Working With The Electric Power Tool - Festool MFK 700 EQ Manual De Instrucciones Original

A Festool mobile dust extractor with an extrac­
tion hose diameter of 1-1/16" (27 mm) should
be connected at the extractor connector [1-10].
CAUTION! If an anti-static suction hose is not
used, static charge may occur. The user may
receive an electric shock and the electronics of
the power tool may be damaged.
9 Working with the electric
power tool
When working on the machine, observe
all of the safety warnings that are listed
at the start as well as the following rules:
– Always secure the workpiece in such a way
that it cannot move during machining.
– Hold the machine with two hands – one on
the motor housing and one on the gear
head or on the additional handle [1-6] – to
ensure safe guidance.
– Adjust the feed speed to the router diame­
ter and the material. Work with a constant
feed speed.
– Only guide the power tool towards the
workpiece when it is switched on.
Wait until the power tool has come to a
–
complete halt before placing it down. The
insertion tool can get caught and lead to a
loss of control of the power tool.
– Make sure that the router table is firmly
tightened before routing.
– When routing, ensure that the power tool's
feed direction is the same as the tool's cut­
ting direction.
9.1 Guide types
Routing with ball bearing guide [6]
When routing with cutters with a ball
bearing guide the ball bearing brake
must be inserted in the edge router. The edge
router is guided so that the ball bearing guide
of the cutter rolls between the brake and edg­
ing.
Adapt height of the brake to the height of the
ball bearing guide - 2 stages [7].

Routing with plane cutter [8]
The ball bearing brake is not used when routing
with plane cutters. Guide edge router so that
the stop of the router table is at the edging - al­
so possible at diagonal edges.
