SETUP
Workpiece and Work Area Set Up
1. Designate a work area that is clean and well-lit.
The work area must not allow access by children
or pets to prevent distraction and injury.
2. Route the power cord along a safe route to reach
the work area without creating a tripping hazard or
exposing the power cord to possible damage. The
power cord must reach the work area with enough
extra length to allow free movement while working.
3. Secure loose workpieces using a vise or clamps
(not included) to prevent movement while working.
4. Make sure there are no metal objects in the wood
which might make contact with the router bit.
5. Hold Router handles firmly with both hands.
6. Always hold the Router from the front, ensuring that
the Chip Shield (70) is between you and the bit.
7. Keep hands away from rotating bit. Unplug
the tool and wait until the bit stops rotating
completely before making adjustments.
8. Do not touch the bit right after
cutting. It becomes very hot.
9. Before cutting material, turn the Router on.
Watch and feel for vibration which could
indicate an improperly installed bit.
10. Turn the Router off when not actually
cutting. Do not leave running.
General Operating Instructions
Note:
Use two or more passes for deep cuts,
Use two or more passes for deep cuts,
especially in the case of hardwood. Do not attempt to
cut deeper than 5/8” in a single pass. Turn the Depth
Stop Turret (67) so that the first pass will be less than
5/8” deep, then rotate the Turret one step for each
progressive pass, until the final depth is achieved.
cAUTION:
When first turning on the Router,
When first turning on the Router,
grip the Handles firmly as the tool may try
to twist from the strong initial torque.
Note:
The Router bit should always be fed into
The Router bit should always be fed into
the stock from left to right so as to match the
clockwise rotation of the router. When cutting
outside edges, rotate the router counterclockwise.
Rotate it clockwise when cutting inside edges.
Note:
Make practice cuts at different speeds in
Make practice cuts at different speeds in
scrap material until you are able to produce a
smooth cut with no burnishing or burn marks.
Burn marks are caused by moving too slowly
through the wood. Feeding the Router too quickly, or
trying to remove too much material in a single pass
creates a rough cut and can overload the motor.
1. Set the desired speed by turning the Speed
Adjuster (4). Use lower settings for large diameter
bits and higher settings for small diameter bits.
2. Place the Router directly above the point
you plan to cut. Verify that there are no
obstructions in the cutting path.
3. Verify that the Plunge Lock Lever (32) is loose.
4. Make sure that the Trigger is in the
off-
off
off position, then plug in the tool.
5. Turn on the Router. The Router can be powered
with or without the Lock-on Button engaged.
• To power the Router so that the power is on
only while the Trigger Switch is depressed:
depress and hold in the Trigger Switch (60).
To stop the Router from this setting,
release the Trigger Switch.
• To power the Router continuously, without holding
in any buttons or switches, depress and hold in
the Trigger Switch (60), then push the Lock-on
Button. Release the Trigger Switch, then the
Lock-on Button. To stop the Router from this
setting, press and release the Trigger Switch.
6. Allow the bit to come to full speed,
slowly engage material. DO NOT force
the Router down into the material.
7. When the tool reaches its pre-set depth,
tighten the Plunge Lock Lever (32).
8. Once you have finished the cut, loosen the
Plunge Lock Lever and allow the spring to lift
the Router directly out of the workpiece.
9. When finished, raise the Router so the bit is clear
of the material, then release the Trigger Switch,
or press and release the Trigger Switch if the
Lock-on Button was set. Do not set the Router
down until the bit has come to a complete stop.
10. When making more than one pass to achieve the
desired cutting depth, turn the Depth Stop Turret
to the next lower level and repeat the cut. Repeat
again as needed until the cut is the desired depth.
11. To prevent accidents, disconnect the power
supply after use. Clean, then store the
tool indoors out of children’s reach.
