ADJUSTING DEPTH OF CUT
1. Open the clamp (A) Fig. 6.
2. Hold the base (E) and turn the power
unit (F) Fig. 6 counter-clockwise until
the tip of the bit is above the bottom
of the base.
3. Set the tool on a flat surface.
4. Turn the power unit (F) Fig. 6
clockwise until bit touches the work.
5. Close the clamp (A) Fig. 6.
6. Rotate the depth adjusting ring
(B) Fig. 6 until the zero-line (C) is
opposite the index line (D) on the
housing.
7. Open the clamp (A) Fig. 6.
8. Tip the router so that the bit is clear of the wood surface. Turn the power unit
(F) Fig. 6 clockwise until the index line (D) on the motor housing reaches the
desired depth indicated on the ring.
9. Close the clamp (A) Fig. 6.
NOTE: Setting the index line to 1/4" on the ring means the cutting edge of the bit
is exposed 1/4" below the base.
ADJUSTING SUB-BASE ALIGNMENT
Applications using a templet guide require the bit to be centered in the guide. This,
in turn, requires the center hole in the sub-base to be in line with the collet of the
motor unit. Your model has an adjustable sub-base which has been aligned at the
factory. If the sub-base has been removed and/or readjustment is required, use
the following procedure:
which could result in personal injury.
1. Loosen the sub-base mounting screws (C) Fig. 7 just enough to allow the
sub-base (D) to move.
2. Open the clamp (A) Fig. 7, and
adjust the power unit so that the
collet nut (B) engages the center
hole in the sub-base (D). Allow the
sub-base to center itself on the
collet nut. Close the clamp (A).
3. Tighten the sub-base mounting
screws (C) Fig. 7 securely.
Remove the Battery!
Be sure that the power switch is in "OFF" position and the
battery is removed to avoid accidental starting of motor
