DOUBLE INSULATION
Double insulation is a concept in safety, in electric power tools, which eliminates the need for the usual three-wire grounded power cord. All exposed metal parts are isolated from internal metal motor components with protecting insulation. Double insulated tools do not need to be grounded.
^ WARNING: Do not attempt to operate this tool until you have read thoroughly and understand completely all instructions, safety rules, etc. contained in this manual. Failure to comply can result in accidents involving fire, electric shock, or serious personal injury. Save owner's manual and review frequently for continuing safe operation, and instructing others who may use this tool.

■MAKE SURE YOUR EXTENSION CORD IS IN GOOD CONDITION. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current y^ur product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. A wire gage size (A.W.G.) of at least 14 is recommended for an extension cord 50 feet or less in length. A cord exceeding 100 feet is not recommended. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord.
■OUTDOOR USE EXTENSION CORDS. When tool is used outdoors, use only extension cords suitable for use outdoors. Outdoor approved cords are marked with the suffix W-A, for example - SJTW-A or SJOW-A.

FEATURES
KNOW YOUR ROUTER
See Figure 1.
Before attempting to use any tool, familiarize yourself with all operating features and safety requirements.
CHIP SHIELD
See Figure 1.
A clear plastic chip shield is installed on the front of your router for protection against flying dust and chips. The shield is designed to fit the front opening of the router base. If necessary to remove chip shield, squeeze the tabs on each end and pull outward. To replace, squeeze the tabs at each end, fit into opening, then release. For your protection, do not use router without chip shield properly in place.

See Figure 1.
The switch of your router is equipped with a lock-on feature which is convenient when operating for extended periods of time. To lock on, depress the trigger, push in the lock button located on the side of the handle, then while holding the lock button pushed in, release the trigger. To release the lock, depress the trigger and release,
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 router does not operate when plugged into an outlet, double-check the power supply.
^ WARNING: If any parts are missing, do not operate your router until the missing parts are replaced. Failure to do so could result in possible serious personal injury
