• DO NOT ALTER OR MISUSE TOOL.
These tools are precision built. Any alterations
or modifications not specified is misuse and
may result in a dangerous condition.
• THE USE OF ANY ACCESSORIES not
specified in this manual may create a hazard.
• MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep
tools sharp and clean for better and safer perfor-
mance. Follow instructions for lubricating and
changing accessories. Inspect tool cords peri-
odically and if damaged, have repaired by au-
thorized service facility. Inspect extension
cords periodically and replace if damaged. Keep
handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
• CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before fur-
ther use of the tool, a guard or other part that is
damaged should be carefully checked to deter-
mine that it will operate properly and perform
its intended function. Check for alignment of
moving parts, binding of moving parts, break-
age of parts, mounting, and any other condi-
tions that may affect its operation. A guard or
other part that is damaged should be promptly
and properly repaired or replaced. Have defec-
tive switches replaced. Do not use tool if switch
does not turn it on or off.
• ALL REPAIRS, ELECTRICAL OR ME-
CHANICAL, should be attempted only by
trained repairmen. Contact the nearest Bosch
Factory Service Center, or Bosch Authorized
Service Center or other competent repair cen-
ter. Use only Bosch replacement parts, any
other may create a hazard.
Safety Rules for Routers
• Never start the router when the bit is engaged
in the material. The bit's cutting edge may grab
the material causing the router to get out of
control. Always hold the router with two hands
during start-up. The reaction torque of the
motor can cause the router to twist.
• Always make sure the workpiece is free from
nails and other foreign objects which can cause
the bit and router to jump and damage the bit.
• Always wear safety goggles. If router has a
removable chip deflector, keep it in place when
routing.
• Never touch the router bit or other moving
part during use. After use the router bit is too
hot to be touched by bare hands.
BM 2610967928 1/97
• If router bit is protruding through the base,
never lay the router down until the motor has
come to a complete standstill.
• Never hold the workpiece in one hand and
the router in other when in use. Always clamp
the material and hold the router securely with
both hands.
• Never use bits that have a cutting diameter
greater than the opening in the base.
• After changing the bits or making any adjust-
ments, make sure the collet nut and any other
adjustment devices are securely tightened be-
fore using the router.
• The direction of feeding the router into the
material is very important and it relates to the
direction of bit rotation. When viewing the
router from the top, the bit rotates clockwise.
When the router is located between your body
and the material, the feed direction must be to
the right. If the material is located between your
body and the router, then the feed direction
must be to the left. Feeding the router in the
wrong direction causes the cutting edge of the
bit to climb out of the work and pull the router
in the direction of this feed.
Double Insulated Tools
• Double Insulation
used in electric power tools which eliminates
the need for the three wire grounded power cord
and grounded power supply system. It is a
recognized and approved system by
Underwriter's Laboratories, CSA and Federal
OSHA authorities.
IMPORTANT:
double insulation requires care and knowledge
of the system and should be performed only by
a qualified service technician. WHEN SER-
VICE IS REQUIRED USE ONLY IDENTI-
CAL REPLACEMENT PARTS.
POLARIZED PLUGS: If your tool is equipped
with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than
the other), this plug will fit in a polarized outlet
only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the
outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician to install the
proper outlet. To reduce the risk of electric
shock do not change the plug in any way.
