ENGLISH
■ Let motor build to full speed, then gradually plunge
cutter into workpiece until stop bar comes into contact
with depth stop.
■ Lock plunge lock lever to secure depth of cut setting.
■ Begin routing out the pattern, continuing until a
complete pass at this depth of cut has been made.
WARNING:
Do not use large router bits for freehand routing.
Use of large router bits when freehand routing
could cause loss of control or create other
hazardous conditions that could cause possible
serious personal injury.
■ Several cuts that require repositioning of router may
be needed for a particular job. If this situation exists,
unlock plunge lock lever to raise cutter inside router
base after each cut, reposition router for next cut,
gradually plunge cutter into workpiece until stop bar
contacts depth stop, lock plunge lock lever and continue
routing.
■ After all cuts have been made, unlock plunge lock
lever, raise cutter inside router base, remove router
from workpiece, turn off the router, and allow cutter to
come to a complete stop.
ROUTING EDGES
Place router on workpiece, making sure the router bit
does not contact workpiece. Turn router on and let the
motor build to its full speed. Begin your cut, gradually
feeding cutter into workpiece.
WARNING:
Keep a firm grip on router with both hands at all
times. Failure to do so could result in loss of
control leading to possible serious injury.
Upon completion of cut, turn motor off and let it come to
a complete stop before removing router from work
surface.
WARNING:
Never pull router out of work and place upside
down on work surface before the cutter stops.

The dust extractor hose can be connected to the dust
extraction channel.
OPERATION
FINE HEIGHT ADJUSTER (32)
It is used to precisely control the depth of the cutter.
■ To use the fine height adjuster, ensure that the
plunge lock is released.
■
Rotate the knob clockwise to raise the cutter,
anticlockwise to lower the cutter.
■ When the desired position is reached, re-engage the
plunge lock before use.
FINE HEIGHT ADJUSTER QUICK RELEASE
BUTTON (33)
This disengages the fine height adjuster allowing a large
adjustments of plunge depth to be quickly made.
■ To make large adjustments to cutter height, ensure
that the plunge lock is released.
■ Press the quick release button whilst plunging the
router to the required height.
■ Release the button, check the height, make fine
adjustments if necessary with the fine height adjuster,
then re-engage the plunge lock before use.
ADJUSTMENTS
DEPTH OF CUT
As previously mentioned, the depth of cut (30) is important
because it affects the rate of feed that, in turn, affects the
quality of the cut (and, also, the possibility of damage to
your router motor and bit). A deep cut requires a slower
feed than a shallow one, and a too deep cut will cause
you to slow the feed so much that the bit is no longer
cutting, it is scraping, instead.
Making a deep cut is never advisable. The smaller bits
— are easily broken off when subjected to too much side
thrust. A large enough bit may not be broken, but if the
cut is too deep a rough cut will result — and it may be very
difficult to guide and control the bit as desired. For these
reasons, we recommend that you do not exceed 1/8 in.
(3.2 mm) depth of cut in a single pass, regardless of the
bit size or the softness or condition of the workpiece.
To make deeper cuts it is therefore necessary to make
as many successive passes as required, lowering the bit
1/8 in. (3.2 mm) for each new pass. In order to save time,
do all the cutting necessary at one depth setting, before
lowering the bit for the next pass. This will also assure a
uniform depth when the final pass is completed.
