Prior to operation:
• Check that the cutter is correctly installed in
the collet.
• Set the cutting depth.
• Connect a dust extractor.
• Make sure the plunge limiter is always locked
before switching on.
Switching on and off (fig. A & G)
• On: pull the switch (1) up.
• Off: press the switch (1) down.
Loosen the plunge limiter and allow the
router carriage to regain its rest position
before switching off.
Using the guide bushes (fig. J)
• Secure the template to the workpiece using end
clamps.
• Select and install an appropriate guide bush (31).
• Subtract the diameter of the cutter from the
outside diameter of the guide bush and divide
by 2. This is the difference between template and
workpiece.
If the workpiece is not thick enough,
place it on a piece of waste wood.
Guiding off a batten
Where an edge guide cannot be used, it is also
possible to guide the router along a batten clamped
across the workpiece (with an overhang at both ends).
Freehand routing
Your router can also be used without any sort of
guide, e.g. for signwriting or creative work.
Make shallow cuts only!
Use cutters with a max. diameter of 6 mm.
Routing with pilot cutters (fig. B)
Where a parallel guide or guide bush are
inappropriate, it is possible to use pilot cutters (24)
for cutting shaped edges.
Consult your dealer for further information on the
appropriate accessories.
