Router maintenance

WARNING!

DO NOT 

allow brake fluid, gasoline, petroleum-based products, penetrating oils, etc. to 

come into contact with plastic parts at any time. These substances can damage, weaken, or 
destroy plastic, which may result in serious personal injury.

1.  When the work has been completed, clean the tool to allow smooth functioning of the tool over time.

2.  Use a clean, damp cloth to wipe the tool.

3.  Check the state of all electrical cables.

4.  Keep the motor air openings free of oil, grease, and sawdust or woodchips, and store the tool in a 

dry place.

5.  Be certain that all moving parts are well lubricated, particularly after lengthy exposure to damp and/

or dirty conditions.

Replacing carbon brushes

 (fig 19)

1.  Unplug the router motor before inspecting or 

replacing brushes.

2.  Replace both carbon brushes when either has 

less than 1/4" of carbon remaining, or if the 
spring or wire is damaged or burned.

3.  Using a slotted screwdriver, remove the black 

plastic cap on each side of the router motor 
(fig 19), and carefully remove the spring-
loaded brush assemblies. Keep brushes clean 
and sliding freely in their guide channels.

NOTICE: To reinstall the same brushes, make sure the brushes go back in the same way they 
came out. This will avoid a break-in period.

4.  Insert new brush assemblies into the guide channels, with the carbon part going in first, and be 

sure to fit the two metal “ears” into their slots in the channel (fig 19).

5.  Remember to replace both end caps after inspecting or servicing the brushes. Tighten the caps 

snugly, but do not over-tighten. The router should be allowed to “RUN IN” (run at no load without a 
cutter bit) for 5 minutes before use to seat the new brushes properly.

WARNING!

For personal safety, always turn the switch off and unplug the router motor from the power 
source before performing any maintenance or cleaning.

Cleaning

Sawdust accumulation may cause uneven movement, binding of the gear assembly and possible 
damage to the router. Clean the dust and debris from the gear rack and plunger with compressed dry 
air or brush. Wear a mask and proper eye protection when you clean the tool. Always ensure that the 
gear rack mechanism has been cleaned and the plunger mechanism operates as intended before each 
use.

WARNING!

ALWAYS turn the motor off and unplug the router from the power source before making any 
adjustments or installing accessories. Failure to turn the motor off and unplug the router 
could result in accidental starting, which can cause serious personal injury

WARNING!

Certain cleaning agents and solvents damage plastic parts. Some of these are: gasoline, 
carbon tetrachloride, chlorinated cleaning solvents, ammonia and household detergents 
that contain ammonia.

Lubrication

All of the bearings in this tool are lubricated with a sufficient amount of high-grade lubricant for the life 
of the tool under normal operating conditions. Therefore, no further lubrication is required.
