SPECIFIC SAFETY WARNINGS FOR THE ROUTER TABLE

For your own safety, read owner's manual before using Router or Router Table.
Always wear eye protection.
Lift router table only by the table edges. Lifting table by any other surface could cause
personal injury.
Do not use the router table until all assembly and installation steps have been
completed. Prior to each use, verify that fasteners and the router clamps are tight. A
loose table or router is unstable and may shift in use, resulting in property damage or serious
personal injury.
Disconnect the router from the power supply before installing router into the table,
making adjustments, changing accessories, removing the router from the table,
performing maintenance, or storing the tool. Such precautionary safety measures reduce
the risk of unintentional tool operation.
Do not plug router motor power cord into standard wall outlet. Always plug router cord
into the router table switch box. Power tool switches and controls need to be within your
reach in emergency situations.
Do not permit fingers to touch terminals on the plug when inserting or removing plug
from the outlet. Risk of Electric Shock.
Before connecting router or vacuum to router table switch box, ensure that the router
or vacuum switch is off and that the router table switch box is unplugged. Such
precautionary safety measures reduce the risk of unintentional tool operation.
Before using the router table, verify that the router is securely clamped to the router
table base. While working, periodically check the router base fastener clamping
tightness. Vibrations from cutting operations can cause router motor clamps to loosen and the
router motor may fall from the table.
Before starting to work, ensure that the power cords from the router accessories, the
switch box, and the extension cord do not and cannot come in contact with the router
or any moving parts of the router. Such precautionary safety measures reduce the risk of
injury due to loss of control.
Do not use the router table without the overhead guard unless required by a particular
cutting operation. Replace the guard immediately after completion of cutting operation.
Remove all dust, chips, and any other foreign particles that can affect its function. The
guard will aid in keeping hands from unintended contact with the rotating bit.
Do not use bits that have a cutting diameter that exceeds the clearance hole in the
tabletop insert plate or insert rings. The bit could contact the insert plate or insert ring,
throwing fragments.
Never use dull or damaged bits. Damaged bits can snap during use. Dull bits require more
force to push the workpiece, possibly causing the bit to break or the material to kick back.
Handle sharp bits with care. Such precautionary safety measures reduce risk of injury.
Do not alter insert ring or insert plate bit hole. Match the cutting diameter of the bit to
the inner diameter of the insert ring or insert plate bit hole such that the difference is
no less than 1/16" (1.6mm) on a side. Insert rings are meant to reduce the gap between the
cutting diameter of the bit and the table so that workpieces maintain full support of the table
while routing.
Install bit in accordance with instructions in the router manual. Securely clamp the
router bit in the collet chuck before making any cuts. Securing the bit before cutting
reduces the risk of the bit becoming loose during operation.
