OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE:
Before using the tool, read the
instruction book carefully.
Intended Use
The machine is intended for routing grooves,
edges, profiles and elongated holes as well
as for copy routing in wood, plastic and light
building materials, while resting firmly on the
workpiece.
1.INSERT THE ROUTER CUTTER
Router Cutter Selection
Depending on processing and application,
router Cutter are available in many different
designs and qualities:
Router cutter made of high-speed steel
(HSS)
is suitable for the machining of soft
materials, e. g. softwood and plastic.
Carbide tipped router Cutter (HM)
is
particularly suitable for hard and abrasive
materials, e. g. hard wood and aluminum.
WARNING:
Use only routing tools with
an allowable speed matching at least
the highest no load speed of the machine.
The shank diameter of the router cutter
must correspond with the rated diameter of
the collet.
Inserting Router Cutter (See A)
Before any work on the machine
itself, disconnect the mains plug. It is
recommended to wear protective gloves
when inserting or replacing router cutter.
Press spindle lock button (14) and keep
depressed. If required, turn the spindle by hand
until the lock engages.
Press the spindle lock button only when at a

Insert router Cutter. The shank of the router
Cutter must be inserted at least 20 mm (shank
length).
Tighten the tightening nut (13) with the spanner
(19) (size 22 mm). Release the spindle lock
button.
WARNING:
Do not tighten the
tightening nut of the collet without a
router bit inserted.
HOW TO FIT THE 6.35 MM COLLET (SEE B)
This router is supplied with a 6.35mm collet as
an accessory.
To fit the 6.35 mm collet (b) simply slide it into
the 12.7mm collet (a) fitted to the collet nut.
The 6.35 mm collet has a flange coller to ensure
insertion to correct depth.
NOTE: 1. Do not attempt to remove the
12.7mm collet from the collet nut.
2. Always wear safety gloves when
changing the router cutter.
2. MOUNTING THE EXTRACTION ADAPTER
(See C)

hose, you must fasten dust adapter (20) to base
plate (10) with both screws and nuts (25).
WARNING: When mounting the
extraction adapter, ensure correct
mounting position!
For dust extraction, the vacuum hose can
be connected directly to the extraction
adapter.
Clean the dust adapter (20) regularly to
ensure optimum dust extraction at all
times.
The vacuum cleaner must be suitable for
the material to be worked.
When vacuuming dry dust that is
especially detrimental to health or
carcinogenic, use a special vacuum
cleaner.
