Adjusting the parallel fence ruler
The parallel fence is a useful tool for precision
routing at a fixed distance from the edge of the
workpiece.
Place the desired cutter in the tool. •
Slide the parallel guide with the guide rods into •
the baseplate and tighten at the required
measure with the wing bolts
Mounting the template guide
Fig. C
The template guide is a handy aid for cutting a
pattern.
Mount the template guide (18) on the router •
base (3) using the screws (17).
Mounting the adapter for dust extraction
Fig. B+D
Use the dust adapter for the extraction of dust. In
case the adapter is not mounted on the machine,
follow these instructions.
Mount the dust adapter (13) with the screws •
(17) on the cutter sole (3).
Place the tube of your vacuum cleaner on the •
dust tube (19).
Keep the outlet of the machine behind the
machine for a good view on the
workpiece.
4. Operation
The ON/OFF switch
To switch on the tool, press and hold the on/off •
switch (1).
If you release the on/off switch (1), the tool will •
be switched off.
You can lock the on/off switch by pressing the •
on/off switch (1) and then button (5). The
switch lock can be released by briefly pressing
the on/off switch (1).
Do not put the machine down when the motor •
is still running. Do not place the machine on a
dusty surface. Dust particles may enter the
mechanism.
Usage tips
After switching the machine on, make sure the •
machine reaches full speed before using it on
the workpiece.
Clamp the workpiece and make sure that the •
workpiece cannot slide from under the
machine during the cutting activities.
Hold the machine firmly and move it evenly •
over the workpiece. Do not force the machine.
Only use cutters which do not show any signs •
of wear. Worn cutters have a negative effect
on the efficiency of the machine.
Always switch off the machine first before •
removing the plug from the wall socket.
Speed Preselection
The required speed can be preselected with the
thumbwheel. Also during running the rotational
speed can be adjusted.
1 – 2 = low speed
3 – 4 = medium speed
5 – 6 = high speed
Max = maximum speed
The required speeds depends on the material and
can be determined by practical testing.
Furthermore router bits with a large diameter need
a lower rotational speed.
Material Diameter
Router bit
Speed stages
Hardwood >20 mm 1 – 2
10 – 20 mm 3 – 4
<10 mm 5 – max
Softwood >20 mm 1 – 3
10 – 20 mm 3 – 6
<10 mm 5 – max
Aluminium >15 mm 1
<15 mm 1 – 2
Plastic >15 mm 1 – 2
<15 mm 2 – 3
After longer periods of working at low speed, allow
the machine to cool down by running it for a few
minutes at high speed with no load
Height setting of the router column
Fig. B
The clamping lever (10) is used to set the
maximum height of the router.
The plunge depth is then fixed. This is usually
necessary when using the tool on a special router
table. Make sure the router column is not locked.
