DOUBLE INSULATION

Only for EU countries

Do not dispose of electric equipment together with household waste material! In observance of the European Directive, on Waste Electric and Electronic Equipment and its implementation in accordance with national law, electric equipment that have reached the end of their life must be collected separately and returned to an environmentally compatible recycling facility.

Intended use

The tool is intended for lush trimming and proiling of wood, plastic and similar materials.

Power supply

The tool should be connected only to a power supply of the same voltage as indicated on the nameplate, and can only be operated on single-phase AC supply. They are double-insulated and can, therefore, also be used from sockets without earth wire.

For public low-voltage distribution systems of between 220 V and

250 V.

Switching operations of electric apparatus cause volt- age luctuations. The operation of this device under

unfavorable mains conditions can have adverse effects to the operation of other equipment. With a mains impedance equal or less than 0.35 Ohms it can be presumed that there will be no negative effects. The mains socket used for this device must be protected with a fuse or protective circuit breaker having slow tripping characteristics.

Noise

The typical A-weighted noise level determined according to EN60745:

Sound pressure level (LpA) : 86 dB(A) Sound power level (LWA) : 97 dB (A) Uncertainty (K) : 3 dB(A)

WARNING: Wear ear protection.

Vibration

The vibration total value (tri-axial vector sum) determined according to EN60745:

Work mode: cutting grooves in MDF Vibration emission (ah) : 2.5 m/s2 Uncertainty (K) : 1.5 m/s2

NOTE: The declared vibration emission value has been measured in accordance with the standard test method and may be used for comparing one tool with another.

NOTE: The declared vibration emission value may also be used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.

WARNING: The vibration emission during actual use of the power tool can differ from the declared emission value depending on the ways in which the tool is used.

WARNING: Be sure to identify safety measures to protect the operator that are based on an estimation of exposure in the actual conditions of use (taking account of all parts of the operating cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off and when it is running idle in addition to the trigger time).

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, ire and/or serious injury.

Save all warnings and instruc-

tions 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 lammable 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

1.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. Unmodiied plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.

2.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.

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

4.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.

5.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.

6.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.

7.Use of power supply via an RCD with a rated residual current of 30 mA or less is always recommended.

Personal Safety

1.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 inluence of drugs, alcohol or med -

ication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

2.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.

3.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 inger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

4.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.

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

6.Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or

jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewel- lery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

7.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

1.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.

2.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.

3.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.

4.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.

5.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.

6.Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

7.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.

3ENGLISH

Service

1.Have your power tool serviced by a qualiied repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

2.Follow instruction for lubricating and changing accessories.

3.Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease.

Router safety warnings

1.Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, because the cutter may contact its own cord. Cutting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power 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 your hand or against the body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.

3.Wear hearing protection during extended period of operation.

4.Handle the router bits very carefully.

5.Check the router 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 irmly with both hands.

8.Keep hands away from rotating parts.

9.Make sure the router 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 router 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 router bit to come to a complete stop before removing the tool from workpiece.

14.Do not touch the router 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.Use router bits of the correct shank diameter 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: Since excessive cutting may cause overload of the motor or dificulty in controlling

the tool, the depth of cut should not be more than

20 mm (13/16″) at a pass when cutting grooves.

When you wish to cut grooves more than 20 mm

(13/16″) deep, make several passes with progres - sively deeper router bit settings.

CAUTION: Do not lower the knob too low. The router bit will protrude dangerously.

Stopper block

As the rotary stopper has three adjusting hex bolts, you

can easily obtain three different depths of cut without readjusting the stopper pole. To adjust the hex bolts,

loosen the hex nuts on them and turn the hex bolts. After obtaining the desired position, tighten the hex nuts to secure the hex bolts.
