APPLICATIONS
You may use this tool for the following purposes:
Smooth and professional trimming of laminates, wood
and wood veneer.
REMOVING THE BASE
See Figure 1, page 12.
WARNING:
DO NOT use the router if the quick release lever does not
secure the motor housing inside the base. If the lever is
too loose or too tight, turn the adjustment screw using a
3 mm hex key (not included).
Remove the battery pack.
Place the router upside down on a workbench.
Pull the quick release lever to the open position.
Depress the motor release lever completely.
Slide the base upward and remove the base.
OPERATION
To connect the motor housing to the base:
Depress the motor release lever completely.
Align the motor housing with the base and push the motor
housing onto the base.
Release the motor release lever and close the quick
release lever.
INSTALLING/REMOVING TRIMMING BITS
See Figure 2, page 12.
WARNING:
If you are changing a bit immediately after use, be careful
not to touch the collet nut, bit, or collet with your hands or
fingers. They will get burned because of the heat buildup
from cutting. Always use the wrench provided.
Turn the switch to OFF and remove the battery pack.
Place the router upside down on a workbench.
Pull the quick release lever to the open position.
Depress the motor release lever and move the base to
provide clear access to the collet nut. It is not neccesary
to remove the base.
Depress the spindle lock button and rotate spindle until
the spindle locks.
Use the wrench provided to turn the collet nut in a coun-
terclockwise direction. Continue to depress the spindle
lock button while loosening the collet nut.
Slightly retighten the collet nut with wrench by turning it
clockwise. Do not tighten completely.
NOTE: Turn the nut until it reseats but is still loose enough
to allow bit insertion.
With the router still upside down on a workbench, fully
insert the shank of the bit into the collet. Gently pull the
shank of the bit away from the bottom of the collet. This
allows for expansion when the bit gets hot. A clearance
of 1/16 in. is adequate.
NOTE: The collet is machined to precision tolerances to fit
bits with 1/4 in. diameter shanks.
Loosely tighten with wrench. Then, depress the spindle
lock button and continue tightening the collet nut with the
wrench by turning it in a clockwise direction.
WARNING:
If the collet nut is not tightened securely, the bit could
come out during use, resulting in possible serious per-
sonal injury.
Depress the motor release lever and return the base back
to an operating position.
Push the quick release lever to the closed position.
Replace the battery pack.
