General Safety Rules

shock, ﬁ re and/or serious injury. The term “power tool” in all of the warnings listed below refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

Read all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

1) Work area safety

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents. b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of

ﬂ ammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can

3) Personal safety

cause you to lose control.

a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use

anyadapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodiﬁ ed plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.

b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, rang-

es and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.

c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will

increase the risk of electric shock.

d) 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. Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong grounding-type plugs and 3-pole receptacles that accept the tool’s plug.

e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor

use. If an extension cord is to be used outdoors, it must be marked with the sufﬁ x W-A or W following the cord type designation. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. The following table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

Minimum Gauge for Cord Sets

a) 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 inﬂ uence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in

serious personal injury.

b) Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as dust

mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.

c) Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the switch is in the off-position before plugging in.

Carrying power tools with your ﬁ nger on the switch or plugging in power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

d) 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.

e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better

control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and

gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts. Air vents often cover moving parts and should also be avoided.

g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities,

ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of these devices can reduce dustrelated hazards.

4) Power tool use and care

a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The cor-

rect power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.

b) 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.

c) Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, chang-

ing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

d) 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.

e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage

of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tools operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly

maintained power tools.

f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting

edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance with these instruc-

tions and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, 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

a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualiﬁ ed repair person using only identical re-

placement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

ADDITIONAL SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

• Hold tool 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.

• 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.

• Metal cutting with router: If using router for metal cutting, clean out tool often. Metal dust and chips often accumulate on interior surfaces and could create a risk of serious injury, electrical shock or death.

• Never run the motor unit when it is not inserted in one of the router bases. The motor is not designed to be handheld.

• Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease. This will enable better control of the tool.

• Keep hands away from cutting area. Never reach under the workpiece for any reason. Keep the router base firmly in contact with the workpiece when cutting. Hold the router only by the handles. These precautions will reduce the risk of personal injury.

• Use sharp cutters. Dull cutters may cause the router to swerve or stall under pressure.

• Never touch the bit immediately after use. It may be extremely hot.

• Be sure that the motor has stopped completely before you lay the router down. If the cutter head is still spinning when the tool is laid down, it could cause injury or damage.

• Be sure that the router bit is clear of the workpiece before starting the motor. If the bit is in contact with the workpiece when the motor starts it could make the router jump, causing damage or injury.

• Do not press spindle lock button while the motor is running. Doing so can damage the spindle lock.

Wear appropriate hearing protection during use [ANSI S12.6 (S3.19)]. Under some con-

ditions and duration of use, noise from this product may contribute to hearing loss.

activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

• lead from lead-based paint.

• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products.

• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber (CCA).

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

other construction activities. Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas with soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may promote absorption of harmful chemicals.

permanent respiratory or other injury. Always use NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles away from face and body.

USING THE TOOL (ALL UNITS)

Always be sure the work is rigidly clamped or otherwise secured before making a cut.

Since the cutter rotates clockwise (when viewing router from top), move the router from left to right as you stand facing the work. When working on the inside of a templet, move the router in a clockwise direction. When working on the outside of a templet, move the router in a counterclockwise direction.

Avoid “Climb-Cutting” (cutting in direction opposite that shown in Fig. 11). “ClimbCutting” increases the chance for loss of control resulting in possible injury. When “Climb-Cutting” is required (backing around a corner), exercise extreme caution to maintain control of router. Make smaller cuts and remove minimal material with each pass.

Règles Générales Sur la Sécurité

risques de choc électrique, d’incendie et/ou de blessure grave. Le terme « outil électrique » dans tous les avertissements ci-après se rapporte à votre outil électrique à alimentation sur secteur (avec ﬁ l) ou par piles (sans ﬁ l).

CONSERVER CES DIRECTIVES

1) Sécurité du lieu de travail

a) Tenir la zone de travail propre et bien éclairée. Les lieux encombrés ou sombres sont

propices aux accidents.

b) Ne pas faire fonctionner d’outils électriques dans un milieu déﬂ agrant, soit en pré-

sence de liquides, de gaz ou de poussières inﬂ ammables. Les outils électriques produisent des étincelles qui peuvent enﬂ ammer la poussière ou les vapeurs.

c) Éloigner les enfants et les personnes à proximité pendant l’utilisation d’un outil élec-

trique. Une distraction pourrait vous en faire perdre la maîtrise.

