1. Zkontrolujte bit: Before installation, visually inspect the ROCKLER dovetail router bit for any manufacturing defects, damage, or excessive wear. Ensure the carbide cutters are sharp and free of chips.
2. Prepare Router: Ensure your router is unplugged from the power source. Clean the router collet and collet nut to remove any dust or debris that could affect bit seating.
3. Instalační bit: Insert the 1/2 inch shank of the dovetail router bit into the router collet. For optimal grip and to prevent bit slippage, insert the shank as far as it will go, then pull it out approximately 1/16 to 1/8 inch before tightening the collet nut securely with the appropriate wrenches. Do not overtighten.

Návod k obsluze

This section outlines general operating procedures for using the ROCKLER dovetail router bit. Always consult your router and dovetail jig manuals for specific operational guidelines.

1. Příprava obrobku: Ensure your workpieces are properly dimensioned, square, and free of defects. Mark your joint locations clearly.
2. Zajištění obrobku: Pevně ​​třamp the workpiece(s) into your Porter-Cable 4210 or 4212 Dovetail Jig according to its instructions. Ensure there is no movement possible during the routing process.
3. Router Speed: Set your router to an appropriate speed for the material being cut. For larger diameter bits like this 17/32 inch dovetail bit, a medium to lower speed setting is generally recommended to prevent overheating and burning.
4. Technika směrování:
   • Engage the router bit with the workpiece, ensuring the guide bushing follows the jig's template accurately.
   • Maintain a steady, controlled feed rate. Avoid forcing the router, as this can lead to poor cut quality, bit damage, and kickback.
   • Allow the bit to cut cleanly. Listen to the sound of the router; a strained sound indicates too fast a feed rate or a dull bit.
   • For through dovetails, route the pins and tails according to your jig's specific instructions.
5. Sběr prachu: Utilize a dust collection system with your router and jig setup to minimize airborne dust and keep the work area clear.
6. Post-Routing: After routing, carefully remove the workpiece from the jig. Inspect the joint for fit and quality. Make any necessary adjustments to your jig or router settings for subsequent cuts.

Údržba

Proper maintenance extends the life and performance of your ROCKLER dovetail router bit.

• Čištění: After each use, clean the bit to remove resin and wood residue. Use a specialized router bit cleaner or a mild solvent. Avoid using wire brushes, which can damage the carbide.
• Inspekce: Regularly inspect the carbide cutting edges for dullness, chips, or cracks. A dull bit will cause burning, tear-out, and increased strain on your router.
• Ostření: Router bits with carbide tips can be professionally sharpened. Do not attempt to sharpen carbide bits yourself unless you have specialized equipment and training, as improper sharpening can ruin the bit.
• Skladování: Store the router bit in its original protective case or a dedicated bit storage tray. This protects the delicate carbide edges from damage and prevents rust. Keep bits in a dry environment.
• Mazání: A light coat of dry lubricant or rust preventative can be applied to the bit body (avoiding the carbide edges) for long-term storage.
