General Power Tool Safety Warnings
WARNING Read all safety warnings and all
instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
Work area safety
1. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
2. Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools
create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
3. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical safety
4. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will
reduce risk of electric shock.
5. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of
electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
6. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
7. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords
increase the risk of electric shock.
8. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
9. If operating a power tool in a damp location is
unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces
the risk of electric shock.
10. Use of power supply via a RCD with a rated
residual current of 30mA or less is always recommended.
Personal safety
11. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
12. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
13. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the
switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with
your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
14. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
15. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
16. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes,
jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
17. If devices are provided for the connection of
dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used.
Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

Power tool use and care
18. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct
power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
19. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
20. Disconnect the plug from the power source
and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
21. Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
22. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
23. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
24. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power
tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
Service
25. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
26. Follow instruction for lubricating and
changing accessories.
27. Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
GEB018-2
ROUTER SAFETY WARNINGS
1. Hold power tools by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a "live" wire will make
exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator.
2. Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.
3. Wear hearing protection during extended
period of operation.
4. Handle the bits very carefully.
5. Check the bit carefully for cracks or damage
before operation. Replace cracked or damaged bit immediately.
6. Avoid cutting nails. Inspect for and remove all
nails from the workpiece before operation.
7. Hold the tool firmly with both hands.
8. Keep hands away from rotating parts.
9. Make sure the bit is not contacting the
workpiece before the switch is turned on.
10. Before using the tool on an actual workpiece,
let it run for a while. Watch for vibration or wobbling that could indicate improperly installed bit.
11. Be careful of the bit rotating direction and the
feed direction.
12. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool
only when hand-held.
13. Always switch off and wait for the bit to come
to a complete stop before removing the tool from workpiece.
14. Do not touch the bit immediately after
operation; it may be extremely hot and could burn your skin.
15. Do not smear the tool base carelessly with
thinner, gasoline, oil or the like. They may cause cracks in the tool base.
16. Draw attention to the need to use cutters of the
correct shank diameter and which are suitable for the speed of the tool.
17. Some material contains chemicals which may
be toxic. Take caution to prevent dust inhalation and skin contact. Follow material supplier safety data.
18. Always use the correct dust mask/respirator
for the material and application you are working with.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
WARNING:
DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with product (gained from repeated use) replace strict adherence to safety rules for the subject product. MISUSE or failure to follow the safety rules stated in this instruction manual may cause serious personal injury.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before adjusting or checking function on the tool.
Adjusting the depth of cut
1. Stopper pole
1
2
2. Screw
CAUTION:
Since excessive cutting may cause overload of the
motor or difficulty in controlling the tool, the depth of cut should not be more than 15 mm at a pass when cutting grooves with an 8 mm diameter bit.
When cutting grooves with a 20 mm diameter bit,
the depth of cut should not be more than 5 mm at a pass. When you wish to cut grooves more than 15 mm deep with an 8 mm diameter bit or more than 5 mm deep with a 20 mm diameter bit, make several passes with progressively deeper bit settings.

003253
Next, lower the stopper pole until it makes contact with the adjusting hex bolt. Align the depth pointer with the "0" graduation. Raise the stopper pole until the desired depth of cut is obtained. The depth of cut is indicated on the scale (1 mm per graduation) by the depth pointer. Then tighten the screw to secure the stopper pole. Now, your predetermined depth of cut can be obtained by loosening the lock lever and then lowering the tool body until the stopper pole makes contact with the adjusting hex bolt.

The stopper block has three adjusting hex bolts which raise or lower 0.8 mm per turn. You can easily obtain three different depths of cut using these adjusting hex bolts without readjusting the stopper pole. Adjust the lowest hex bolt to obtain the deepest depth of cut, following the method of "Adjusting depth of cut". Adjust the two remaining hex bolts to obtain shallower depths of cut. The differences in height of these hex bolts are equal to the differences in depths of cut. To adjust the hex bolts, first loosen the hex nuts on the hex bolts with the wrench and then turn the hex bolts. After obtaining the desired position, tighten the hex nuts while holding the hex bolts in that desired position. The stopper block is also convenient for making three passes with progressively deeper bit settings when cutting deep grooves.
CAUTION:
When using a bit having total length of 60 mm or more, or edge length of 35 mm or more, the depth of cut cannot be adjusted as previously mentioned. To adjust, proceed as follows: Loosen the lock lever and carefully adjust bit protrusion below the tool base to the desired depth of cut by moving the tool body up or down. Then retighten the lock lever to lock the tool body at that depth of cut. Keep the tool body locked at this position during use. Since the bit always protrudes from the tool base, be careful when handling the tool.

that the switch trigger actuates properly and returns
to the "OFF" position when released. To start the tool, simply pull the switch trigger. Release the switch trigger to stop.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before carrying out any work on the tool.
Installing or removing the bit
overtightened bit can be dangerous.
Do not tighten the collet nut without inserting a bit. It
can lead to breakage of the collet cone. Insert the bit all the way into the collet cone and tighten the collet nut securely with the two wrenches. A 6 mm or 1/4" collet cone is also provided as standard equipment besides the 8 mm or 3/8" collet cone that is factory installed on the tool. Use the correct size collet cone for the bit which you intend to use. To remove the bit, follow the installation procedure in reverse.
OPERATION
Set the tool base on the workpiece to be cut without the bit making any contact. Then turn the tool on and wait until the bit attains full speed. Lower the tool body and move the tool forward over the workpiece surface, keeping the tool base flush and advancing smoothly until the cutting is complete. When doing edge cutting, the workpiece surface should be on the left side of the bit in the feed direction.

NOTE:
Moving the tool forward too fast may cause a poor
quality of cut, or damage to the bit or motor. Moving
the tool forward too slowly may burn and mar the
cut. The proper feed rate will depend on the bit size,
the kind of workpiece and depth of cut. Before
beginning the cut on the actual workpiece, it is
advisable to make a sample cut on a piece of scrap
lumber. This will show exactly how the cut will look
as well as enable you to check dimensions.
When using the straight guide, be sure to install it
on the right side in the feed direction. This will help
to keep it flush with the side of the workpiece.
