OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
To remove the cutter bit
a. Move the ON/OFF switch (A) to "O" position to turn the tool off. Remove the battery.
b. Open the motor clamp (D) to remove the fixed base (C).
c. Set the router upside down on its top cap, with the collet pointing up.
d. Press the spindle-lock button (G) to lock the spindle shaft.
e. Place the open-end wrench (Q) on the collet/nut, turn the collet/nut counterclockwise with
the wrench to loosen the collet, then remove the cutter bit.
4. To Adjust the Cutting Depth
a. Move the ON/OFF switch (A) to "O" position to
turn the tool off. Remove the battery.
b. Place the tool on a flat, level surface, upside
down on its top cap, with the collet pointing up.
c. Loosen the motor clamp (D).
d. With the cutter bit already installed, turn the
adjustment dial (E) to lower the bit to the
desired cutting depth.
e. Once the cutting depth is set, tighten the motor
clamp securely.
f. Always make a trial cut in scrap material to
determine the cutting depth setting.
NOTICE: If the tool is not secured after closing the
lock lever, tighten the hex nut, and then close the lock lever.
NOTICE: Making a single deep cut is never advisable. Smaller diameter cutter bits are easily
broken by too much lateral thrust and torque. Larger cutter bits will cause a rough cut and will
be difficult to guide and control. For these reasons, do not exceed 1/8 in. cutting depth in a
single pass.
Deep Cuts
a. Determining the proper cutting depth (for each pass) should always be based on the
material, the size and type of cutter bit, and the power of the motor.
b. Always make several progressively deeper cuts. Start at one depth and then make several
passes, increasing the cutting depth each time, until the desired depth is reached.
c. Making a cut that is too deep will put stress on the motor and the cutter bit, and it may burn
the workpiece and dull the cutter bit. It could also "grab" too much of the workpiece and
result in loss of control of the router, causing a serious accident.
d. To be certain that the depth settings are as desired, always make test cuts in scrap
material similar to the workpiece before beginning the final cut.
e. Remember, knowing the right depth for each cut comes with routing experience.
