Festool UP-OF Edging Plate for OF 900 / OF 1000 / OF 1010 / OF 1010 R / KF Routers

At a Glance: Large-support edging plate for compatible Festool routers, designed to provide stable machine guidance when flush trimming projecting solid-wood edges. Used together with the Festool WA-OF angle arm for precise routing-depth adjustment and controlled flush-trimming work.

Achieve controlled, accurate flush trimming of projecting solid-wood edges with the Festool UP-OF edging plate. Designed for compatible Festool OF 900, OF 1000, OF 1010, OF 1010 R and KF routers, the UP-OF provides a large supporting surface that allows the router to be guided securely along the workpiece. This increased support is particularly valuable when the machine is used in an orientation where a conventional router base would provide insufficient contact with the workpiece. When combined with the separately available Festool WA-OF angle arm, the routing depth can be adjusted precisely, creating a purpose-designed setup for flush trimming projecting solid-wood edging. The combination gives the user better control of the router, accurate cutter positioning and a stable reference surface for clean, repeatable edge finishing in cabinetry, furniture making and professional joinery.

A stable support surface for precision edge trimming

The UP-OF edging plate increases the surface area supporting the router against the workpiece. This helps keep the machine stable and correctly positioned while the cutter follows a projecting edge. Used together with the WA-OF angle arm, it creates a controlled system for setting the cutter accurately to the finished surface and trimming excess solid-wood edging flush.

Product highlights

What is the UP-OF edging plate?

The UP-OF is a router support accessory that provides a substantially larger bearing surface when carrying out specialised edge-trimming operations. Rather than relying only on the normal base of the router, the edging plate creates an extended reference surface that helps the operator guide the machine securely along the workpiece.

What is the UP-OF designed to do?

Its principal application is the flush trimming of projecting solid-wood edges. Solid timber edging is often deliberately fitted slightly proud of a panel surface and then trimmed after bonding. The UP-OF and WA-OF combination allows the router to follow the panel while the cutter removes the projecting material.

Why is the large support surface important?

Routing accurately near the edge of a panel can be difficult if too little of the router base is supported. The larger contact area provided by the UP-OF improves stability, reducing the tendency of the machine to tilt and helping the cutter remain correctly positioned relative to the finished surface.

What does the WA-OF angle arm do?

The WA-OF angle arm works together with the edging plate and provides the adjustable connection required for the trimming setup. Festool specifically uses this combination so the routing depth can be set precisely and the cutter can be positioned correctly for flush trimming.

Why are both the UP-OF and WA-OF required?

The two accessories perform complementary functions. The UP-OF provides the large guiding and supporting surface, while the WA-OF provides the adjustable mounting arrangement. Together they form the Festool system for flush trimming projecting solid-wood edge material with compatible routers.

What is flush trimming?

Flush trimming means removing material that projects beyond an adjoining finished surface until both surfaces are level. In furniture and cabinet construction, a solid-wood strip may be bonded to the edge of a panel slightly oversized. Once secure, the excess is routed away until the timber edging is flush with the panel face.

Why use solid-wood edging?

Solid-wood edging can provide a durable, attractive edge on panel products while also allowing the edge to be profiled or finished like solid timber. Accurate flush trimming is an important step because the applied edging must meet the panel cleanly without a noticeable step between the two surfaces.

More control means less corrective work

The closer the initial routing operation comes to the desired finished surface, the less sanding or hand-finishing is required afterwards. Stable guidance and accurate depth adjustment therefore improve both productivity and the quality of the completed edge.

Pro Tips

Use the UP-OF together with the WA-OF angle arm; the edging plate is not intended to perform the complete flush-trimming setup by itself.
Make the final depth adjustment carefully so the cutter removes the projecting edge material without cutting into the finished panel surface.
Test the setup on scrap material or an inconspicuous section before trimming a visible finished edge.
Keep the bearing surface of the UP-OF clean so chips or debris cannot affect the reference height while routing.
Make smooth, controlled passes rather than forcing the router through excessive material in one pass.
If the edging projects significantly, remove the excess in stages before making the final flush-trimming pass.
Choose a sharp router cutter suitable for the timber and direction of cut to minimise tearing at the edge.
Pay particular attention to grain direction near the ends of solid-wood edging to reduce the possibility of breakout.
Connect suitable dust extraction to the router wherever possible for a cleaner working area and improved visibility.

How to Use

Switch off the router and disconnect it from the power supply before fitting accessories or making adjustments.
Confirm that the router model is compatible with the Festool UP-OF edging plate and WA-OF angle arm.
Fit the WA-OF angle arm to the router according to the Festool operating instructions.
Attach the UP-OF edging plate securely to the WA-OF setup.
Install the appropriate router cutter for the edge-trimming operation.
Position the assembly against the workpiece so the large UP-OF supporting surface rests securely on the reference surface.
Adjust the routing depth carefully using the WA-OF until the cutter is positioned to trim the projecting edge flush with the finished surface.
Lock all adjustments securely before starting the router.
Connect suitable dust extraction where applicable.
Start the router and allow it to reach operating speed before bringing the cutter into the workpiece.
Guide the router smoothly along the edge while keeping the UP-OF support surface firmly and evenly against the workpiece.
Inspect the result regularly and make only small adjustment corrections if necessary.
For heavily projecting edging, make more than one controlled pass rather than attempting to remove excessive material at once.
After completing the work, allow the cutter to stop completely before placing the router down or making further adjustments.
