How to Use

The Basic Binding Router Guide fits onto the end of a rotary tool. Simply unscrew the plastic tip from the rotary tool and screw it on. It should be used with our 5/16" diameter carbide-tipped Binding Router Bit.

The depth of the cut need to be set to match the binding you are using. This is adjusted by adjusting the depth of the bit in the chuck. It may take a few adjustments to get this depth exactly right.

The width of the cut is set using the thumbscrew adjustment. Use a piece of the binding to set this adjustment.

When routing the instrument use slow and controlled passes. If you are routing a very wide trench it is advisable to set the width shallower to start with and do the rout in two or more passes.
