5.2 Safety guard port assembly (Fig. 3/Item 13)
Fit the safety guard (13) as shown in Fig. 3.
5.3 Parallel stop assembly (Fig. 4/Item 21)
n Push the guide shafts (a) of the parallel stop (21)
into the holes (b) on the routing shoe (2).
n Set the parallel stop (21) to the required
dimension and secure it in place with the wing
screws (3).
5.4 Compass point assembly (Fig. 5/Item 24)
n You can cut circular areas using the compass
point (24).
n Secure the compass point (24) to the parallel
stop (21) as shown in the figure. Now fit the
parallel stop (21) with the compass point (24) to
the router. The assembly work is to be carried
out as described in point 5.3, but the parallel stop
(21) must be fitted at an angle of 180° so that the
compass point (24) points downwards (Fig. 5).
n Set the required radius between the compass
point (24) and cutter.
n Position the compass point (24) in the center of
the circle you wish to route.
5.5 Guide sleeve assembly (Fig. 6-7/Item 25)
n Secure the guide sleeve (25) to the routing shoe
(2) using the two countersunk screws (f).
n The guide sleeve (25) is guided along the
template (c) using the guide ring (b).
n The workpiece (d) must be larger by the
difference of “external edge of guide ring” and
“external edge of router” (e) to obtain a precise
copy.
5.6 Fitting / Removing the cutting tool (Fig. 8-11)
Important. Pull out the power plug first.
Important. After working with the router, the
cutting tool will remain very hot for a relatively
long time.
Important. Cutters are very sharp. Wear
protective gloves at all times when handling
cutting tools.
n Cutters with a shaft diameter of 6 mm and 8 mm
may be fitted to this router. Most cutters are
available in both sizes.
n You can used cutters made of the following
materials:
- HSS – Suitable for machining softwood
- TCT – Suitable for machining hardwood,
particle board, plastic and aluminum.
n Select the appropriate cutting tool for the job in
hand.
n When using the cutters for the first time:
Remove the plastic packaging from the cutter
heads.
n Clean the nut, clamp and shaft of the cutter
before fitting it.
n Press the spindle lock (12) and allow the spindle
to engage by turning it at the same time.
n Undo the clamp nut (10) using the open-ended
spanner (22).
n If necessary take the cutter you wish to remove
out of the clamp (23).
n Select the appropriate cutting tool for the job in
hand.
n Select the appropriate clamp for the cutter (23).
n Now fit the clamp (23) and nut (10) into the
cutting spindle.
n Guide the cutter shaft into the clamp.
n Press and hold the spindle lock (12).
n Tighten the clamp nut (10) using the open-ended
spanner (22).
n The cutter must be inserted at least 20 mm into
the clamp (23).
n Before you start the electric router, check to
ensure that the cutting tool is secure and runs
smoothly.
5.7 Adjusting the end stops (Fig. 14/Item 15)
The height of the end stops (15) can be adjusted as
required. To do this, undo the lock nut on the end
stop (15) and turn it to the required stop height using
a screwdriver.
Important. Remove the setting and assembly
tools before starting the machine
6. Operation
n Never use a low quality or damaged cutter. Use
only cutting tools with a shaft diameter of 6 mm
or 8 mm. The cutters must also be designed for
the appropriate idling speed.
n Secure the workpiece so that it cannot be thrown
through the air as you work on it. Use clamps or
a vise.
n Always guide the power cable away from the
back of the tool.
n Never cut over metal parts, screws, nails etc.
6.1 ON/OFF switch (Fig. 17/Item 4)
