Additional Safety for Routers
• Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only, because the cutter may
contact its own cord. Cutting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the power
tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
• Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable
platform. Holding the work by your hand or against the body leaves it unstable and may
lead to loss of control.
• If the replacement of the supply cord is necessary, this has to be done by the
manufacturer or his agent in order to avoid a safety hazard.
• It is strongly recommended that the tool always be supplied via a residual current
device with a rated residual current of 30 mA or less.
a) Use safety equipment including safety goggles or shield, ear protection, dust mask and
protective clothing including safety gloves
b) Cloths, cord, string etc should never be left around the work area
c) Ensure the mains supply voltage is the same as the tool rating plate voltage
d) Ensure any cable extensions used with this tool are in a safe electrical condition, and
have the correct ampere rating for the tool
e) Completely unwind cable drum extensions to avoid potential overheating
f) Use appropriate detectors to determine if utility cables or pipes are below the surface
of the work area. Consult utility companies for assistance if necessary. Contact with
electric cables can lead to electric shock and fire. Damaging a gas pipe can lead to
explosion. Contact with water lines can lead to major property damage
g) Ensure embedded objects such as nails and screws have been removed from the
workpiece before commencing operation
h) Handle router bits with care as they can be extremely sharp
i) Before use, check the bit carefully for signs of damage or cracks. Replace damaged or
cracked bits immediately
j) Ensure router cutters/bits are sharp and maintained correctly. Dull cutting edges can
lead to uncontrolled situations including stalling, increased heat and possible injury
k) ALWAYS use both handles and maintain a firm grip on the router before proceeding
with any work
l) Keep handles and gripping surfaces dry, clean and free of oil and grease to ensure the
tool can be securely held in use
m) Before using the tool to make a cut, switch on and let it run for a while. Vibration could
indicate an improperly installed bit
n) Take notice of the direction of rotation of the bit and the direction of feed
o) Keep your hands away from the routing area and router bit cutter. Hold the auxiliary
handle or an insulated gripping surface with your second hand
p) NEVER start the router while the cutter is touching the workpiece
q) Ensure the plunge spring is always fitted when using hand-held
r) Ensure the cutter has completely stopped before plunging to the collet lock position
s) The maximum speed of the router bit/cutter must be at least as high as the maximum
speed of the power tool
t) Parts of the router bits may become hot during operation. Do not handle immediately
after use to avoid risk of burns
u) Do not allow parts to come into contact with combustible materials
v) The shank size of the router cutter/bit must be matched to the exact same size collet
fitted to the router. Incorrectly fitted router cutter/bits will rotate irregularly and have
increased vibration that could lead to loss of control
w) DO NOT press the spindle lock button, or attempt to switch the tool into bit change
mode while the router is operating
x) Keep pressure constant while cutting into the workpiece, allowing the router bit cutter
to dictate the speed of cut. DO NOT force the tool and overload the motor
y) Ensure rating labels and safety warnings on the tool remain clear to read and are replaced
if marked or damaged
z) When operating the router, be prepared for the router bit cutter stalling in the
workpiece and causing loss of control. Always ensure the router is firmly held and the
on/off switch is immediately released in such circumstances
• After switching on the router, check the router bit is rotating evenly (not 'wobbling')
and there is no additional vibration due to the router bit being incorrectly fitted.
Operating the router with an incorrectly fitted router bit can lead to loss of control and
severe injury
• EXTREME care must be taken when using cutters with a diameter greater 50mm (2").
Use very slow feed rates and/or multiple shallow cuts to avoid overloading the motor
• ALWAYS switch off and wait until the bit has come to a complete standstill before
removing the machine from the workpiece
• Disconnect from the power supply before carrying out any adjustment, servicing or
maintenance
• Even when this tool is used as prescribed it is not possible to eliminate all residual
risk factors. If you are in any doubt as to safe use of this tool, do not use it

WARNING!
WARNING: Dust generated by using power tools can be toxic. Some materials may be
chemically treated or coated and be a toxic hazard. Some natural and composite materials
may contain toxic chemicals. Some older paints may contain lead and other chemicals. Avoid
prolonged exposure to dust generated from operating a router. DO NOT allow dust to get onto
skin or eyes and do not allow the dust to enter your mouth to prevent absorption of harmful
chemicals. Where possible, work in a well-ventilated area. Use a suitable dust mask and dust
extraction system where possible. Where there is a higher frequency of exposure, it is more
critical that all safety precautions are followed and a higher level of personal
protection is used.
