Working With The Electric Power Tool - Festool OF 1400 EQ Notice D'utilisation D'origine

7.7 Clamping the routing depth
► Open the rotary knob [1-5] and push the
power tool down until the depth stop touch­
es the fixed stop.
► Clamp the power tool in this position by
closing the rotary knob [1-5].
7.8 Dust extraction
WARNING
Heath hazard posed by dust
► Always work with an extractor.
► Comply with national regulations.
► Install the dust extraction attachment on
the router table:
▷ Position the dust-extraction attachment
with the two tenons [3-1] in the recess­
es [3-2] on the router table.
▷ Position the dust-extraction attachment
on the router table and pull the lev­
er [3-5].
To enable the dust-extraction attachment
to be attached and removed when the
router is fitted, the cut-out [3-3] in the ex­
tractor connector can be opened by turn­
ing the segment [3-4].
To ensure optimal dust extraction, the cut-
out with the rotatable segment must be
closed while work is carried out.
A Festool dust extractor with an extractor hose
diameter of 36 mm or 27 mm (36 mm recom­
mended due to the reduced risk of clogging)
can be connected to the extractor connec­
tor [3-6].
CAUTION! If an anti-static suction hose is not
used, static charge may occur. The user may
receive an electric shock and the electronics of
the power tool may be damaged.
Chip deflector KSF-OF
The chip deflector KSF-OF (available as an ac­
cessory depending on the model) can improve
the efficiency of the dust extraction system
when edge routing.
The chip deflector is installed in the same way
as the copying ring, see figure [8].
A hacksaw can be used to cut along the grooves
of the guard and therefore make it smaller. The
chip deflector can then be used for inner radii
down to a minimum radius of 40 mm.
8 Working with the electric
power tool
When working on the machine, observe
all of the safety warnings that are listed
at the start as well as the following rules:
– Only guide the power tool towards the
workpiece when it is switched on.
– Always secure the workpiece in such a way
that it cannot move during machining.
– When working, always hold the power tool
with both hands on the handles [1-5] +
[1-11]. This is a prerequisite for precise
work and is essential for plunge-cutting.
Plunge into the workpiece slowly and even­
ly.
– When routing, ensure that the power tool's
feed direction is the same as the tool's cut­
ting direction, see figure [9].
8.1 Freehand routing
Freehand routing is the method normally used
for lettering or shapes, and for routing edges
using cutters with a guide pin or ring.
8.2 Routing with a parallel side fence
For work running parallel to the workpiece
edge, the supplied parallel side fence [4-9] can
be used.
► Clamp the two guide rods [4-2] to the paral­
lel side fence using the two rotary
knobs [4-4].
► Insert the guide rods into the grooves of the
router table to the required extent and
clamp them using the rotary knob [4-5].
Fine adjustment
► Open the rotary knob [4-6] to make a fine
adjustment using the adjusting wheel [4-8].
The scale ring [4-7] has a 0.1 mm scale for
this purpose. If the adjusting wheel is held,
the scale ring can be turned separately so
that it can be set to zero. The scale [4-1]
displays the adjustment in millimetres.
► Close the rotary knob [4-6] after making a
fine adjustment.
► Set the two guidance jaws [4-3] [5-1] so
that they are approx. 5 mm from the cutter.
To do this, loosen the screws [5-2] and re­
tighten them after making an adjustment.
► As shown in figure [5], push the dust-ex­
traction attachment [5-4] from behind until
it engages on the parallel side fence.
