PRIOR TO OPERATION
1. Power source
Ensure that the power source to be utilized conforms
to the power requirements speci
fi
ed on the product
nameplate.
2. Power switch
Ensure that the power switch is in the OFF position. If the
plug is connected to a receptacle while the power switch
is in the ON position, the power tool will start operating
immediately, which could cause a serious accident.
3. Extension cord
When the work area is removed from the power source,
use an extension cord of su
ffi
cient thickness and rated
capacity. The extension cord should be kept as short as
practicable.
4. RCD
The use of a residual current device with a rated residual
current of 30 mA or less at all times is recommended.
INSTALLING AND REMOVING BITS
WARNING
Be sure to switch power OFF and disconnect the plug
from the receptacle to avoid serious trouble.
1. Installing bits
(1) Clean and insert shank of bit into the collet chuck until
shank bottoms, then back it out approximately 2 mm.
(2) With the bit inserted and pressing the lock pin holding
the armature shaft, use the 23 mm wrench to
fi
rmly
tighten the collet chunk in a clockwise direction (viewed
from under the router). (
Fig. 1
)
CAUTION
○
Ensure that the collet chuck is
fi
rmly tightened after
inserting a bit. Failure to do so will result in damage to
the collet chuck.
○
Ensure that the lock pin is not inserted into the armature
shaft after tightening the collet chuck. Failure to do so
will result in damage to the collet chuck, lock pin and
armature shaft.
(3) When using the 8 mm diameter shank bit, replace the
equipped collet chuck with the one for 8 mm diameter
shank bit which is provided as the standard accessory.
2. Removing Bits
When removing the bits, do so by following the steps for
installing bits in reverse order. (
Fig. 2
)
CAUTION
Ensure that the lock pin is not inserted into the armature
shaft after tightening the collet chuck. Failure to do so
will result in damage to the collet chuck, lock pin and
armature shaft.
HOW TO USE THE ROUTER
1. Adjusting depth of cut (Fig. 3)
(1) Place the tool on a
fl
at wood surface.
(2) Turn the quick adjustment lever in a counterclockwise
direction until the quick adjustment lever stops. (
Fig. 4
)
(3) Turn the stopper block so that section to which the cutting
depth setting screw on a stopper block is not attached
comes to the bottom of the stopper pole. Loosen pole
lock knob allowing the stopper pole to contact with
stopper block.
(4) Loosen the lock lever and press the tool body until the bit
just touches the
fl
at surface. Tighten the lock lever at this
point. (
Fig. 5
)
(5) Tighten pole lock knob. Align the depth indicator with the
“0” graduation of scale.
(6) Loosen pole lock knob, and raise until indicator aligns
with the graduation representing the desired cutting
depth. Tighten pole lock knob.
(7) Loosen the lock lever and press the tool body down until
the stopper block to obtain the desired cutting depth.
Your router allows you to
fi
nely adjust depth of cut.
(1) Attach knob to
fi
ne adjustment knob. (
Fig. 6
)
(2) Turn the quick adjustment lever in a clockwise direction
until the quick adjustment lever stops with the stopper
screw. (
Fig. 7
)
If the quick adjustment lever does not stop with the
stopper screw, the bolt screw is not properly
fi
tted.
If this occurs, slightly loosen the lock lever and press
down on the unit (router) hard from the top and turn the
quick adjustment lever again after properly
fi
tting the bolt
screw.
(3) The depth of cut can be adjusted when the lock lever is
loosened, by turning the
fi
ne adjustment knob. Turning
the
fi
ne adjustment knob counterclockwise results in
shallower cut, whereas turning it clockwise results in a
deeper cut.
CAUTION
Ensure that the lock lever is tightened after
fi
nely
adjusting depth of cut. Failure to do so will result in
damage to the quick adjustment lever.
2. Stopper block (Fig. 8)
The 2 cut-depth setting screws attached to the stopper
block can be adjusted to simultaneously set 3 di
ff
erent
cutting depth. Use a wrench to tighten the nuts so that
the cut-depth setting screws do not come loose at this
time.
3. Guiding the router
WARNING
Be sure to switch power OFF and disconnect the plug
from the receptacle to avoid serious trouble.
(1) Template guide adapter
Loosen the 2 template guide adapter screws, so that the
template guide adapter can be moved. (
Fig. 9
)
Insert the centering gauge through the hole in the
template guide adapter and into the collet chuck.
(
Fig. 10
)
Tighten the collet chuck by hand.
Tighten the template guide adapter screws, and pull out
the centering gauge.
(2) Template guide
Use the template guide when employing a template
for producing a large quantity of identically shaped
products. (
