3. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR
MACHINE OPERATION
Before using the router, carefully read
the GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
LEAFLET included with the machine
documentation.
- When changing tools or carrying out any other ope-
ration near the cutting head, take your hand from the
on/off lever and unplug the machine from the mains.
- Use safety goggles when working with the router.
- Always guide the router with both hands, using the
machine's two handles.
- When you have finished working, disconnect the motor
and release the base before leaving the router.
- Always place the router on its base on a flat, clean
surface.
- Always start the router by using the main on/off lever.
- Make sure that the router cannot be accidentally
knocked over.
- Always use cutter bits with the appropriate shaft diame-
ter for the chuck collet and the router speed to be used.
- The specifications of the cutter bits in the VIRUTEX
range are especially suitable for use with this router;
we recommend using cutter bits from the wide VIRUTEX
range or bits with the same specifications.
4. STANDARD EQUIPMENT
The box contains the following items:
- FR356Z router
- A/f service key: 11
- A/f service key: 19
- Lateral fence assembly
- Dust collector connection
- Operating instructions and miscellaneous documen-
tation.
5. STARTING UP THE MACHINE
To start the machine, press button A forward (Fig. 1) to
the on position. To stop the machine, simply press the
back of the switch and it will return to the off position.
Always make sure that the router is not
in contact with the part being worked
before operating the switch. Once the
machine has reached its maximum speed,
bring the machine into contact with the
material, and stop the machine once it
is completely clear of the part. This will
improve the quality of the work.
6. ADJUSTING THE SPEED 14,000 - 27,000
The surface router model FR356Z has an electronic speed
regulator for adjusting the motor speed, according to
the size of cut and the hardness of the material used.
This ensures a better finish and enhances the machine
performance. To increase or reduce the machine speed,
turn the adjustment knob B (Fig. 6) to the right or left,
depending on the task being carried out. There are six
reference numbers to assist in setting the required speed.
7. FITTING THE CUTTING TOOLS
Make sure that the router is disconnected
from the mains before attaching the
cutting tool.
Make sure you place the chuck collet in
the correct position, otherwise vibrations
may occur or the part itself my come
loose (Fig. 9).
To change the bit (Fig. 4), block the motor shaft using
key C, loosen the nut using key D and remove the bit.
Insert the new bit as far as it will go in the housing and
tighten it using the service keys.
When using the machine as a grinder
(see section 15), you should use routing
bits for free-hand work or abrasive bits
with a handle.
Check that the collet diameter matches
the bit stem.
8. BLOCKING OF THE BASE
The base can be locked in any position using knob L (Fig.
1). When knob is loosened, the base will automatically
return to its highest position due to the action of the
springs incorporated in the columns.
After all jobs, turn the switch to the off
position and release the base using the
locking knob before leaving the router
on a flat surface.
9. ADJUSTING THE DEPTH
ADJUSTING THE DEPTH. The depth is adjusted by using
the incorporated rack and pinion depth-adjustment
mechanism.
With the cutter bit face flush against the wood surface,
the penetration depth may be adjusted up to 60 mm.
