 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
accordance 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
person using only identical replacement parts. This will
ensure 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
support 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
irregularly, 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 cutting area and the
cutting disc. Hold the auxiliary handle with your second
hand. When both hands hold the machine, they cannot be
injured by the cutting disc.
 Never cut over metal objects, nails or screws. The
router bit can become damaged and lead to increased
vibrations.
 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 ex-
plosion. Penetrating a water line causes property damage
or may cause an electric shock.
 Do not use blunt or damaged router bits. Blunt or
damaged 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.
 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
authorised 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
socket elsewhere.
Products sold in AUS and NZ only: Use a residual current
device (RCD) with a rated residual current of 30 mA or
less.
