Makita RP0910 Manual De Instrucciones página 8

NOTE:
• Make sure that the tool raises automatically when
the lock knob is loosened. The position of the bit
must be higher than the tool base.
• Also, make sure that the dust guide is installed
properly.
• Moving the tool forward too fast may cause a poor
quality of cut, or damage to the bit or motor. Moving
the tool forward too slowly may burn and mar the
cut. The proper feed rate will depend on the bit size,
the kind of workpiece and depth of cut. Before
beginning the cut on the actual workpiece, it is
advisable to make a sample cut on a piece of scrap
lumber. This will show exactly how the cut will look
as well as enable you to check dimensions.
• When using the straight guide, be sure to install it on
the right side in the feed direction. This will help to
keep it flush with the side of the workpiece.
Straight guide (Fig. 9, 10 & 11)
The straight guide is effectively used for straight cuts
when chamfering or grooving.
To install the straight guide, insert the guide bars into
the holes in the tool base. Adjust the distance
between the bit and the straight guide. At the desired
distance, tighten the lock screw to secure the straight
guide in place.
When cutting, move the tool with the straight guide
flush with the side of the workpiece.
If the distance between the side of the workpiece and
the cutting position is too wide for the straight guide,
the straight guide cannot be used. In this case, firmly
clamp a straight board to the workpiece and use it as
a guide against the router base.
Templet guide (optional accessory)
(Fig. 12, 13 & 14)
The templet guide provides a sleeve through which
the bit passes, allowing use of the router with templet
patterns.
To install the templet guide, insert the templet guide
into the tool base and then tighten the screws.
Secure the templet to the workpiece. Place the tool on
the templet and move the tool with the templet guide
sliding along the side of the templet.
Connecting to Makita vacuum cleaner or dust
collector (Fig. 15)
Cleaner operations can be performed by connecting
the router to Makita vacuum cleaner or dust collector.
Insert the nozzle assembly and the dust nozzle
assembly into the router. Also, the dust nozzle assem-
bly can be inserted into the router base directly in
accordance with the operation.
When connecting to Makita vacuum cleaner (Model
406/431), an optional hose 28 mm in inner diameter is
necessary.
When connecting to Makita dust collector (Model
420S), the optional hose is not necessary . You can
connect the router directly to the hose of the dust
collector.
