SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
Read all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric
shock, fi re and/or serious injury. The term "power tool" in all of the warnings listed below refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
To reduce the risk of injury, user must read instruction manual.
GENERAL SAFETY RULES
1) Work area safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of
fl ammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or
fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
2) Electrical safety
a) Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all codes and ordinances. Never remove the grounding prong or
modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adaptor plugs. Check with a qualifi ed elec-
trician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. If the tools should
electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry
electricity away from the user. Applicable only to Class I (grounded) tools.
b) Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than
the other.) This plug will fi t in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fi t
fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fi t, contact a qualifi ed electri-
cian to install a polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. Double insulation
eliminates the need for the three wire grounded power cord and grounded power supply
system. Applicable only to Class II (double insulated) tools.
c) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, rang-
es, and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or
grounded.
d) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
e) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power
tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled
cords increase the risk of electric shock. Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong
grounding-type plugs and 3-pole receptacles that accept the tool's plug.
f) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor
use. If an extension cord is to be used outdoors, it must be marked with the suffi x W-A or
W following the cord type designation. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the
risk of electric shock. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to
carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage
resulting in loss of power and overheating. The following table shows the correct size to use
depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier
gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
Minimum Gauge for Cord Sets
Volts Total Length of Cord in Feet
120V 0-25
Ampere Rating Gauge of wire in AWG units
From 0 to 6 amps 18
" 6 to 10 amps 18
" 10 to 12 amps 16
" 12 to 16 amps 14
3) Personal safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power
tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the infl uence of drugs, al-
cohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in
serious personal injury.
b) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and
gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in mov-
ing parts.
c) Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the switch is in the off-position before plugging in.
Carrying power tools with your fi nger on the switch or plugging in power tools that have the
switch on invites accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a
key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better
control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
f) Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as dust mask,
non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will
reduce personal injuries.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities,
ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of these devices can reduce
dust-related hazards. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool, may become haz-
ardous when used on another tool.
4) Power tool use and care
a) Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable
platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss
of control.
b) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The cor-
rect power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
c) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that
cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
d) Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, chang-
ing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk

ing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting
the power tool accidentally.
e) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with
the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in
the hands of untrained users.
f) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts and any other condition that may affect the power tools operation. If damaged, have
the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power
tools.
g) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
h) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance with these instructions
and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations differ-
ent from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualifi ed repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
ADDITIONAL SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
1. HOLD POWER TOOLS BY INSULATED GRIPPING SURFACES when performing an operation
where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a "live" wire will make
exposed metal parts of the tool"live" and shock the operator.
2. USE CLAMPS or other practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.
3. DISCONNECT TOOL FROM POWER SOURCE before making adjustments or changing bits.
4. TIGHTEN COLLET NUT securely to prevent the bit from slipping.
5. USE A CLAMP or some other device to hold the workpiece rigidly in position and clear the path of the tool
of obstructions.
6. PROVIDE CLEARANCE under workpiece for router bit when through-cutting.
7. CHECK TO SEE THAT THE CORD will not "hang up" during routing operation.
8. CLEAR THE ROUTER BIT AREA before starting motor.
9. MAINTAIN FIRM GRIP on router to resist starting torque.
10. KEEP HANDS CLEAR OF BIT when motor is running to prevent personal injury.
11. KEEP CUTTING PRESSURE CONSTANT. Do not overload motor.
12. LET THE MOTOR COME TO A COMPLETE STOP before putting the tool down.
13. NEVER TOUCH router bits after use. They may be extremely hot.
14. NEVER TIGHTEN COLLET NUT without a bit.
15. DO NOT USE ROUTER BITS with a diameter in excess of 2-1/2" at RPM above 13,000. Router bits
up to 3-1/2" in diameter can be used when speed control is set for 13,000 RPM or less.
16. ALWAYS KEEP CHIP SHIELD clean and in place.
17. AVOID "CLIMB-CUTTING" (see "Using The Router" section in this manual). "Climb-cutting" increases
the chance for loss of control resulting in possible personal injury.
18. DO NOT HAND-HOLD THE ROUTER IN AN UPSIDE-DOWN OR HORIZONTAL POSITION. The
motor can separate from the base if not properly attached according to the instructions.
