CUTTER INSTALLATION (Fig. 4&5)
UNPLUG YOUR ROUTER.
WARNING:
Failure to unplug your router could result in
accidental starting causing serious injury.
CAUTION:
To prevent damage to the spindle or spindle lock,
always allow motor to come to a complete stop
before engaging spindle lock.
Depress spindle lock.
Lay router down on work bench in order to gain easy
access to collet nut .
Place the wrench provided through front of router base
onto collet nut and turn counterclockwise to loosen.
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 burned because of the
heat build up from cutting. Always use the wrench
provided.
Install router bit once collet nut is loose. If changing bits,
the bit already installed will easily slip from collet after
loosening the collet nut. NOTE: The collet is machined to
precision tolerances to fit bits with 12.7 mm (1/2”) diameter
shanks. To use bits with 6.35 mm ( 1/4”) diameter shanks,
insert the 6.35 mm ( 1/4”) collet adaptor into the 12.7 mm
(1/2”)collet.
Tighten the collet nut securely by turning clockwise with
the wrench provided.
Release spindle lock.
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. Under-
sized 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.
