GENERAL SAFETY RULES

WARNING!

READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL INSTRUCTIONS

Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in

electric shock, fire, and/or serious injury.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WORK AREA

1. Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite accidents.

2. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the pres- ence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

REV 08/04

SKU 91130 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353. Page 2

Page 3

3. Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control. Protect others in the work area from debris such as chips and sparks. Provide barriers or shields as needed.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

4. Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet properly installed and grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. Never remove the grounding prong or modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. If the tools should electrically malfunction or

break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user.

5. Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is

wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. Double insulation eliminates the need for the

three wire grounded power cord and grounded power supply system.

6. Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.

7. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

8. Do not abuse the Power Cord. Never use the Power Cord to carry the tools

or pull the Plug from an outlet. Keep the Power Cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts. Replace damaged Power Cords immediately. Damaged Power Cords increase the risk of electric shock.

9. When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked “W-A” or “W”. These extension cords are rated for outdoor use, and

reduce the risk of electric shock.

PERSONAL SAFETY

10. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operat-

ing power tools may result in serious personal injury.

SKU 91130 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353. Page 3

Page 4

11. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

12. Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the Power Switch is off before plugging in. Carrying power tools with your finger on the Power Switch, or plugging in power tools with the Power Switch on, invites accidents.

13. Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.

14. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

15. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions.

TOOL USE AND CARE

16. Use clamps (not included) or other practical ways to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your

body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.

17. Do not force the tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.

18. Do not use the power tool if the Power Switch does not turn it on or off. Any tool that cannot be controlled with the Power Switch is dangerous and must be replaced.

19. Disconnect the Power Cord Plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.

20. Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

21. Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained tools with a sharp cutting edge are less likely to bind and are easier to control. Do not use a damaged tool. Tag damaged tools “Do not use” until repaired.

SKU 91130 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353. Page 4

Page 5

22. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and

any other condition that may affect the tool’s operation. If damaged, have the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly main-

tained tools.

23. Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may become hazardous when used on another tool.

SERVICE

24. Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service or maintenance performed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury.

25. When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow

instructions in the manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow maintenance instructions

may create a risk of electric shock or injury.

GROUNDING

WARNING!

Improperly connecting the grounding wire can result in the risk of electric

shock. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the

outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the power cord plug provided with

the tool. Never remove the grounding prong from the plug. Do not use the

tool if the power cord or plug is damaged. If damaged, have it repaired by

a service facility before use. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have a proper

outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

GROUNDED TOOLS: TOOLS WITH THREE PRONG PLUGS

1. Tools marked with “Grounding Required” have a three wire cord and three prong grounding plug. The plug must be connected to a properly grounded outlet. If the tool should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user, reducing the risk of electric shock. (See Figure A.)

2. The grounding prong in the plug is connected through the green wire inside the cord to the grounding system in the tool. The green wire in the cord must be the only wire connected to the tool’s grounding system and must never be attached to an electrically “live” terminal. (See Figure A.)

3. Your tool must be plugged into an appropriate outlet, properly installed and grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. The plug and outlet should look like those in the following illustration. (See Figure A.)

FIGURE A

SKU 91130 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353. Page 8

Page 9

DOUBLE INSULATED TOOLS: TOOLS WITH TWO PRONG PLUGS

4. Tools marked “Double Insulated” do not require grounding. They have a special double insulation system which satisfies OSHA requirements and complies with the applicable standards of Underwriters Laboratories, Inc., the Canadian Standard Association, and the National Electrical Code. (See Figure B.)

5. Double insulated tools may be used in either of the 120 volt outlets shown in the following illustration. (See Figure B.)

3. NOTE: The Feather Boards (14C, 21B) are designed to hold the workpiece in place and prevent kickback. To adjust the Feather Boards, simply loosen the Lock Knobs (8C, 14B) and move the Feather Boards into the workpiece. Then, retighten the Lock Knobs. Make sure the “feathers” of the Feather Boards allow easy feed of the workpiece and help prevent kickback. (See Figures R and S.)

To Attach The Miter Gauge:

1. The Miter Gauge (27C) slides horizontally along the Main Table (20B) and is designed for edging and miter cuts in the workpiece. (See Figure T, next page.)

2. To attach the Miter Gauge (27C), simply slide its bar into the Miter Gauge Channel on the Main Table (20B). (See Figure T.)

3. To adjust the Miter Gauge (27C) to the desired angle, loosen the Fence Lock Knob (8C) and rotate the Miter Gauge to the desired angle from 0 degrees to 45 degrees. Then, retighten the Fence Lock Knob. (See Figure T.)

To Adjust The Upper Fence:

1. The Upper Fence (16C) can be adjusted according to the size of the workpiece and the application being performed. To do so, loosen the four Fence Adjusting Knobs (13C). (See Figure T.)

2. Slide the Upper Fence (16C) forward or backward to the desired position. Use the gauge on the Main Table (20B) to determine the distance from the Upper Fence to the center of the router bit. Then, retighten the four Fence Adjusting Knobs (13C). (See Figure T.)

To Adjust The Speed (RPM):

1. NOTE: Using the correct speed for the job increases the life of the router bit and can also affect the surface finish on the workpiece being cut. The Router Table features a Variable Speed Adjustment (28B) and may be adjusted from approximately 8,400 RPM to 27,800 RPM (no load). (See Figure U, next page.)

2. The Dial of the Variable Speed Adjustment (28B) is numbered from 1 to 6, with 1 being the

slowest

speed and 6 being the

fastest

speed. It is recommended to

determine the optimum speed by making a trial cut in a scrap piece of wood.

(See Figure U.)

3. IMPORTANT: Do not attempt to adjust the speed while the Router Table is running. Turn off the machine, and allow it to come to a complete stop

before

adjusting the speed. (See Figure U.)

5. Feed the workpiece gradually from right to left against the rotation of the cutter. Keep the feed rate constant. Feeding the workpiece too quickly will slow the Motor of the machine. Feeding the workpiece too slowly will cause burns to the workpiece.

6. On very hard wood or large cuts it may be necessary to make more than one pass at progressive depth settings until the desired depth of cut is made.

7. When finished, depress the Safety Cover (10B) to turn off the Router Table. Then, unplug the Power Cord/Plug from its electrical outlet.

INSPECTION, MAINTENANCE, AND CLEANING

1. CAUTION! Always turn the Power Switch (9B) to its “STOP” position and unplug the Power Cord (1B) from its 120 volt electrical outlet before performing any inspection, adjustments, maintenance, or cleaning.

2. BEFORE EACH USE, inspect the general condition of the Router Table. Check for loose screws, misalignment or binding of moving parts, cracked or broken parts, damaged electrical wiring, loose router bit, and any other condition that may affect its safe operation. If abnormal noise or vibration occurs, have the problem corrected before further use.

Do not use damaged equipment.

3. DAILY: With a soft brush, cloth, or vacuum, remove all sawdust and debris from the Router Table, particularly, the machine’s Dust Port (26C) and Main Table (20B), Then, use a premium quality, lightweight machine oil to lubricate all moving parts.
