Grizzly C1711 User guide

Step 1 – Vertical Cut

It is recommended that an auxiliary
fence be used to help support the work­piece during the routing process.

Adjust the router bit in the router table
until the center of the lock notch­es are roughly half the height of
your material off the surface of
the router table. Determine
which side of your material you
want on the inside and what you

want on the outside of your 90°
joint and place the inside surface against the fence. Adjust the
fence so the bit’s cutting height matches the thickness of the material
you are cutting. Use a length of scrap lumber to make a test cut.

Step 2 – Horizontal Cut

INSTRUCTIONS FOR

C1711 AND C1712 CORNER LOCK MITER BIT

The Model C1711 and C1712 Corner Lock Miter Bits offer a convenient method for creating a tight-locking,
easily glued 90° corner joint in materials ranging from

1

⁄2" to 9⁄16" wide. The large cutting surface and cutter
diameter require a moderate degree of power and control. We recommend using this bit in a router table, with
a router rated at 1

1

⁄4 horsepower or larger, particularly when used with hardwoods and thicker materials.

relate to this particular router bit. Apply all safety rules and measures pertaining to router operations and your

PUSH BLOCK

Place another test board flat against the router table and make another test cut, as shown in the figure to the
right. Place the two cuts together and adjust bit height and fence location
until your test joints fit smoothly and precisely. Once you are satisfied with
your test results, make your cuts with your actual project materials.
