Removing the Motor from the
Base (Fig . 4)
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.
1. Turn the motor off and unplug the router from
the power source.
2. Place the router (fixed base and motor
housing) on a flat surface.
3. With the back of the router facing you, open
the motor clamp (A).
4. Push in the coarse adjustment knob (B) to release the motor slot (C) from the pin (D) in the
fixed base, while you lift the router motor free of the fixed base.
5. Set the motor housing upside down on the motor-housing top cap with the collet pointing up
and remove the cutter bit.
WARNING
Always remove the cutter bit from collet/nut when the router is not being
used. Leaving bits installed could result in accidents causing serious
personal injury.
Adjusting the Depth of Cut (Fig . 5)
WARNING
Your router should never be
turned on or be connected
to the power source when you are assembling
parts, making adjustments, installing or
removing collets/nuts, cutter bits, cleaning the
product or when it is not in use. Disconnecting
the router will prevent accidental starting,
which could cause serious personal injury.
NOTICE: All depth adjustments on the fixed
base must be made with the motor clamp
open.
NOTICE: For all fixed base routers, the cutter
bit depth equals the amount of the cutter that is
exposed below the surface of the sub-base.
The fixed base is designed with a micrometer-fine adjustment system. When the bit is lowered
to the approximate position desired (coarse setting), the system then can be micro-adjusted to
the precise depth required.
Coarse Adjustment
Depressing the coarse adjustment knob (B) allows you to quickly lower or raise the cutter bit
to an approximate depth setting.
