3. Setting the End Stops (Continued)

4. Setting Template and Backstop

Unlock the two locking knobs (4) see Fig 5 and position the template so that the tips of the fin-

gers sit inside the vertically mounted timber by a minimum of 1/16"(1.5mm) for thin timber and

1/8" (3mm) for thick timber (see Fig 5).

Set the back stop so that the longest travel the cutter can make is twice the thickness of the

vertically mounted drawer side pieces, plus the distance from the centre of the cutter to the edge

of the router base plate that will contact the back stop, less half the diameter of the cutter

(see Fig 5).

Example:- Using an Axminster AW635R router with a base width of 110mm, a drawer

side 15mm thick and the standard cutter supplied with its tip diameter of 14.8mm, the

distance from the tips of the template fingers to the vertical face of the backstop should

be set at (110/2) +(2 x15) – (14.8/2) = 77.6mm.

It is not essential that this setting is exact at this stage as final adjustments can be made later on.

Ensure that the template and back stop stay in parallel with the front edge of the jig during this

setting procedure.
