• Always feed your work or router in the proper direction against the bit rotation.
• Don't force feed the bit or overload your router, Feed at a constant moving speed to avoid burning the wood.

• Use a router table and fence whenever possible.
• Make sure your work piece is properly secured and use push blocks, sticks and featherboards whenever possible.
