d) 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.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and
any other condition that may affect the power
tool's operation. If damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc.
in accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to
be performed. Use of the power tool for operations
different from those intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is
maintained.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY WARNINGS FOR
ELECTRICAL ROUTERS
• Never start the router while the cutter is touching the
workpiece.
• Ensure the cutter has completely stopped before
plunging to the collet lock position.
• Do not handle cutters immediately after use - they
become very hot.
• Ensure the plunge spring is always fitted when using
hand-held.
• Only use router cutters designed for woodwork,
suitable for use between 8,000 and 20,000rpm.
• Only use cutters with a shank diameter exactly
matched to the collet fitted.
• Extreme care must be taken not to overload the motor
when using cutters with a diameter greater then 2"
(50mm). Use very slow feed rates and/or multiple
shallow cuts to avoid overloading the motor.

• Remove the plug from the socket before carrying out
any adjustment, servicing or maintenance.
• Fully unwind cable drum extensions to avoid potential
overheating.
• When an extension cable is required, you must ensure
it has the right ampere rating for your power tool and
is in a safe electrical condition.
• Ensure your mains supply voltage is the same as your
tool rating plate voltage.
• Your tool is double insulated for additional protection
against a possible electrical insulation failure within
the tool.
• Always check walls, floors and ceilings to avoid hidden
power cables and pipes.
• After long working periods external metal parts and
accessories could be hot.
• Handle router bits with care, they can be extremely
sharp.
• Check the bit carefully for signs of damage or
cracks before use. Replace damaged or cracked bits
immediately.
• Always use both handles and make that you have a
firm grip on the router before proceeding with
any work.
• Keep your hands away from the rotating bit.
• Make sure that the bit is not in contact with the work
when you switch the machine on.
• Before using the tool to make a cut, switch on and let
it run for a while. Watch for vibration or wobbling that
could indicate an improperly installed bit.
• Take notice of the direction of rotation of the bit and
the direction of feed.
• Always switch off and wait until the bit has come to a
complete stand still before removing the machine from
the workpiece.
• Ensure that you have removed foreign objects such as
nails and screws from the work before commencing
operation.
• Rags, cloths, cord, string and the
like should never be left around the work area.
• Use safety equipment including safety goggles or
shield, ear protection, dust mask and protective
clothing including safety gloves.
