Dust extraction
Dust hazard
► Dust can be hazardous to health. Always
work with a dust extractor.
► Always read applicable national regula
tions before extracting hazardous dust.
Extraction hoods are supplied for both router
tables; a Festool extractor (extractor hose with
a diameter of 27 mm) can be connected to
these extraction hoods.
The dust extractor (extractor hose with dia. 27
mm) can also be attached to the large surface
router table or the side stop depending on the
application.
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.

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:
–
Always secure the workpiece in such a way
that it cannot move during machining.
–
Hold the machine with two hands – one on
the motor housing and one on the gear
head or on the additional handle [1-5] – to
ensure safe guidance.
–
Adjust the feed speed to the router diame
ter and the material. Work with a constant
feed speed.
–
Only guide the power tool towards the
workpiece when it is switched on.
–
Wait until the power tool has come to a
complete halt before placing it down. The
insertion tool can get caught and lead to a
loss of control of the power tool.
–
Make sure that the router table is firmly
tightened before routing.
–
When routing, ensure that the power tool's
feed direction is the same as the tool's cut
ting direction.
