FITTING THE ROUTER AND THE CUTTERS

UNIVERSAL BASE PLATE

ujk-502701-Router-Elevator-07

IN ORDER TO FIT SOME OF THE ROUTERS TO THE ELEVATOR AND ACHIEVE UNRESTRICTED MOVEMENT, IT MAY BE NECESSARY TO REMOVE THE HANDLES; PLUNGE THE ROUTER BODY TO DEPTH, ETC., ETC.

Lower the table to almost its fullest extent. Using the Allen key provided loosen the bolts and therefore the lugs holding the universal mounting plate (UMP) in position and remove. (See Figs 1 and 2). Remove the sole plate from your router, see illustrations 1 to 2 and secure your router to the UMP via the appropriate holes, see pages 8-9. Insert the requisite tool into the router and tighten securely.

Adjust the ‘depth’ of the router to give the slightly more than the required exposure of the tool (to allow for adjustment) and lock the body. Remember that you will loose 14.5mm of the set ‘height’ of the cutter between the lower face of the universal mounting plate and the upper surface of the machine table. Alternatively, current practise would indicate that the router is plunged to maximum depth and all height adjustment is done using the elevator. Refit the mounting plate to the rise and fall platform. (See Fig 3)

Please note: Removing the router handles will prevent them from interfering with the chain.
Re-fasten the holding lugs. If the router tool diameter is greater than 75mm, the router/mounting plate combina-tion must be refitted to the rise and fall platform first, and then the tooling mounted into the router. (Hint. You will find this easier with the rise and fall platform at its highest position and the table insert removed).

NOTE. If you find that some of your cutters are ‘borderline’ for ‘reach’ or the length of shank remaining in the collet is approaching the minimum limit, may we suggest the purchase of the short collet extension Axminster No. 211367. (See Page 4)

NOTE. If you are not using a professional router table with a remote On/Off switching facility, or a Power Tool NVR Switch, remember to orientate the router so that the power switch is easily accessible when the router elevator is fitted to the work platform.
When everything is assembled to your satisfaction. Check the speed setting of the router is correct for the cutter diameter. Give the router a ‘quick burst’ to check that everything is secure. If the ‘quick burst’ check is O.K. Proceed to fit your fencing, dust extraction etc

SETUP/OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Ensure you have identified all the parts of your Router Elevator.
Place the Router Elevator into the prepared recess. (See Fig A on page 05). Check that it is flush with the work platform surface. If this is not the case insert the supplied grub screws in the threaded corner holes and level the machine table. (See Fig 4) If, for some reason, it is impossible to level the table absolutely flush with the work platform, ensure that the ‘front’ of the table is low in the recess, and the ‘rear’ of the table is high to the work surface. (Low and High in this instance refer to the minimal measurements required to ensure that there is no ‘edge’ for the work piece to ‘snag’ on). When you are satisfied with the levelling process you can, if required, fasten the elevator in position with the two M6 bolts supplied or even two Wood Screws. (perhaps an MDF working platform/table?).

MAINTENANCE

The router elevator requires minimum maintenance, but you are advised to observe the following points:-

  1. Keep the elevator clean. Ensure that dust/chips etc., are cleaned away at the end of a work session.
  2. Do not allow a build up of dust/chips etc., between the machine table and the rise and fall platform, or under the machine, where it may foul the chain drive.
  3. If the winding action becomes ‘lumpy’ check that there is no debris caught in the chain, or compressed onto a sprocket.
  4. Check the chain tension. If the chain has become ‘slack’ or loosened, re-tension by adjusting the idler sprocket. Do not over tension, the chain needs to be firm, with a small side to side movement (best checked on a ‘long’ side) it does not need to be rigid. (See Figs 5 and 6)
  5. Remember! A chain is a machine as well, give it a light lube.
