s) ALWAYS feed AGAINST the rotation of the cutter. Both feed direction and rotation are indicated by
arrows on the router table surface.
t) ALWAYS use the fence if using a cutter without bearing or pilot. ALWAYS support the workpiece
firmly against the fence. NEVER remove the retractable guards on the fence. ALWAYS use a cutter
with bearing or pilot for freehand work.
Additional safety information
• ONLY use router cutters in perfect working condition compatible with the specification of the
router table and which are suitable for hand feeding operation (marked 'MAN' for manual
operation according to EN 847-1)
• The bit must not enter the workpiece in the same direction as the feed direction, which is likely
to cause the workpiece to climb (climb cutting) and may lead to loss of control during operation
with the workpiece pulled away from the operator in a hazardous way
• Do not attempt to re-sharpen router cutters unless you specifically follow the manufacturer's
instructions and have the equipment to do so. The majority of router cutters have blades that
cannot be re-sharpened and must be replaced immediately if dull
• Do not create fence traps caused by improper fence location. Fence traps happen when the fence
is positioned so far back that the front side of the workpiece would be behind the router cutter.
These are dangerous due to the risk of climb cutting and the difficulty of keeping the workpiece
against the fence
• Ensure the correct table insert (table ring) is fitted that is the correct size for the size of the router
cutter fitted
• Never use a router table until fully assembled and always re-check fasteners after re-assembly
after storage
• Make certain the router is not plugged into the power outlet when installing into the table or
when making adjustments or changing accessories
• DO NOT plug the router into a standard mains wall socket. It must be plugged into the router
table switch box so can be switched off in emergency situations
• The router table must be installed on a solid level surface and secured so the table will not
tip. Use of auxiliary in-feed and out-feed supports is necessary for long or wide workpieces.
Long workpieces without adequate support could cause the table to tip towards the operator
causing injury
• Routers create a lot of vibration and can work loose from their mountings. Check the mountings
frequently and re-tighten if necessary
• Never start the tool with the router cutter already engaged in the workpiece. This can lead to a
lack of control and possible injury
• The router table is designed to cut flat, straight and squared material only. Do not cut material
that is warped, uneven, weak or made from inconsistent material. If necessary make sure
material is correctly prepared before use. Incorrect material can lead to a lack of control and
possible injury
WARNING: Unmaintained tools can cause uncontrolled situations. ONLY use router cutters
that are correctly sharpened, maintained and adjusted in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions.
Note: Seek professional training and assistance before attempting work that require procedures you
are not familiar with. STOP using the router table, if, at any point during operation, you encounter
difficulties or are uncertain how to proceed
