used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal inju-

ries.

 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 en-

ergising power tools that have the switch on invites acci-

dents.

 Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning

the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a ro-

tating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.

 Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at

all times. This enables better control of the power tool in

unexpected situations.

 Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewel-

lery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from

moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be

caught in moving parts.

 If devices are provided for the connection of dust ex-

traction and collection facilities, ensure these are con-

nected and properly used. Use of dust collection can re-

duce dust-related hazards.

Power tool use and care

 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.

 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.

 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.

 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.

 Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or bind-

ing 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.

 Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained

cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind

and are easier to control.

 Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in ac-

cordance 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

 Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair per-

son using only identical replacement parts. This will en-

sure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Safety Warnings for Routers

 Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, be-

cause 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.

 Use clamps or another practical way to secure and sup-

port 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.

 The allowable speed of the router bit must be at least as

high as the maximum speed listed on the power tool.

Accessories that rotate faster than permitted can be de-

stroyed.

 Router bits or other accessories must fit exactly in the

tool holder (collet) of your machine. Routing bits that do

not fit precisely in the tool holder of the machine rotate ir-

regularly, vibrate heavily and can lead to loss of control.

 Apply the machine to the workpiece only when

switched on. Otherwise there is danger of kickback when

the cutting tool jams in the workpiece.

 Keep your hands away from the routing area and the

router bit. Hold the auxiliary handle or the motor hous-

ing with your second hand. When both hands hold the

machine, they cannot be injured by the router bit.

 Never cut over metal objects, nails or screws. The rout-

er bit can become damaged and lead to increased vibra-

tions.

 Use suitable detectors to determine if utility lines are

hidden in the work area or call the local utility company

for assistance. Contact with electric lines can lead to fire

and electric shock. Damaging a gas line can lead to explo-

sion. Penetrating a water line causes property damage or

may cause an electric shock.

 Do not use blunt or damaged router bits. Blunt or dam-

aged router bits cause increased friction, can become

jammed and lead to imbalance.

 When working with the machine, always hold it firmly

with both hands and provide for a secure stance. The

power tool is guided more secure with both hands.

 Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with clamp-

ing devices or in a vice is held more secure than by hand.

 Always wait until the machine has come to a complete

stop before placing it down. The tool insert can jam and

lead to loss of control over the power tool.

Products sold in GB only: Your product is fitted with a

BS 1363/A approved electric plug with internal fuse (ASTA

approved to BS 1362).

If the plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be

cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place by an author-

ised customer service agent. The replacement plug should

have the same fuse rating as the original plug.

The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible

shock hazard and should never be inserted into a mains sock-

et elsewhere.

Products sold in AUS and NZ only: Use a residual current de-

vice (RCD) with a rated residual current of 30 mA or less.
