ADJUSTING THE DEPTH OF CUT (see Fig. 3)
WARNING:
Turn the router off and disconnect it from
the power supply.
The depth of cut is the distance between the depth stop bar (8)
and the depth stop turret (7). The depth of cut can be set in two
different ways as follows:
ADJUSTING THE DEPTH OF CUT USING THE SCALE
• Unplug the router.
• Loosen the locking screw (12).
• Pull the plunge lock lever (4) up.
• Lower the router until the router bit touches the workpiece.
• Push the plunge lock lever (4) down.
• Move the pointer to the zero position on the scale (9).
• Add the desired depth of cut to the starting position.
• Move the depth stop bar (8) to the calculated position
on the scale.
• Tighten the locking screw (12).
• Fine adjust using the adjusting knob.
• Pull the plunge lock lever (4) up and let the router
return to its original position.
• Switch the router on, then lower the unit to make
the desired cut.
WARNING:
To prevent personal injury, always discon-
nect the plug from the power source before assembly,
adjustment or changing of bits. Failure to comply with
these instructions could result in accidental start-up
and possible injury.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of injury, do not over-
load the tool. Let it work at its own pace. Guide the
cord carefully to avoid accidentally cutting it.
