! ensure that collet size (6 mm, 8 mm, 1/4")
corresponds with shaft size of router bit
- turn tool upside down
- lock shaft by pushing shaft lock A (rotate collet nut B,
if necessary) and hold it while you
FOR MOUNTING:
- loosen collet nut B with wrench C
- insert bit 3/4 in collet
- tighten collet nut fi rmly with wrench C
FOR REMOVING:
- loosen collet nut B with wrench C
- remove bit
- release shaft lock A
! for loosening router bit it may be necessary to tap
collet nut with wrench 5
! never tighten collet nut, if there is no router bit in
collet; collet may be damaged
• Changing collet
! switch off the tool and disconnect the plug
! ensure that collet shaft is perfectly clean
- loosen collet nut B 2 or 3 turns
- tap collet nut B with wrench C
- remove collet nut B and collet (lock shaft)
- turn tool upside down
- insert new collet in collet shaft
- mount collet nut B (lock shaft)
! never tighten collet nut, if there is no router bit in
collet; collet may be damaged
• Adjusting routing depth/depth stop turret 6
EXAMPLE
Desired routing depths 7 mm (X), 11 mm (Y) and
17 mm (Z)
STEP 1:
- lift lever D
- loosen knob E so that depth gauge F moves freely
- push tool down until router bit is in contact with
workpiece
- push lever D back
- rotate turret G so that depth stop X clicks into place
right under depth gauge F
- note value as indicated on depth scale (e.g. 35 mm)
(for zeroing)
STEP 2:
- defi ne difference among desired routing depths; use
lowest routing depth as reference (∆ X->Y = 4 mm;
∆ X->Z = 10 mm)
- rotate turret G so that depth stop Z clicks into place
right under depth gauge F
- adjust depth stop Z (loosen nut, turn screw so that
depth gauge F reaches value noted minus 10 mm =
25 mm, tighten nut fi rmly)
- rotate turret G so that depth stop Y clicks into place
right under depth gauge F
- adjust depth stop Y (loosen nut, turn screw so that
depth gauge F reaches value noted minus 4 mm =
31 mm, tighten nut fi rmly)
- rotate turret G so that depth stop X clicks into place
right under depth gauge F
STEP 3:
- raise depth gauge F to desired routing depth plus
value noted earlier (7 + 35 = 42 mm)
- tighten knob E
- lift lever D
When repeated successive cuts at different depths are
not required, skip step 2
! always check the adjusted routing depth on a
piece of scrap wood
• Speed control 7
For optimal routing results on different materials
- select routing speed with wheel H (also while tool is
running)
- use table 8 as reference for determining the right
routing speed
- before starting a job, fi nd the optimal speed by
testing out on spare material
! after longer periods of working at low speed,
allow the tool to cool down by running it for
approximately 3 minutes at high speed with no
load
• Mounting adapter plate (for copying with a template) 9
• Mounting/removing of vacuum cleaner adapter J 0
• Operating the tool !
- adjust routing depth
! always hold the tool firmly with both hands
! while working, always hold the tool at the grey-
coloured grip area(s) @
- place tool on workpiece
- switch on tool by fi rst pressing knob K (= safety
switch which cannot be locked) and then pulling
trigger L
! before the router bit reaches the workpiece, the
tool should run at full speed
- lift lever D and slowly push tool down until depth
gauge F reaches depth stop X/Y/Z
- push lever D back
- carry out the routing procedure with uniform feed
rate
- use the tool with its base-plate fl at on the workpiece
- as a general rule one should pull the tool, not push it
- after fi nishing the work, lift lever D and guide the tool
back into the upper starting position
- switch off the tool by releasing trigger L
• Proper guiding #
- keep in mind that router bit turns clockwise
- guide tool so that bit turns into the workpiece, not
away from it
• Mounting rip fence M $
- assemble rip fence as illustrated
- insert rip fence rods Q through holes in base-plate N
- slide rip fence to desired width and fasten it with 2
knobs R
• Using the rip fence as a circular guide %
! reverse rip fence first
- fasten pin S with wing nut T as illustrated
- insert rods Q into base-plate N
- pierce pin S into marked centre of circular arc
