5. Cutting
WARNING
●
Wear eye protection when operating this
tool.
●
Keep your hands, face and other body parts
away from the bits and any other rotating
parts, while operating the tool.
(1) As shown in Fig. 15, remove the bit from the
work pieces and press the switch lever up to the
ON position. Do not start cutting operation until
the bit has reached full rotating speed.
Fig. 15
(2) The bit rotates clockwise (arrow direction
indicated on the base). To obtain maximum cutting
e
ff
ectiveness, feed the router in conformance
with the feed directions shown in Fig. 16.
Fig. 16
NOTE
If a worn bit is used to make deep grooves, a
high pitched cutting noise may be produced.
Replacing the worn bit with a new one will
eliminate the high pitched noise.
USING THE OPTIONAL
ACCESSORIES
(1) Dust collector set
Connect the dust collector set cleaner to collect
dust.
For installation methods, please refer to the
handling instructions that came with the set.
(2) Fine adjustment knob
Connect
the
fi
ne adjustment knob to adjust the
depth of cut
fi
nely.
For installation methods, please refer to the
handling instructions that came with the set.
NOTE
○
Moving the tool forward fast may cause a poor
quality of cut, or damage to the bit or motor.
Moving the tool forward too slowly may burn and
mar the cut.
The proper feed rate will depend on the bit size,
the kind of workpiece and depth of cut. Before
beginning the cut on the actual workpiece, it is
advisable to make a sample cut on a piece of
scrap lumber. This will show exactly how the
cut will look as well as enable you to check
dimensions.
○
Abnormalities and overloads will trigger the
overload protector, and stop operation. Remove
the load immediately, and turn the power o
ff
, then
on. The rotation speed should return to normal.
○
Do not use a power generator as the power
source. It may cause the rotation speed to
fl
uctuate.
○
When using the straight guide, be sure to install it
on the right side in the feed direction. This will help
to keep it
fl
ush with the side of the workpiece.
