5 GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

Read all safety warnings and instructions. Failure to heed warnings and follow instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Keep safety warnings and instructions for future reference. The term "power tool" in the safety warnings refers to your mainsoperated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

5.1 Working area

 Keep working area clean and well lit. Untidy and dark areas can lead to accidents.  Do not operate power tools in potentially explosive surroundings, for example, in the

presence of inflammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

 Keep children and bystanders at a distance when operating a power tool. Distractions can

cause you to lose control of it.

5.2 Electrical safety

Always check that the power supply corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate.

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

adapter plugs with earthed power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce the risk of a lethal electric shock.

 Avoid body contact with earthed surfaces such as pipes, radiators, kitchen ranges and

refrigerators. There is an increased risk of a lethal electric shock if your body is earthed.

 Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. If water gets inside a power tool, it will

increase the risk of a lethal electric shock.

 Do not damage the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power

tool. Keep the cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of a lethal electric shock.

 When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cable suitable for outdoor use.

Using a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of a lethal electric shock.

 If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a power supply protected

by a residual current device (RCD). Using an RCD reduces the risk of a lethal electric shock.

5.3 Personal safety

 Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power

tool. Do not use a power tool when you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention when operating a power tool may result in serious personal injury.

 Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Using safety equipment such as a

dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, a hard hat, or hearing protection whenever it is needed will reduce the risk of personal injury.

 Avoid accidental starts. Ensure the switch is in the off position before inserting the plug.

Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in power tools when the switch is in the on position makes accidents more likely.

 Remove any adjusting keys or spanners before turning on the power tool. A spanner or

key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.

Page 4

 Do not reach out too far. Keep your feet firmly on the ground at all times. This will enable

you retain control over the power tool in unexpected situations.

 Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and

gloves away from the power tool. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can become entangled in the moving parts.

 If there are devices for connecting dust extraction and collection facilities, please ensure

that they are attached and used correctly. Using such devices can reduce dust-related hazards.

5.4 Power tool use and care

 Do not expect the power tool to do more than it can. Use the correct power tool for what

you want to do. A power tool will achieve better results and be safer if used in the context for which it was designed.

 Do not use the power tool if the switch cannot turn it on and off. A power tool with a broken

switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

 Disconnect the plug from the power source before making adjustments, changing

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

 Store power tools, when not in use, out of the reach of children and do not allow people

who are not familiar with the power tool or these instructions to operate it. Power tools are potentially dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

 Maintenance. Check for misalignment or jammed moving parts, breakages or any other

feature that might affect the operation of the power tool. If it is damaged, the power tool must be repaired. Many accidents are caused by using poorly maintained power tools.

 Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting

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

 Use the power tool, accessories and cutting tools, etc., in accordance with these

instructions and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, taking into account the working conditions and the work which needs to be done. Using a power tool in ways for which it was not intended can lead to potentially hazardous situations.

5.5 Service

 Your power tool should be serviced by a qualified specialist using only standard spare

parts. This will ensure that it meets the required safety standards.

6 SPECIFIC SAFETY WARNINGS

 Always use cutters with the correct spindle diameter.  Always use cutters suitable for the speed of the machine.

POWX091 EN

7 ASSEMBLY

7.1 Inserting and removing the router bit (Fig. 6)

 Press the spindle lock (7) in and turn the collet nut (6) until it enters the slot of the spindle

lock. Keep holding the spindle lock pressed in as you complete this procedure.

 Open the collet nut with the spanner.  Place the shaft of the router bit in the opening of the bit holder.  Tighten the collet nut until the router bit is firmly in place.  Loosen the collet nut again when you want to replace the bit.

If you wish to replace the bit during your work wait until the tool has come to a complete stop and the router bit has cooled down.

7.2 Mounting and setting the parallel guide (Fig. C)

The parallel guide is intended as an aid in routing small pieces. Assembling the parallel guide.

 Attach the rods of the parallel guide (18) to the frame (14) using the bolts (19).  Loosen the clamp screws (4) and insert the rods in the fittings (5).  Set the parallel guide to the desired distance.  Retighten the screws.

7.3 Mounting the stencil holder (Fig. D)

The stencil holder is intended as an aid in routing accordance to a pattern.  Mount the stencil holder (15) with the screws (17) and nut (20) to the router base (3).

7.4 Mounting the dust suction device (Fig. E)

Using the adapter for removing dust and pieces from routing.  Mount the adapter for the dust suction (16) by means of the screws (17) and nut (20) to

the router base (3).

 Place the nozzle of the dust suction in the adapter outlet.

For a clear view of the workpiece keep the adapter outlet behind the tool.

8 OPERATION

Always follow the safety instructions and observe the rules.

Hold the tool steady on the workpiece when turning the tool on or off. The router bit in the bit holder can damage the workpiece.  Hold the workpiece firmly or otherwise ensure that it does not slip under the machine

during use.

 Hold the machine firmly and move it evenly over the workpiece. Do not force the machine.

Always use bits that as yet show no signs of wear. Worn bits impair the efficiency of the machine.

 When you are finished using the machine always switch if off before you remove the plug

from the socket.

8.1 Depth stop (Fig. F): 2 Possible settings

POWX091 EN

8.1.1 Using the graduated scale

 Remove the clamp screw from the depth stop (9).  Remove the blocking handle (11) and lower the tool to the workpiece.  Attach and tighten the blocking handle again.  Set the desired depth (10) using the graduated scale (12).  Screw the clamp screw back on.

8.1.2 By means of the revolver depth stop  This device enables you quickly to select 2 depths.

This is done with the 3 adjustable screws located on the depth stop.

8.2 Starting and stopping

 To start press the on/off switch (I).  Set the speed using the speed adjustment wheel (13).  To hold still set the same switch to ‘0’.
