ROUTER DUST COLLECTION
Your router is equipped with a dust extraction
hood. If you have a shop vacuum system, you
can attach the dust extraction hood for improved
visibility, accuracy and utility, particularly in
freehand routing.
To attach, align tabs on hood with notches in
base, and position as shown. Rotate hood
slightly counter-clockwise and secure adapter to
base with the thumbscrew provided (Fig. 5).
To further enhance the dust collection efficiency,
insert the extraction enhancement ring. To
remove, press the two tabs inward, and lift out.
Make sure ring does not touch bit at any time.
The dust extraction hood itself is sized to accept
35mm vacuum hoses. Also included is an
adapter that will connect the hood to 1-1/4" and
1-1/2" vacuum hoses.
INSTALLING TEMPLET GUIDE ADAPTER
Place templet guide adapter over the holes in
the center of the sub-base, and align the two
threaded holes in the bottom of adapter with the
countersunk holes in sub-base. Fasten adapter
with the screws provided. Note that the adapter
is reversible, so the release lever may be
positioned as desired (Fig. 6).
Bosch plunge routers are designed for speed,
accuracy and convenience in performing
cabinet work, routing, fluting, beading, cove-
cutting, dovetails, etc. This will enable you to
accomplish inlay work, decorative edges and
many types of special carving.
PLUNGING ACTION
The plunge feature simplifies depth adjustments
and will allow the cutting bit to easily and
accurately enter the workpiece. To lower, push
plunge lock lever to the left, apply downward
pressure until you reach desired depth, and
release pressure on lever to lock (Fig. 7). The
plunge lock lever is spring loaded and returns
automatically to the locked position. To raise
the router, push plunge lock lever to the left,
release pressure on router and the router will
automatically retract the bit from the workpiece.
It is advisable to retract the bit whenever it is not
engaged in workpiece.
