OPERATION
When cutting, fit the base of the router over the work surface
and firmly hold the body of the router as shown. Make sure
the router is running at full speed before contacting the
workpiece.
To remove the vacuum adaptor and install the chip shield:
Remove the battery pack.
Turn the router upside down to remove the four subbase
screws and the subbase.
Place your fingers inside the base and gently push out on
WARNING:
top of the vacuum adaptor near the tab until it snaps free.
Avoid hand positions that may expose fingers to
bit through open areas of router base. Fingers
entering the opening in the router base can be
seriously cut or burned.
Hold the chip shield at a slight angle and place it onto the
base so that the rounded edges of the shield are aligned
with the holes in the base.
Gently press the top of the chip shield until the tab snaps
into place.
Align the tabs on the subbase with the grooves in the
removable base, then place the subbase onto the
removable base.
WARNING:
Never install a trim bit in this router with a diameter
larger than the opening in the subbase. The use of
larger bits can result in loss of control and possible
serious personal injury.
Attach the square subbase using the four subbase
screws.
Tighten the screws securely. Do not over tighten.
TURNING THE COMPACT ROUTER ON/OFF
See Figure 7, page 13.
WARNING:
Never use a trim bit in this router which is rated at
less than 30,000 RPMs. Doing so could result in
serious personal injuy.
To turn the router on, pull the slide switch to the (I) ON
position.
NOTE: The router has a soft start feature. The router will
start at a slow speed and gradually get up to the speed
set by the adjustable speed dial.
WARNING:
To turn the router off, push the slide switch to the (O) OFF
Always use a subbase recommended for use with
this product when trimming. Use of the router
without a subbase or using the incorrect subbase
can result in serious personal injury.
position.
WARNING:
The bit will continue to spin after the router is
turned off. Wait for the bit to come to a complete
stop to continue operation. Failure to do so could
result in possible serious injury.
DIRECTION OF FEED AND THRUST
See Figures 10 - 11, page 13.
The router motor and bit revolve in a clockwise direction. This
gives the tool a slight tendency to twist in your hands in a
counterclockwise direction, especially when the motor starts.
ADJUSTING THE SPEED
See Figure 8, page 13.
Feed the router into the workpiece from left to right. When
fed from left to right, the rotation of the bit pulls the router
against the workpiece. If fed in the opposite direction, the
rotation forces of the spinning bit will tend to throw the router
away from the workpiece, causing kickback. This could result
in loss of control of the router.
The variable speed dial is located on the front of the motor
housing. The speed is adjustable from 17,000 RPMs to
30,000 RPMs.
Rotate the dial to higher numbers to increase speed.
Rotate the dial to lower numbers to decrease speed.
Because of the extremely high speed of bit rotation during a
proper feeding operation, there is very little kickback under
normal conditions. However, if the bit strikes a knot, hard
grain, foreign object, etc., this will affect the normal progress
of the cutting action, possibly causing a slight kickback.
Kickback could be sufficient to spoil the trueness of your
cut if you are not prepared. Such a kickback is always in the
direction opposite the direction of bit rotation.
OPERATING THE COMPACT ROUTER
See Figure 9, page 13.
Before starting the router, make sure the bit is securely
tightened in the collet and that the depth of cut is properly
set. See Setting Depth of Cut later in this manual. Never
start the router while the bit is in contact with the workpiece.
After completing a cut, pull the bit slightly away from the
cut surface. Turn the router off and wait for the rotating bit
to completely stop before removing the base from the work
surface.
