WARNING:
If you are changing a cutter immediately after
use, be careful not to touch the cutter or collet
with your hands or fingers. They will get
burn
t
because of the heat buildup from cutting. Always
use the wrench provided.
■
Install cutter (21) once collet nut is loose. If changing
cutters, cutter will easily slip from collet (24) after
loosening collet nut. For example: The collet is
machined to precision tolerances to fit cutters with
12.7 mm diameter shanks. To use cutters with
6.35 mm
diameter shanks, insert the 6.35 mm
collet adaptor (18)
into the 12.7 mm collet.
■
Insert shank of cutter until shank bottoms out, then pull
it out 1.6 mm to allow for expansion when the
bit get hot.
■
Tighten the collet nut securely by turning clockwise
with the wrench provided.
■
Release spindle lock.
■
Replace chip shield.
WARNING:
If the collet nut is not securely tightened, the cutter
may detach during use causing serious personal
injury.
WARNING:
Do not use cutters with undersized shanks.
Undersized shanks will not tighten properly and
could be thrown from the tool causing injury.
WARNING:
Do not use cutters that are larger in diameter
than the opening in router base. Use of such
cutters will come in contact with the router base
and damage both the cutter and router base.
This situation could also cause possible loss of
control or create other hazardous conditions that
could cause possible serious personal injury.
DEPTH OF CUT
When routing a groove that is too deep to safely cut in
one pass, it is best to make the cut in several passes.
We recommend that cuts be made at a depth not
exceeding 3.2 mm and that several passes be
made to
reach deeper cuts.
Proper depth of cut depends on several factors
