Router bits with carbide tips (HM) are especially
suitable for hard and abrasive materials such as
hardwood and aluminium.
Original router bits from the extensive range of
Berner accessories are available from your spe-
cialist dealer.
Only use undamaged and clean router bits.
Pull out the spindle locking lever (7) up to the
marking arrow (6) on the housing. If necessary,
turn the motor spindle manually until it is locked
in place. Six positions offset by 60° are possible.
Unscrew the cap nut (9) anticlockwise using the
open-ended spanner (18).
Slide the router bit into the collet. The shank of
the router bit must be immersed at least 20 mm
into the collet.
Retighten the cap nut by turning in clockwise dir-
ection.
Slide the spindle locking lever (7) back into the
housing.
Do not, under any circumstances, tighten the
u
collet with the tightening nut until a router bit
has been fitted. The collet may otherwise be-
come damaged.
Dust/Chip Extraction
Dust from materials such as lead-containing coat-
ings, some wood types, minerals and metal can
be harmful to one's health. Touching or breathing-
in the dust can cause allergic reactions and/or
lead to respiratory infections of the user or
bystanders.
Certain dust, such as oak or beech dust, is con-
sidered carcinogenic, especially in connection
with wood-treatment additives (chromate, wood
preservative). Materials containing asbestos may
only be worked by specialists.
– Provide for good ventilation of the working
place.
– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class res-
pirator.
Observe the relevant regulations in your country
for the materials to be worked.
Avoid dust accumulation at the workplace.
u
Dust can easily ignite.

ment button (8). Move the drive unit up or down
and adjust the routing depth to approximately the
required position. Release the (8) button.
Use the thumbwheel (10) to set the exact routing

Routing direction and routing process
(see figures F–G)
English
Routing must always be carried out with the
u
workpiece being moved against the direction
in which the router bit (17) is turning (up cut).
If the workpiece is moved in the same direction
as the router bit is turning (down cut), the
power tool may be pulled out of your hands.
Note: Be aware that the router bit (17) always pro-
trudes slightly from the base plate (12). Do not
damage the template or the workpiece.
Set the routing depth you want.
Switch on the power tool and guide it to the point
you want to machine.
Carry out the routing process with a uniform feed.
Switch off the power tool after routing.
