Manual Dovetail Routing Machine

Transportable and adaptable bench-top machine, to rout a single dovetail slot with each machine cycle for Hoffmann Keys sizes W-0/-1/-2/-3 /-4. The model shown above is the MU3-D.

*(table extensions are an available option)

Function

Position and secure the fence plate and lay the work-piece against it. By drawing down the hand lever, the workpiece is clamped and the motor starts. Continued pressure on the lever raises the router unit through the workpiece and to the pre-set routing depth. When the hand lever is returned to its original position, the motor switches off automatically and the routed work-piece is released.

On the model version MU 3-D (shown above) the routing position, as well as the routing depth are digitally displayed to an accuracy of 1/10th mm.