2) Sécurité en matière d’électricité a) La ﬁ che de l’outil électrique doit être compatible avec la prise de courant. Ne modiﬁ ez

jamais la ﬁ che de quelque façon que ce soit. N’utilisez jamais d’adaptateurs de ﬁ ches avec des outils électriques mis à la terre. Le risque de choc électrique sera réduit par

l’utilisation de ﬁ ches non modiﬁ ées et de prises de courant compatibles.

b) Éviter tout contact physique avec des surfaces mises à la terre comme des tuyaux,

des radiateurs, des cuisinières et des réfrigérateurs. Le risque de choc électrique est plus élevé si votre corps est mis à la terre.

c) Ne pas exposer les outils électriques à la pluie ou à l’humidité. La pénétration de l’eau

dans un outil électrique augmente le risque de choc électrique.

d) Ne pas utiliser le cordon de façon abusive. Ne jamais utiliser le cordon pour trans-

porter, tirer ou débrancher un outil électrique. Tenir le cordon éloigné de la chaleur, de l’huile, des bords tranchants ou des pièces mobiles. Les cordons endommagés ou

enchevêtrés augmentent les risques de choc électrique. Utiliser uniquement une rallonge à 3 ﬁ ls pourvue d’une ﬁ che de mise à la terre à 3 lames et une prise à 3 fentes correspondant à la ﬁ che.

e) Pour l’utilisation d’un outil électrique à l’extérieur, se servir d’une rallonge convenant

à une telle utilisation. Si la rallonge sera utilisée à l’extérieur, elle doit être estampillée d’un W-A ou d’un W suivi de la classiﬁ cation de la rallonge. L’utilisation d’une rallonge conçue pour l’extérieur réduit les risques de choc électrique. Lorsque qu’une rallonge électrique est utilisée, s’assurer d’en utiliser une de calibre sufﬁ samment élevé pour assurer le transport du courant nécessaire au fonctionnement de l’appareil. Un cordon de calibre inférieur causera une chute de tension de ligne et donc une perte de puissance et une surchauffe. Le tableau suivant indique le calibre approprié à utiliser selon la longueur du cordon et l’intensité nominale de la plaque signalétique. En cas de doute, utiliser le calibre suivant le plus gros.

3) Sécurité personnelle a) Être vigilant, surveiller le travail effectué et faire preuve de jugement lorsqu’un outil

électrique est utilisé. Ne pas utiliser d’outil électrique en cas de fatigue ou sous l’inﬂ uence de drogues, d’alcool ou de médicaments. Un moment d’inattention, durant l’uti-

lisation d’un outil électrique, peut se solder par des blessures graves.

b) Utiliser un équipement de sécurité. Toujours porter une protection oculaire. L’utili-

sation d’un équipement de sécurité comme un masque anti-poussières, des chaussures antidérapantes, un casque de sécurité ou des protecteurs auditifs lorsque la situation le requiert réduira les risques de blessures corporelles.

c) Éviter un démarrage accidentel. S’assurer que l’interrupteur se trouve à la position

d’arrêt avant de brancher l’outil. Transporter un outil électrique alors que le doigt repose sur l’interrupteur ou brancher un outil électrique dont l’interrupteur est à la position de marche risque de provoquer un accident.

d) Retirer toute clé de réglage ou clé standard avant de démarrer l’outil. Une clé standard

ou une clé de réglage attachée à une partie pivotante de l’outil peut provoquer des blessures corporelles.

e) Ne pas trop tendre les bras. Conserver son équilibre en tout temps. Cela permet de

mieux maîtriser l’outil électrique dans les situations imprévues.

f) S’habiller de manière appropriée. Ne pas porter de vêtements amples ni de bijoux.

Garder les cheveux, les vêtements et les gants à l’écart des pièces mobiles. Les vêtements amples, bijoux ou cheveux longs pourraient s’enchevêtrer dans les pièces mobiles.

g) Si des composants sont fournis pour le raccordement de dispositifs de dépoussiéra-

ge et de ramassage, s’assurer que ceux-ci sont bien raccordés et utilisés. L’utilisation de ces dispositifs peut réduire les risques engendrés par les poussières.

4) Utilisation et entretien d’un outil électrique

a) Ne pas forcer un outil électrique. Utiliser l’outil électrique approprié à l’application.

L’outil électrique approprié effectuera un meilleur travail, de façon plus sûre et à la vitesse pour laquelle il a été conçu.

b) Ne pas utiliser un outil électrique dont l’interrupteur est défectueux. Tout outil électri-

que dont l’interrupteur est défectueux est dangereux et doit être réparé.

c) Débrancher la ﬁ che du bloc d’alimentation avant de faire quelque ajustement que ce

soit, de changer d’accessoire ou de ranger les outils électriques. Ces mesures préventives réduisent les risques de démarrage accidentel de l’outil électrique.

d) Ranger les outils électriques inutilisés hors de la portée des enfants, et ne permettre

à aucune personne n’étant pas familière avec l’outil électrique ou son mode d’emploi d’utiliser ce dernier. Les outils électriques deviennent dangereux entre les mains d’utilisa-

teurs inexpérimentés.

e) Entretenir les outils électriques. Vériﬁ er si les pièces mobiles sont mal alignées ou

Lire toutes les directives. Tout manquement aux directives suivantes pose des
