17) and remove the template from the attachment.

Adjusting the template bolts (fig. E1 - E6)

The template is held in place with two threaded bolts (18). If the bolts do not fit correctly into the lugs on the attachment, adjust as follows:

• Slacken the nuts (24) using a spanner.
• Place the template onto the attachment. Make sure that the adjustment bushes (19) are in front of the lugs (22) and the star knobs (17) behind the lugs. Insert the bolts correctly into the slots (26).
• Tighten the star knobs (17).
• Securely tighten the nuts (24).

Adjusting the displacement stops (fig. F1 - F4)

The displacement stops can be moved, thus allowing you to determine the position of the dovetails.

For a standard dovetail, proceed as follows:

• Slacken the screw (27) using the 3 mm Allen key.
• Slide the left stop to a suitable position on the left-hand side of the attachment.
• Position the end of the stop pin (29) in the centre of one of the template fingers (30) as shown in fig. F3.
• Tighten the screw (27).
• Proceed as above to set the right stop on the right-hand side of the attachment.

Marking the workpieces (fig. G1 - G3)

- Carefully mark the mating parts of the project as shown in fig. G1.

The mating parts are clamped in the dovetailing attachment in pairs and machined in a single operation. The left and right parts (sides 33, 35, 37, 39) are clamped in the front vice (inside to the front), the front and rear parts (sides 32, 34, 36, 38) in the top vice (inside up).

Sides 32, 33, 34 and 35 are located against the left-hand stop; sides 36, 37, 38 and 39 are located against the right-hand stop.

Clamping the workpieces (fig. H1 - H5)

• Position the parts to be clamped (40 & 41) against the stop (29) as specified above. Use a set square to check that the horizontal part is flush with the top of the vertical part.
• Tighten the locking knobs (5).

If the workpieces are wider than half the working width of the attachment, remove the centre locking knobs.

Mounting and adjusting the dovetailing template (fig. J1 - J7)

• Place the template onto the attachment. Make sure that the adjustment bushes (19) are in front of the lugs and the star knobs (17) behind the lugs.
• The border between the two mating parts should coincide with the marking line (42) on the dovetailing fingers. To adjust, proceed as follows:
• Slacken the Allen screws (20) in the adjustment bushes (19) using the 2 mm Allen key.
• Slacken the locknut (21).
• Move the adjustment bushes (19) as required to obtain the correct setting for the template.
• Tighten the locknut (21).
• Tighten the Allen screws (20) using the 2 mm Allen key.
• Tighten the star knobs (17).

If the workpieces are mounted only on one side of the attachment, use a piece of scrap wood with the same thickness to support the template on the other side.

Preparing the router (fig. K1 - K2)

• Fit the guide bush (43) to the router base using the screws as shown.
• Remove the depth stop and replace it with the fine adjuster (DE6956) (44) available as an option.
• Connect the threaded rod of the fine adjuster to the revolver depth stop.

Mounting and adjusting the cutter (fig. K3 - K5)

- Completely lower the router carriage and lock it in this position.

• Mount the cutter in the collet (45) as described in the router manual.
• Set the screw (47) of the depth gauge (46) to a height of 19 mm. Lock the screw with the wing nut.
• Place the depth gauge with the screw on the cutter as shown (fig. K5).
• Use the fine adjuster of the router to adjust the cutter exactly to the depth gauge.

Instructions for use

Always observe the safety instructions and applicable regulations. Also refer to your router manual.

Dovetailing (fig. L1 - L4)

• Place the router on the fingers of the template.
• Switch the router on.
• Carefully guide the router from right to left along the tops of the fingers.
• Move the router from left to right, inserting it carefully into the fingers until the copying bush is in contact with the edge of the template.

- Never lift the router out of the template; this could result in damage to the template and the cutter.

- When moving the router onto and from the template, make sure that the router is switched off.

Trial cuts

It is recommended always to make a trial cut using pieces of scrap wood in order to check the settings.

• Fit the trial pieces together and check the joint (fig. M).
• If the dovetail joint is too loose, slightly increase the depth adjustment using the fine adjuster.
• If the dovetail joint is too tight, slightly decrease the depth adjustment using the fine adjuster.
• If the dovetail joint is too shallow, move the template slightly backward.
• If the dovetail joint is too deep, move the template slightly forward.

Dovetailing rebated workpieces (fig. N1 - N10)

Workpieces with the rebate (49) at the same side as the dovetail (fig. N1) are routed separately from one another.

• Clamp part (50) in vertical position as described above. To avoid chipping, clamp a piece of scrap wood in horizontal position behind it.
• Install the template and rout the dovetail as described above.
• Remove part (50) and clamp part (51) in horizontal position as described above. Adjust the template so that the rear edge of the rebate coincides with the marking line on the dovetailing fingers.
• Rout the dovetail as described above.

Workpieces with the rebate (53) at a side without a dovetail (fig. N5) are routed in pairs as for normal workpieces. Special stop pins are used to obtain the correct results.

• Replace the normal stop pin (29) (fig. F1) with the rebating pin (54) (fig. N6).

• Loosen the locking bush (55) and set the rebating pin (54) to the correct length.
  The distance from the stop to the end of the rebating pin should equal the depth of the rebate plus one half of the pitch. For example, with a rebate of 10 mm and a pitch of 22 mm, the distance must be set to 21 mm.

• Tighten the locking bush (55).

• Repeat this procedure for the other stop.
  • Proceed as for normal dovetailing.
