3. Using the Spanner (26) provided, loosen the Collet by turning it anti-clockwise
until removal
4. Select the desired Collet, and install into the Chuck (2) by screwing the Collet in clockwise
5. Insert the router cutter into the Collet ensuring that at least 20mm or half
of the shaft (whichever is greater) is inserted into the Collet, then use the
Spanner to turn the Collet slightly, allowing the collet lock to engage (Image
C). Once engaged, turn the spanner clockwise to tighten the cutter
6. Return the router to a normal operating depth. This will disengage the collet lock and
release the retracting switch shutter, enabling access to the On/Off Power Switch (8)
Dust extraction port
Note: The Triton Router is equipped with a Dust Extraction Port (15) for chip extraction above
the cut. The Dust Extraction Port accepts 38mm (1½") O.D. hose, supplied with the Triton Dust
Collector (DCA300).
• The dust extraction hose screws into position via a left-hand thread (anti-clockwise)
(Image D)
Optional chip collector accessory
• An optional Dust Chute for effective chip extraction alongside the cut zone is available
through your local Triton retailer. It can be connected to any 38mm (1-½") O.D. hose

Extended baseplate & fence installation
1. Locate the two Baseplate Mounting Knobs (13) and loosen them completely. This permits
the mounting studs to engage the router securing holes on the Extended Baseplate (28)
2. Turn both the plunge router and the Extended Baseplate upside down
3. Press the Baseplate Mounting Knobs on the plunge router inwards, to expose the
mounting studs
4. Align the mounting studs with the router securing holes on the Extended Baseplate, and
slide into the keyhole slots (Image K)
Note: The orientation of the Extended Baseplate depends on where the support is required. For
edge work, locate the On/Off Power Switch (8) on the short overhang side of the base
5. Tighten the Baseplate Mounting Knobs on the plunge router firmly to secure the plunge
router to the Extended Baseplate
6. To fit the Fence (23) loosen the fence knobs, and slide the Fence along the tracks on the
Extended Baseplate (Image L). Lock at the required setting by tightening both fence knobs
Note: When routing trenches at distance from an edge, fit the Fence to the long end of the
Extended Baseplate.
Note: When performing edge work with a non-bearing guided cutter, fit the Fence to the short
end of the baseplate (Image J).
Note: If using a very large diameter cutter it may be necessary to fix wooden blocks to the
fence faces via the screw holes, to ensure the cutter does not contact the Fence.
Operation
WARNING: ALWAYS wear eye protection, adequate respiratory and hearing
protection, as well as suitable gloves, when working with this tool.
Switching ON & OFF
Note: When the router is connected to the power source, the On/Off
Power Switch (8) will illuminate in both 'On' and 'Off' positions.
Note: The Retracting Power Switch Cover (7) prevents accidental starting of the
router. It must be retracted before the router can be switched on. The Retracting
Power Switch Cover will remain open until the router is switched off.
1. Ensure that the plunge router is at the maximum extension of its travel, and that
the cutter will not conflict with any foreign objects when it is powered on
2. Connect the power cord to the mains, and slide the Retracting Power
Switch Cover back to reveal the On/Off Power Switch
3. Press the On/Off Power Switch in the 'I' position to turn the plunge router ON.
Whilst the On/Off Power Switch is in this position, the Retracting Power Switch
Cover will be prevented from re-covering the On/Off Power Switch
4. To turn OFF, press the On/Off Power Switch in the 'O' position. The
Retracting Power Switch Cover will slide back to its original position
Variable speed control
Note: Router speed settings are not critical. Generally, the highest speed that
does not cause burn marks on the workpiece should be used. Where stated,
always follow the cutter manufacturers' maximum speed limitations.
• Operating at reduced speed increases the risk of damage to the router as a
result of overload. Use very slow feed rates and/or multiple shallow cuts
• The Speed Controller (10) is marked 1 to 5, corresponding approximately with the
speeds and cutter diameters below. Turn the dial to select the required speed

Cutting depth adjustment

IMPORTANT:

YOU WILL DAMAGE YOUR PLUNGE MECHANISM IF YOU
DO NOT FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
ALWAYS ensure the Plunge lock lever (11) is unlocked by setting it to its highest position
before adjusting the cutting depth using the 'Free plunge' or 'Winder handle adjustment'
methods below.
Note: To lock the router at a particular depth of cut, plunge the router head down and rotate
the Plunge Lock Lever (11) to its lower position. This will hold the router head in this position.
• There are three methods of cut depth adjustment, depending on the accuracy and
control required:
Free plunge
1. Free plunge depth adjustments can be made with the Plunge Selection Button (18)
engaged. Press the Plunge Selection Button deep inside the handle until it engages inward
(Image A)
2. Release the Plunge Lock Lever (11) and push the body of the router until the required
depth is reached. Re-lock the Plunge Lock Lever
Winder handle adjustment
1. Plunge depth adjustments can be made by turning the Winder Handle (19)
2. Disengage the Plunge Selection Button (18), and ensure the button is flush with the
Winder Handle (Image K)
3. To release the Winder Handle, pull the Winder Handle Clutch Ring (17) inwards (Image B)
4. Release the Plunge Lock Lever (11) and twist the Winder Handle until the desired depth
of cut is reached. Release the Winder Handle Clutch Ring, and lock the Plunge Lock Lever
Micro Winder
Note: For use in Winder Handle (19) plunge mode only.
1. Disengage the Plunge Selection Button (18), and ensure that the Plunge Lock Lever (11) is
unlocked
Note: If the Micro Winder (20) is turned with the Plunge Lock Lever engaged, the Micro Winder
will start clicking and the cut depth will remain unchanged.
2. Turn the Micro Winder clockwise to increase cut depth and anti-clockwise to reduce cut
depth. Adjust the cut depth until the desired height is reached
Note: When the end of the depth adjustment range is reached, the Micro Winder will offer
greater resistance and will begin to 'click'.
3. Engage the Plunge Lock Lever, particularly for heavy cuts
Depth stop & turret
1. The Depth Stop (3) and Turret Stops (1) are used to accurately pre-set up to three different
cut depths
2. Loosen the Depth Stop Lock Knob (5) and retract the Depth Stop fully, then re-tighten
(Image F)
3. Set the turret posts to the required plunge depths using the scales on the stationary turret
post (Image G)
