WARNING:
Your router should never be connected to power supply
when you are assembling parts, making adjustments,
installing or removing cutters, or when not in use.
Disconnecting your router will prevent accidental starting
that could cause serious injury.
INSTALLING/REMOVING CUTTERS
See Figures 3, 4, and 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.
■
A spindle lock is located on the top of the end cap.
See
Figure 3. To activate lock, (1) push spindle lock in, (2)
slide into lock position, then (3) release spindle lock.
■
Place your router upside down on table, then turn collet
nut with wrench until lock mechanism interlocks.
See
Figure 4.
NOTE: Spindle lock is spring loaded and will snap into
position when lock mechanism interlocks.
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 buildup
from cutting. Always use the wrench provided.
■
Remove cutters by turning collet nut counterclockwise
enough to allow cutter to slip easily from collet.
See
Figure 4.
■
If installing cutter for the first time, it can be installed
once collet nut is loose. If changing cutters, cutter will
easily slip from collet after loosening collet nut.
■
The 1/2 in. (13 mm) collet is machined to precision
tolerances to fit cutters with 1/2 in. (13 mm) diameter
shanks. A 1/4 in. (6.4 mm) collet assembly has also
been provided with your router so that cutters with 1/4
in. (6.4 mm) shank bits can be used.
See Figure 5.
WARNING:
Do not use cutters with undersized shanks. Undersized
shanks will not tighten properly and could be thrown from
tool causing injury.
WARNING:
Before connecting your router to power supply, always
check to be sure switch is not in lock-on position. Failure
to do so could result in accidental starting of your router
resulting in possible serious injury.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Your router has a precision built electric motor. It should be
connected to a power supply that is 120 volts, 60 Hz, AC
only (normal household current). Do not operate this tool
on direct current (DC). A substantial voltage drop will cause
a loss of power and the motor will overheat. If your tool does
not operate when plugged into an outlet, double-check the
power supply.
