6.4 Routing
Operate the tool at full speed.
Only then should you lower the router to its working
height and lock the router with the locking lever (11).
Cutting direction: The cutting tool turns clockwise.
To avoid accidents you must always cut against the
direction in which the tool turns (Fig. 12).
Feed speed: It is very important to machine the
workpiece at the correct feed speed. We recom-
mend that before you machine the actual work-
piece, you carry out several trial cuts on a waste
piece of the same type. This will enable you to
find the best working speed for the workpiece
very easily.
Feed speed too low: The cutter could heat up
excessively. If you are cutting inflammable material
such as wood, the workpiece could ignite.
Feed speed too high: The cutter could be damaged.
Cutting quality: Rough and uneven.
If the router becomes clogged with work
debris, switch it off. Let the router come to a
complete stop.
Remove the debris with a long stick and not with
your fingers.
6.5 Switching off the tool
Release the ON/OFF switch (2). Release the locking
lever (11) and return the cutter to its starting position.
Pull the power plug.
Allow the cutter to come to a complete standstill
before removing the workpiece or putting down
the router.
Freehand routing
The router can also be operated without any guide
rods. You can use it for freehand routing for creative
work such as the production of logos.
Use a very flat cutter setting for this purpose.
Check the direction in which the cutter is turning
as you machine the workpiece (Fig. 12).
6.6 Circular routing with centering tip (Fig. 13)
You can route circular areas using the centering
pin (16) and the mounting to go with it.
Clamp the centering pin (16) to the end of one of
the guide rods (a). Push the guide rod (a) into
one of the grooves on the base plate (9). Secure
the guide rod (a) on the base plate (9) using the

securing screws (10).
Set the required radius between the centering pin
(16) and cutter.
Position the centering pin (16) in the center of the
circle you wish to route. If necessary undo the
wing screw (b) on the centering pin (16) and
extend/shorten the part of the centering pin (16)
that points downwards.
Ensure that you route at an even speed.
6.7 Parallel stop (Figure 14)
Use the parallel stop (14) if you want to cut a groove
parallel to the edge of the workpiece.
Fitting the parallel stop: Remove the screws
and washers from the guide rods (a). Fit the par-
allel stop on the guide rods (a) using the screws
and washers. Push the guide rods (a) into the
grooves on the base plate (9). Set the required
distance between the parallel stop and cutter.
Secure the guide rods (a) on the base plate (9)
using the securing screws (10).
Place the parallel stop (14) on the edge of the
workpiece.
6.8 Copy routing (Figure 15 / 16)
If you wish to make several objects with the
same shape, you can do so using the copy rou-
ting disk (18).
Secure the copy routing disk (18) to the undersi-
de of the guide plate (9) using the two long scr-
ews supplier (a). The rise (b) in the center of the
disk should be placed on the outside.
Now secure two workpieces on your workbench:
Top workpiece -> template (= a finished workpie-
ce)
Bottom workpiece -> Copy (= the workpiece you
wish to route)
Set the cutting depth and the speed range.
Guide the rise in the copy routing disk (18) along
the edge of the template. This allows the con-
tours of the template to be transferred to the
workpiece.
