• Changingcollet

! switch off the tool and disconnect the plug

! ensure that collet shaft is perfectly clean

- loosen collet nut B 2 or 3 turns

- tap collet nut B with wrench C

- removecolletnutBandcollet(lockshaft)

- turn tool upside down

- insert new collet in collet shaft

- mount collet nut B (lock shaft)

! never tighten collet nut, if there is no router bit in

collet; collet may be damaged

• Adjustingroutingdepth6

! switch off the tool and disconnect the plug

- ensure that the small rod within depth gauge D

extendsapproximately3mm(usene-adjustment

knob E) 6a

- rotate turret F so that its highest position clicks into

place right under depth gauge D (for zeroing) 6b

- loosen knob G so that depth gauge D drops onto

depth stop turret F 6b

- place tool on workpiece

- loosenlockingleverH6c

- push tool down until router bit is in contact with

workpiece 6d

- tightenlockingleverH6e

- routingdepthisnowsetto0mm(notevalueas

indicated on depth scale)

- raise depth gauge D as many mm as the desired

routingdepth,andtightenknobG6f

- loosenlockingleverHandguidethetoolbackupagain

- usene-adjustmentknobEforsettingtherouting

depth more precisely (0-10 mm)

- with depth stop turret F the routing depth can be

increasedby5or10mmrespectively

! re-adjust the routing depth after having changed

router bits

• Speedcontrol7

For optimal routing results on different materials

- select routing speed with wheel J (also while tool

is running)

- use table 8 as reference for determining the right

routing speed

- beforestartingajob,ndtheoptimalspeedby

testing out on spare material

! after longer periods of working at low speed,

allow the tool to cool down by running it for

approximately 3 minutes at high speed with no load

• Dustsuction9

- connectvacuumcleanertoextensionK

! never let the vacuum cleaner hose interfere with

the routing operation

• Operatingthetool0

! always hold the tool firmly with both hands

! while working, always hold the tool at the

grey-coloured grip area(s)

- place tool on workpiece

- switch on the tool by pulling trigger L

- lock the switch for continuous use by pressing

button M

! before the router bit reaches the workpiece,

the tool should run at full speed

- loosenlockingleverHandslowlypushtooldown

until depth gauge D reaches depth stop turret F

- tightenlockingleverH

- carry out the routing procedure with uniform feed rate

- usethetoolwithitsbase-plateatontheworkpiece

- asageneralruleoneshouldpullthetool,notpushit

- unlock the switch by pulling again trigger L and then

releasing it

- afternishingthework,loosenleverHandguidethe

tool back into the upper starting position

• Handlepositionadjustment!

- unlock both handles by sliding knobs N to the outer

position and hold them while turning the handles into

the desired position

- release both knobs N until they snap-lock (4

positions possible)

• Properguiding@

- keep in mind that router bit turns clockwise

- guidetoolsothatbitturnsintotheworkpiece,not

away from it

• MountingadapterplateP(forcopyingwithatemplate)#

• MountingripfenceQ$

- insert rip fence rods V through holes in base-plate R

- slide rip fence to desired width and fasten it with

2 knobs W

• Usingtheripfenceasacircularguide%

! reverse rip fence first

- fasten pin X with wing nut Y as illustrated

- insert rods V into base-plate R

- pierce pin X into marked centre of circular arc

- fasten rip fence with 2 knobs W

- guide the tool with consistent feed across the workpiece

• UsingtheripfencewithcurvebufferZ^

- mountcurvebufferZ(withguiderollermounted)

as illustrated

- guide the tool along the workpiece edge with light

sideward pressure
