How to use

Mount the straight bit securely in the router collet according to the router manufacturer’s instructions, ensuring the correct collet size and tightness. Set the router speed and make test cuts in scrap material to verify depth and feed rate. Feed the workpiece or router steadily to create grooves, slots, rebates or joints, keeping hands clear of the cutter and using appropriate clamps and guards.

Recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment (eye and hearing protection), work at recommended router speeds for the material, and make multiple shallow passes rather than one deep cut to prolong bit life and improve finish quality.
