Safety Points

1. Disconnect power tool and attachment from power supply
when not in use, before servicing, when making adjustments
and when changing accessories such as cutters. Ensure
switch is in “off” position. Always ensure cutter has stopped
rotating.

2. Read and understand instructions supplied with power tool,
attachment and cutter.

3. Current Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for eye, ear
and respiratory protection must be worn. Keep hands, hair
and clothes clear of the cutter.

4. Before each use check cutter is sharp and free from damage.
Do not use if cutter is dull, broken or cracked or if any
damage is noticeable or suspected.

5. The maximum speed (nmax) marked on tool or in instructions
or on packaging shall not be exceeded. Where stated, the
speed range should be adhered to.

6. Insert the shank into the router collet at least all the way to
the marked line indicated on the shank. This ensures at least
3/4 of shank length is held in collet. Ensure clamping surfaces
are clean.

7. Check all fixing and fastening nuts, bolts and screws on
power tool, attachment and cutting tools are correctly
assembled, tight and to correct torque setting before use.

8. Ensure all visors, guards and dust extraction is fitted.

9. The direction of routing must always be opposite to the
cutter’s direction of rotation.

10. Do not switch power tool on with the cutter touching the
workpiece.

11. Trial cuts should be made in waste material before starting
any project.

12. Repair of tools is only allowed according to tool
manufacturers instructions.

13. Do not take deep cuts in one pass, take several shallow
passes to reduce the side load applied to the cutter.
