TO LOCK SWITCH ON: Squeeze trigger,
depress "Lock-On button and release trigger
(Fig. 2).
TO UNLOCK THE SWITCH: Squeeze trigger
and release it without depressing the "Lock-
ON" button.
If the "Lock-ON" button is
W RNING
continuously being de-
pressed, the trigger cannot be released.
Always hold the router off the work when
turning the switch on or off. Contact the work
with the router after the router has reached
desired speed, and remove it from the work
before turning the switch off. Operating in this
manner will prolong switch and motor life and
will greatly increase the quality of your work.
Always hold the tool with both hands while
starting the tool, since torque from the motor
can cause the tool to twist.
ELECTRONIC VARIABLE SPEED
CONTROL (Model 1825 only)
The electronic speed control feature allows
motor speed to be matched to cutter size and
material hardness for improved finish,
extended bit life, and higher performance.
Speed changes are achieved by rotating the
dial on or between any one of the six numbers
(Fig. 4). Speed may be changed while tool is
on. The reference numbers on the dial
facilitate re-setting control to desired speed.
The speed chart indicates the relationship
between settings and application, exact
settings are determined by operator
experience and preference. The bit
manufacturer may also have a speed
recommendation.

Your tool is also equipped with a Site-Light™
for better visibility during operation (Fig. 2).
When the tool is plugged in, the lights will turn
on automatically when the user grips the
handle and covers the sensor.

counter tops, smaller
diameter bits, and
cutters
The Site-Light™ is maintenance free and was
designed to last the life of your tool.
Note: When holding the tool, always make
sure the sensor in the handle is completely
covered when activating the light.
FEEDING THE ROUTER
As seen from the top of the router, the bit
turns clockwise and the cutting edges face
accordingly. Therefore, the most efficient cut
is made by feeding the router so that the bit
turns into the work, not away. Figure 13
shows proper feed for various cuts. How fast
you feed depends on the hardness of the
material and the size of the cut. For some
materials, it is best to make several cuts of
increasing depth.
If the router is hard to control, heats up, runs
very slowly or leaves an imperfect cut,

BIT
consider these causes:
1. Wrong direction of feed — hard to control.
2. Feeding too fast — overloads motor.
3. Dull bit — overloads motor.
4. Cut is too large for one pass — overloads
motor.
5. Feeding too slow — leaves friction burns
on work.
Feed smoothly and steadily (do not force).
You will soon learn how the router sounds
and feels when it is working best.
RATE OF FEED
When routing or doing related work in wood
and plastics, the best finishes will result if the
depth of cut and feed rate are regulated to
keep the motor operating at high speed.
Feed the router at a moderate rate. Soft
materials require a faster feed rate than hard
materials.
