Working with the router

Always ensure that your workpieces
are securely fi xed and cannot move during routing.
Otherwise, there is an increased risk of accident.
Use screw clamps or some other suitable devices
to fi x your workpiece.
The machine must always be held
with both hands by the designated handles.
Always switch the router on fi rst
before bringing the tool into contact with the
workpiece!
Always advance the router in the
same direction as the cutting direction of the cut-
ter (counter-routing)!
You should wear a dust mask for work
which produces dust.
Procedure:
– Preset the required routing depth.
– Switch on the machine.
– Unscrew the rotary knob [13.1].
– Push the machine down as far as possible.
– Clamp the machine in this position by tightening
the rotary knob [13.1].
– Perform the routing task.

Machine guidance methods

a) Routing with side stop
The side stop (partly as an accessory) is positioned
parallel to the workpiece edge.
15.1
– Secure both guide rods [15.4] with the two rotary
knobs [15.2] on the side stop.
– Insert the guide rods into the grooves on the
router base to the required distance and secure
them by turning the rotary knob [15.1].
Fine adjustment
– Unscrew the rotary knob [15.7] to make fi ne
adjustments with the adjusting wheel [15.5].
The dial ring [15.6] has a 0.004" (0.1 mm) scale
for this purpose. If the adjusting wheel is held
secure, the dial ring can be turned separately
and set to "Zero". The millimetre scale [15.3]
on the main casing is useful for making larger
adjustments.
– Tighten the rotary knob [15.7] again after com-
pleting any fi ne adjustments.

– Adjust both guidance jaws [16.3] so that they are
approx. 7/32" (5 mm) from the router bit. To do
this, undo screws [16.2] and tighten again after
completing the adjustments.
– Only when routing along an edge: slide the ex-
tractor hood [16.1] until it latches into position
on the side stop and connect an extraction hose
27 mm or 36 mm in diameter to the extractor
