Operation
Adjusting the Depth-of-cut
(see figure F)
f
The adjustment of the depth-of-cut may on-
ly be carried out when the router is
switched off.
For coarse adjustment of the depth-of-cut, pro-
ceed as follows:
– Place the machine with the router bit mount-
ed on the workpiece to be machined.
– Open the clamping lever
10
on the motor unit
if locked.
– Turn the routing base
2
so that the mark
points against the
symbol and slowly
lower the motor unit until the router bit
touches the workpiece.
– Lock the clamping lever.
– Read the measuring value off the scale
8
and
note it down (zeroing). Add the desired
depth-of-cut to this value.
– Open the clamping lever and adjust the mo-
tor unit to the calculated scale value.
– Turn the routing base so that the mark
points against the symbol and lock the
clamping lever again.
– Check the carried out depth-of-cut adjust-
ment with a trial cut and correct it, if neces-
sary.
For fine adjustment of the depth-of-cut, proceed
as follows:
– With the clamping lever
10
open, turn the
routing base so that the mark points
against the symbol.
– Adjust the desired depth-of-cut with thumb-
wheel
3
.
– Lock the clamping lever.
Starting Operation
f
Observe correct mains voltage! The voltage
of the power source must agree with the
voltage specified on the nameplate of the
machine. Power tools marked with 230 V
can also be operated with 220 V.
Switching On and Off
To
start
the machine, set the On/Off switch
11
to
I
.
To
switch off
the machine, set the On/Off
switch
11
to
0
.
Working Advice
f
Protect router bits against shock and im-
pact.
Direction of Feed and Routing Process
(see figure G)
f
The feed motion of the router bit 4 must al-
ways be carried out against the rotation di-
rection of the router bit (up-grinding).
When routing in the rotation direction of the
router bit (down-cutting), the machine can
break loose, eliminating control by the user.
f
Use the machine only with the routing base
2 mounted.
Loss of control over the machine
can cause injuries.
f
Before beginning the routing procedure,
check if the mark on the routing base is
positioned in line with the symbol on the
motor unit 1.
Note:
Take into consideration that the router bit
4
always extends out of the base plate
7
. Do not
damage the template or the workpiece.
– Set the desired depth-of-cut (see “Adjusting
the Depth-of-cut”, page 12).
– Switch the machine on and guide it to the lo-
cation subject to working.
– Carry out the routing process applying uni-
form feed.
– Switch the machine off after finishing the
routing process.
f
Do not place the power tool down until af-
ter the router bit has come to a complete
stop.
Coasting application tools can cause
injuries.