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction
activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Some examples of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paints,
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber (CCA).
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your
exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such
as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
• Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction
activities. Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas with soap and water. Allowing dust to get
into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may promote absorption of harmful chemicals.
Use of this tool can generate and/or disburse dust, which may cause serious and perma-
nent respiratory or other injury. Always use NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection appropriate for the
dust exposure. Direct particles away from face and body.
Wear appropriate hearing protection during use. Under some conditions and duration of
use, noise from this product may contribute to hearing loss. The label on your tool may include the following
symbols.
SYMBOLS
The label on your tool may include the following symbols:
V ........... volts
Hz hertz
min ....... minutes
.. direct current
....... class II tool
./min ..... revolutions per minute
Do not operate your tool on a current on which the voltage is not within correct limits. Do
not operate tools rated A.C. only on D.C. current. To do so may seriously damage the tool.
Turn off and unplug the tool before making any adjustments or removing or installing
attachments or accessories. Be sure the switch is in the "OFF" position..
Use router bits with a diameter larger than 2-1/2" ONLY when the speed control is set
between 10,000 and 13,000 RPM. The maximum diameter bit is 3-1/2".
Disconnect tool from power source when preparing the router for use, making adjustments,
and when router is not in use.
INSTALLING THE BIT (1001 BASE)
To remove the motor unit from the base unit:
(a) Open the clamp (A) Fig. 1.
(b) While holding the base, turn the power unit COUNTER-CLOCKWISE until the lower pin (B) in the
motor housing is disengaged from groove in base.
(c) Lift the power unit free from the base unit.
2. Clean and insert the shank of the bit into the collet until the shank bottoms, then back it out approxi-
mately 1/16".
3. Lay the power unit on its side on a bench with the collet pointing AWAY from you.
4. Place one wrench on the flats of the chuck with the opposite end of the wrench resting on the bench
to your left (Fig. 2).
5. Place the other wrench on the collet and tighten COUNTER-CLOCKWISE. Tighten firmly.
6. To remove the bit, reverse the procedure.
Avoid possible damage to the collet. Never tighten the collet without a bit.
INSTALLING THE MOTOR
1. Open the clamp (A) Fig. 1 and set the power unit in the base unit.
2. Align the lower pin of the power unit (B) Fig. 1 with the groove in the base.
3. Rotate the power unit CLOCKWISE into the base until the upper guide pins are set in the groove of
the base.
4. Close the clamp.
ADJUSTING THE DEPTH OF CUT
1. Open the clamp (A) Fig. 3.
2. Hold the base (E) and turn the power unit (F) Fig. 3 counter-clockwise until the tip of the bit is above the
bottom of the base.
3. Set the tool on a flat surface.
4. Turn the power unit (F) Fig. 3 clockwise until the bit touches the work.
5. Close the clamp (A) Fig. 3.
6. Rotate the depth adjusting ring (B) Fig. 3 until the zero-line (C) is opposite the index line (D) on the
housing.
7. Open the clamp (A) Fig. 3.
8. Tip the router so that the bit is clear of the work surface. Turn the power unit (F) Fig. 3 clockwise until
the index line (D) on the motor housing reaches the desired depth indicated on the ring.
9. Close the clamp (A) Fig. 3.
NOTE: Setting the index line to 1/4" on the ring means the cutting edge of the bit is exposed 1/4" below
the base.
ADJUSTING THE SUB-BASE ALIGNMENT (PLUNGE BASE)
Applications using a template guide require the bit to be centered in the guide. This, in turn, requires the
center hole in the sub-base to be in line with the collet of the motor unit. Your model has an adjustable sub-
base that has been aligned at the factory. The fixed-base router comes with the large hole.
Turn off and unplug the tool before making any adjustments or removing or installing attach-
ments or accessories. Be sure the switch is in the "OFF" position.
1. Loosen the sub-base mounting screws (C) Fig. 4 just enough to allow the sub-base (D) to move.
2. Open the clamp and adjust the power unit so that the collet nut (B) engages the center hole in the
sub-base (D). Allow the sub-base to center itself on the collet nut. Close the clamp.
3. Tighten the sub-base mounting screws (C) Fig. 4 securely.
Be sure power switch is in "OFF" position and tool is disconnected from power source to
avoid accidental starting of motor which could result in injury.
