Routing Template Mfs700

Extra Information

• The MFS 700 is intended for use with routers fitted with copying rings.
• The template supports rectangular cut-outs up to 600 x 300 mm.
• Curved cut-outs can be routed up to a maximum of Ø 1200 mm.
• The technical curve range is listed as 40.00 - 600.00 mm.
• The tilt protection can be used with copying rings of 24 mm, 27 mm, 30 mm and 40 mm diameter.
• When calculating the actual template setting, allow for the difference between the copying ring diameter and the cutter diameter.

Features

• For routers with copying rings: Designed for guided routing when used with a compatible copying ring setup.
• Millimetre scale on the profiles: Allows accurate adjustment when setting up cut-outs and curves.
• Angle stops: Helps align the template exactly to the workpiece or move it in a parallel manner.
• Integrated clamping grooves: Allows quick template fixing to the workpiece with suitable clamps.
• Circle routing insert: Supports controlled circle routing for larger curved cut-outs.
• Tilt protection: Helps compensate for height differences when routing larger surface areas, supporting steadier router guidance.
• Modular profile construction: Profiles can be assembled and adjusted to suit the routing task.

Benefits

• More accurate routing: The adjustable scale system helps reduce guesswork when setting out openings and cut-outs.
• Cleaner repeat work: Useful for applications where multiple similar cut-outs need to be made accurately.
• Improved control: The router follows the template, helping the user achieve smoother and more consistent results.
• Versatile workshop use: Suitable for rectangular cut-outs, curved work and circle routing applications.
• Faster setup: Angle stops and clamping grooves make alignment and fixing easier on the workpiece.
• Safer guided routing: A properly secured template improves control and reduces freehand routing risk.

Application

• Routing rectangular cut-outs in timber, panels and boards
• Routing curved cut-outs and circular shapes
• Creating recesses, openings and guided router work
• Template routing with routers using copying rings
• Aligning and repeating accurate routing setups
• Workshop and site joinery applications
• Furniture, cabinetmaking and installation work

Safety

• Wear eye, ear and dust protection when routing, especially when working with timber, board products or coated materials.
• Read the router operating manual and safety instructions before use.
• Make sure the routing template is securely fixed to the workpiece before starting the router.
• Use the correct copying ring and router cutter combination for the application.
• Check that the cutter does not contact the template before starting the routing pass.
• Keep hands clear of the cutter path and never adjust the template while the router is running.
• Route in controlled passes and avoid forcing the router through the material.
• Use only original Festool spare parts and compatible accessories where required.
