• Press the spindle lock (7) and turn the collet
nut (6) until it engages in the lock. Keep the
spindle lock pressed during this procedure.
• Open the collet nut using the spanner.
• Place the cutter shaft in the collet (5).
• Tighten the collet nut so that the cutter is
locked properly.
• Open the collet nut when you want to replace a
cutter.
Adjusting the parallel fence ruler
The parallel fence is a useful tool for precision
routing at a fixed distance from the edge of the
workpiece.
• Place the desired cutter in the tool.
• Slide the parallel guide with the guide rods
into the baseplate and tighten at the required
measure with the wing bolts
Mounting the template guide
Fig. C
The template guide is a handy aid for cutting a
pattern.
• Mount the template guide (18) on the router
base (3) using the screws (17).
Mounting the adapter for dust extraction
Fig. B+D
Use the dust adapter for the extraction of dust. In
case the adapter is not mounted on the machine,
follow these instructions.
• Mount the dust adapter (13) with the screws
(17) on the cutter sole (3).
• Place the tube of your vacuum cleaner on the
dust tube (19).
Keep the outlet of the machine behind
the machine for a good view on the
workpiece.
4. OPERATION
The ON/OFF switch
• To switch on the tool, press and hold the on/off
switch (1).
• If you release the on/off switch (1), the tool will
be switched off.

• Do not put the machine down when the motor
is still running. Do not place the machine on
a dusty surface. Dust particles may enter the
mechanism.
Usage tips
• After switching the machine on, make sure the
machine reaches full speed before using it on
the workpiece.
• Clamp the workpiece and make sure that
the workpiece cannot slide from under the
machine during the cutting activities.
• Hold the machine firmly and move it evenly
over the workpiece. Do not force the machine.
• Only use cutters which do not show any signs
of wear. Worn cutters have a negative effect on
the efficiency of the machine.
• Always switch off the machine first before
removing the plug from the wall socket.
Speed Preselection
The required speed can be preselected with the
thumbwheel. Also during running the rotational
speed can be adjusted.
1 - 2 = low speed
3 - 4 = medium speed
5 = high speed
Max = maximum speed
The required speeds depends on the material
and can be determined by practical testing.
Furthermore router bits with a large diameter need
a lower rotational speed.
