Dear Customer

Thank you for purchasing this Trend product.

The Combi 1001 is designed to be used with most heavy duty routers. The router should be fitted with a 30mm outside diameter guide bush and a 12.7mm (

/2”) diameter Tungsten Carbide Tipped (TCT) cutter which should have plunge cut facility.

Once the jig has been mastered a typical postform or butt and scribe joint can be made in 15 minutes including setting-up time. Recommended maximum depth of cut is 8mm in one pass.

The jig is designed to cut worktop widths from 450mm to 1000mm. It will also cut a curved peninsular, a 45° end cut, a corner radius and a

22.5° mitre joint.

If after reading these instructions you have any problems please contact our Technical Support Department. For accessories and a copy of the latest Trend Routing Catalogue please contact your nearest Trend stockist.

We hope you enjoy many years of productive use of this product.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

I Always switch off the power and unplug the

router when changing cutters or when making adjustments.

I Always wear protective goggles when routing.

I Wear sound protective ear muffs when routing

for long periods of time.

I Always wear a dust mask or respirator. Use

dust extraction equipment whenever possible.

I Do not wear loose clothing. Make sure baggy

sleeves are rolled up and ties are removed.

I Always remove spanners and hex keys from

the workpiece before switching router on.

I Keep hands well clear of the router cutter

when routing.

I Avoid accidental starting of the router. Make

sure the power switch is in the ‘Off’ position before plugging in and connecting to the electrical supply.

I Never leave the router unattended when

running. Always wait until the router comes to a complete stop before making any adjustments.

I Do not switch the router on with the cutter

touching the workpiece.

I Mount the workpiece securely to a work

bench or to a workboard fitted to a suitable surface.

I Periodically check all nuts and bolts to make

sure they are tight and secure.

Cutter Care

I Do not drop cutters or knock them against

hard objects.

I Cutters should be kept clean. Resin build-up

should be removed at regular intervals with Resin Cleaner

. The use of a dry lubricant

will act as a preventative such as Trendicote

PTFE spray.

I Cutter shanks should be inserted into the

collet at least

/4 of shank length to prevent distortion. A distorted collet should be discarded, as it can cause vibration and damage the shank.

I Do not over-tighten collet as this will score the

shank and create a weakness there.

I It is also advisable to periodically check the

router collet nut for wear.

Useful Advice

I Judge your feed rate by the sound of the

motor. In time, the operator will acquire a ‘feel’ for the router, and a feed speed relative to the work will come naturally. Too slow a feed will result in burning.

I Apply the normal precautions as with any

electric power tool.

I The main abuse of routing machines is the

inclination for operators to overload them. The motto is ‘Keep the revs up’. The drop in revolutions should not exceed, if possible, more than 20% of full running speed.

I The motor of a router is susceptible to the

accumulation of sawdust and wood chips, and should be blown out, or ‘vacuumed’, frequently to prevent interference with normal motor ventilation.

I Refer to the Instruction Manual supplied with

your router for full details of its features and safety information.

I Trial cuts should be made on waste material

before starting any project.

Sub-base Sets

To obtain a perfect accurate close fitting joint, a 30mm guide bush must be used. The guide bush must always be fitted concentric with the cutter. This can be achieved using Trend subbases and 30mm outside diameter guide bush ref. GB30.

Trend sub-bases have a central recess to allow fitting of the Trend guide bush to most makes of routers and are available ready to fit the most popular makes.

Two types are offered GB/5 and UNIBASE.

All sub-bases contain screws, a line-up bush and two line-up pins. The line-up pins and bush ensure exact alignment of sub-base with router spindle, when fitted with the relevant collet.

Panel Butt Connectors

Panel butt connectors are essential for connecting worktops. They fit into the recess on the underside of the worktop and are tightened with a 10mm spanner. The jig has integral bolt recess slots to allow the bolt recess to be cut in the underside of the worktop, using the cutter. The recess is elongated to allow easy access for the spanner. Two types are offered, plastic ended or metal ended. Plastic ended offer better grip.

See the latest Trend Routing Catalogue for details.

ASSEMBLY

Location Bush Identification

Three location bushes are used in different holes in the jig to align the correct template aperture for the application.

The holes are colour coded for easy identification with dots as follows:

Green dot – Female Joint Red dot – Male Joint Blue dot – Mitre Corner Yellow dot – Connector Recess Grey dot – 45° Peninsular White dot – Curved Peninsular Black dot – Corner Radius

The jig has a colour coded key on its label for quick reference.

Setting out the Joints

When cutting a joint ensure location bushes contact the postformed edge of the worktop. For certain joints the worktop will need to be inverted so that all cuts are made into the postformed edge, never out through it. When routing worktops the balancing paper on the underside may feather edge – this feather edge should be removed with abrasive paper.

Location bushes are held in position by ‘O’ rings. Insert the smallest end of the bush into the hole by lightly pushing and turning at the same time. If the bushes are tight use a lubricant on the ‘O’ ring. Ensure bushes are fully home before use. When using the jig ensure location bushes do not foul the workbench.

IMPORTANT! In order to prevent breakout of the laminate, rotation of the cutter and feed direction must always be into the postform edge of the worktop.

Margin Distance

Allow 8.5mm when cutting joints. Measure or use a batten of this thickness to aid setting out.

Length Stop Arrangement

OPERATION

Setting the Length Stop for the Female Cut

Carry out the setting operation first:

I Fit bushes into Green dot location holes

and offer the jig to the worktop as shown. Face marked Green dot must be uppermost.

I Insert location bush in Red dot location

hole as shown, and position the jig across the width of the worktop. Loosely fit the length stop (or adjustable long clamp).

I Fasten length stop (or adjustable long

clamp) to template so that it traps the template across the worktop between the Red dot location bush and the stop (or adjustable long clamp). Tighten up the knob.

