WARNING
When using electric tools, always follow the safety precautions below to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and personal injury.
Read all these instructions before attempting to operate this product. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
1) Work area safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b) Don't use power tools in a dangerous environment. Don't use power tools
in damp or wet locations, or expose them to rain.
c) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks that
can ignite the fumes or dust.
d) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
e) Make your workshop child proof. Use padlocks, master switches, or
remove starter keys.
2) Electrical safety
a) Ground electric tools. If the tool is equipped with a three-prong plug, it
must be plugged into a grounded three-hole electrical outlet. If the proper
outlet is not available, have one installed by a qualified electrician. Never remove
the third prong or modify the provided plug in any way.
b) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a
power tool increases the risk of electric shock.
c) 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.
d) Use a proper extension cord and make sure it is in good condition. When using
an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your power
tool draws. An undersized cord causes a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power
and overheating. Table 1 on the following page shows the correct cord gauge to use
depending on cord length and tool nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next
heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord.
e) When operating electric tools, avoid body contact with grounded or earthed
surfaces such as pipes, radiators, kitchen ranges, and refrigerators. Contact with a
grounded surface increases the risk of electric shock.

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 influence
of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power
tools can result in serious personal injury.
b) Always wear safety glasses. Everyday eyeglasses are not safety glasses.
Safety glasses have specially constructed lenses, frames, and side shields.
c) Use safety equipment. Use a face or dust mask when the cutting operation is
dusty. Safety equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or
hearing protection used for appropriate conditions reduces personal injuries.
d) Avoid accidental starting. Make sure the switch is in the off-position
before plugging in. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or
plugging in power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
e) 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 can result in
personal injury.
f) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables
better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
g) Secure workpieces. Use clamps or a vise to hold work when practical. This is
safer than using your hand and it frees both hands to operate the tool.
h) Never stand on the machine. Serious injury can occur if the tool tips or if the
cutting tool is unintentionally contacted.
i) 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 moving parts. Roll up long sleeves to the elbow. Wear
protective hair covering to contain long hair.
j) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection
facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of these devices
reduces dust-related hazards.
4) Power tool use and care
a) Keep guards in place and in working order.
b) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your
General Safety Instructions
application. The tool will do the job better and safer at the feed rate for which it
was designed.
c) Use right tool or accessory. Don't force a tool or attachment to do a job for
which it was not designed.
d) 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.
e) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from
the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally.
f) Never leave tool running unattended. Turn power off. Do not leave tool until
it comes to a complete stop.
g) 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.
h) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that can affect power
tool operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
i) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
j) Use the recommended speed for the cutting tool or accessory and
workpiece material.
k) Only use parts and accessories recommended by the manufacturer.
Consult the owner's manual for recommended accessories. Using improper
accessories can cause personal injury.
l) Use the power tool, accessories, and tool bits 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 different from those intended
can result in a hazardous situation.
5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only
identical replacement parts. This ensures that the safety of the power tool is
maintained.
6) Safety Instructions specific to operating the Precision Benchtop
Router Table.
a) Read, understand, and follow your router manufacturer's safety warnings
and instructions.
b) Disconnect the router from power before making adjustments. Never
adjust the fence, plate, reducing rings, or any part of the router or router table
while the router is running.
c) Place the router table on a flat surface to prevent tipping or sliding.
Never stand on the router table.
d) Do not attempt to rout warped, twisted, or bowed workpieces. All
workpieces must have flat faces and square edges.
e) Do not attempt to rout very large workpieces on a router table.
Very large workpieces can be difficult to control and can cause the router table to
tip over.
f) Only use router bits in your router. Never use tools such as carving burrs,
mounted abrasives, wire wheels, or drill pits, even if the shanks match the
diameter of the router collet.
g) Wear gloves when handling router bits. Cutting edges are sharp.
h) Never use dirty, dull, or damaged router bits. Remove wood-resin build-up
with a cleaner specifically formulated for cutting tools. Have dull bits sharpened by
a qualified person. Discard damaged bits.
i) Make sure at least 75% of the router-bit shank length is securely held in the
router collet. To ensure a secure hold, leave
the end of the bit shanks and the bottom of the collet.
j) Use the insert-plate reducing ring with the smallest opening that allows the
bit to pass through it. A large gap around the bit can allow the workpiece to tip
⁄ " to ⁄ " (2mm-3mm) between
