HEAVY-DUTY EDGE GUIDE
The router combo comes with a heavy-duty edge
guide. This edge guide can be used as an aid in
routing applications such as decorative edging,
straight edge planning and trimming, grooving,
dadoing and slotting. To attach the edge guide
to the base, simply insert the edge guide rods
into edge-guide mounting slots, adjust it to the
desired position, and lock down with the edge-
guide locking knobs.
LED WORK LIGHTS
The router motor has 3 built-in worklights lo-
cated around the collet;
these provide high
visibility of the work-
piece when cutting.
These lights are always
“ON” when the toggle
switch is in the “on”
position.
SELECTING THE CUTTING BIT
This router comes with 1/4 inch, collet/nut that
accept 1/4 inch diameter shanked cutting bits
NOTE: the sub-base installed on this router has
an opening of 1-1/4 inches. To use cutting bits
with a larger diameter, use a sub-base with a
larger opening.
WARNING: when using router cutting bits
with a cutter diameter larger than 1-1/2 inches,
always have the speed dial set at number 1 or 2.
INSTALLING AND REMOVING THE CUTTING
BIT
INSTALLING THE CUTTING BIT
1. Turn the motor off and unplug the router
from the power source.
2. Remove the motor housing from the plunge
base.
NOTE: See the instructions for removing the mo-
tor housing from the plunge base.
3. Place the router motor upside down on its top
cap with the collet/nut pointing up.
4. Press the spindle-lock button to engage and
lock the spindle shaft and collet/nut.
5. Place the wrench on the collet/nut, and turn
it counter-clockwise to loosen collet/nut slightly
to accept the cutter bit shank.
6. Insert the cutter bit shank into the collet/nut
assembly as far as it will go, then back the shank
out until the cutters are approximately 1/8 to 1/4
inch away from the face of the collet/nut.
7. With the cutter bit inserted and the spindle-
lock button pressed in to engage the shaft,
place the wrench on the collet/nut and turn it
clockwise until the router cutter bit and the col-
let/nut are firmly tightened.
WARNING: Tighten the collet/nut securely to
prevent the cutter bit from slipping. If the col-
let/nut is not securely tightened, the cutter bit
may detach during use, causing serious personal
injury.
NOTE: to ensue proper gripping of cutter bit
shank and minimize run-out, the shank of the
cutter bit must be inserted into the collet/nut at
least 5/8 inch.
CAUTION: To prevent damage to the tool,
do not tighten the collet/nut without a cutter
bit installed.