I Remove the bush from Red dot location

hole. The template is now set to cut the correct length of joint.

I Some carcasses may have their backs

reduced which means in turn the worktop width will be reduced. Please take this into consideration when setting the length stop.

Female Joint

I Leave the two location bushes in holes

marked Green dot. (The Green dots must be uppermost). Leave the length stop bush in position.

I Place the template onto the worktop to be cut,

ensuring the location bushes are touching the worktop. Now cramp securely in position using two quick action clamps or the accessory clamps ensuring they will not foul the router path.

I Set cutter depth.

I Plunge router and cut joint in a series of

passes, feeding left to right.

IMPORTANT! When cutting a joint, hold the router guide bush hard against the template and cut from left to right. It is recommended that the depth stops of the router are used to set the depths of cut. Several shallow passes of the router should be made and it is not necessary to lean heavily on the router or the jig. Allow the weight of the router to rest on the part of the template which is resting on the worktop. Ensure router remains parallel and upright at all times.

Male Joint

Depending on accessibility lay female worktop into position on units. Lay male worktop on top and support other end. Using a pencil draw round the female cut onto the male. If inaccessible lay female onto male. Depending on a right or left hand joint, the pencil line may need to be transferred on to the other side. Due to the difference between the cutter and the guide bush diameters, the cutter path (or cut line) will be

8.5mm over from the edge of the template,

therefore either measure 8.5mm or use a packing piece of this size to offset the template by this amount to ensure the cutter cuts along the pencil line.

The postformed edge of the worktop must always be in contact with the location bushes, this means that to cut a male right hand joint, the worktop must be inverted. Remembering to cut into the postformed edge.

I Insert two location bushes into holes

marked Red dot. Face marked Red dot must be uppermost.

I Place template across the width of the

worktop and clamp securely.

I Cut the male joint before finally cutting the

worktop to length. All cuts must be fed left to right.

Out-of-square Joints (max. 3°)*

It may not be possible to position all joints at 90°, in this case it is the male part of the joint that has to be adjusted.

The length stop has a mitred end which is used to set up for an out-of-square joint up to 3°.

To mark out an out-of-square joint, first lay the female worktop on the cupboard carcass in its correct position. Next lay the male section of the worktop on the carcass and on top of the female section of the worktop. Support the other end of the male worktop. Using a pencil and from underneath the worktop mark around the female joint onto the male section of the worktop, if access is difficult lay the female worktop onto the male worktop, support other end and mark with pencil from above. This drawn line is the male joint cut line.

Postform edge

*Please Note:

Out-of-square joints are possible, but the finished joint will not be as good as a 90° joint.

I Insert both location bushes into Red dot

holes. Red dot face uppermost.

I Lay jig across the worktop, ensure the

location bushes touch the postform edge. Clamp jig in position with quick action clamps. Draw a line 8.5mm away from the jig slot edge.

I With the mitred end of the length stop

facing towards the back of the worktop, as shown. Fit the length stop onto underside of jig by using the countersunk bolt, washer and knob into one of the holes in the jig. The bolt should be put into the jig from above, do not tighten. Carefully position the point of the length stop so that it lines up with the 8.5mm margin pencil line. When the correct position has been obtained tighten bolt and knob sufficiently to prevent length stop from moving.

I Remove location bushes.

I Lay jig with length stop set onto male work

top that is to be cut. Allowing for the

8.5mm margin and using the length stop as a pivot point (pivot point on cut line) position the jig so the jig slot edge is parallel to the drawn pencil line. Re-check positioning.

I Clamp jig to worktop securely using quick

action clamps.

I Remove length stop and bolt assembly as

these are for setting up only and are not required when routing.

I Set cutter depth.

I Plunge router and cut the male joint,

feeding left to right in a series of shallow passes, feeding left to right.

Cutting the Bolt Recesses

When the joint has been tested, proceed as follows to cut the recess for panel butt connectors on the underside of the worktop. The same cutter and guide bush are retained and used with the integral bolt recess slots in the jig to produce the recesses for the panel butt connectors.

To set the length stop (or adjustable clamp) for both joint recesses, insert a location bush in Blue dot location hole as shown in diagram and lay template across the width of the worktop. The diagram shows for bolt recess in the male joint, Yellow dot holes up. Fit length stop or adjustable clamp as before. Ensure that the stops are against the rear of the worktop and not against the postform edge. Remove setting bush and place template on the underside of the worktop.

Insert the location bushes into the Yellow dot holes as shown.

I The template will need to be inverted

when cutting some bolt recesses.

I Securely clamp jig to worktop.

I The bolt recesses should be

approximately 20mm deep although this will depend upon the thickness of worktop. Set the cutter depth.

I Repeat the set up procedure for the

female joint, however the location bush and length stop (or adjustable clamp) should be fitted on the opposite face of the worktop Yellow dot holes down.

Strengthening the Joint

If the joint between the worktops is not supported underneath, after some time the joint may ‘sag’ and become misaligned; to reduce this the joint should be reinforced with a loose tongue or biscuit dowels. The biscuit jointing cutter set Trend Ref. 342 can be used with a portable router. The size of biscuit used should be No. 20.

Ref. BSC/20/100 (100 biscuits) Ref. BSC/20/1000 (1000 biscuits)

A 650mm worktop should have at least 5 biscuits.

Sealing the Joint

The cut edges of the joint should be coated with a water-resistant adhesive, or sealant before assembly, to prevent moisture seeping into the core of the worktops, which would swell and disfigure the worktop.

Use a fine grit abrasive paper to clean up the torn wood chips of both mating surfaces. Lightly run the abrasive paper along the edges to de-nib the cut chipboard edge. This will ensure a tidy joint is achieved.
