e) Maintain power tools and accessories. Check
for misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition that
may affect the power tool's operation. If damaged,
have the power tool repaired before use. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits,
etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking
into account the working conditions and the work
to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations
different from those intended could result in a hazardous
situation.
h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean
and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and
grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and
control of the tool in unexpected situations.
5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool
is maintained.
Safety Instructions for Routers
a) Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces only, because the cutter may contact
its own cord. Cutting a "live" wire may make exposed
metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the
operator an electrical shock.
b) Use clamps or another practical way to secure
and support the workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the work by your hand or against the body
leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.
c) Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and
grease. This will enable better control of the tool.
d) Maintain a firm grip with both hands on the tool
to resist starting torque. Maintain a firm grip on the
tool at all times while operating.
e) Keep hands away from cutting area above and
below the base. Never reach under the workpiece
for any reason. Keep the router base firmly in contact
with the workpiece when cutting.
f) Never touch the bit immediately after use. It
may be extremely hot.
g) Be sure that the motor has stopped completely
before you lay the router down. If the bit is still
spinning when the tool is laid down, it could cause injury
or damage.
h) Be sure that the router bit is clear of the
workpiece before starting the motor. If the bit is
in contact with the workpiece when the motor starts, it
could make the router jump, causing damage or injury.
EN - T4
i) The permitted speed of the cutting bit must be
at least equal to the maximum speed marked on
the power tool. If cutting bits run faster than their rated
speed, they may break and fly off.
j) Always follow the bit manufacturer's speed
recommendations as some bit designs require
specific speeds for safety or performance. If you
are unsure of the proper speed or are experiencing any
type of problem, contact the bit manufacturer.
k) Do not use cutters larger than 40 mm in this tool.
RESIDUAL RISKS
WARNING:
We recommend the use of
a residual current device with a residual current
rating of 30mA or less.
In spite of the application of the relevant safety
regulations and the implementation of safety devices,
certain residual risks cannot be avoided. These are:
• Impairment of hearing.
• Risk of personal injury due to flying particles.
• Risk of burns due to accessories becoming hot during
operation.
• Risk of personal injury due to prolonged use.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Electrical Safety
The electric motor has been designed for one voltage
only. Always check that the power supply corresponds to
the voltage on the rating plate.
Your tool is double insulated in accordance with EN62841;
therefore no earth wire is required.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by
a specially prepared cord available through the Trend
service organisation.
Mains Plug Replacement (U.K. & Ireland Only)
If a new mains plug needs to be fitted:
• Safely dispose of the old plug.
• Connect the brown lead to the live terminal in the plug.
• Connect the blue lead to the neutral terminal.
WARNING:
No connection is to be made to
the earth terminal. Follow the fitting instructions supplied
with good quality plugs. Recommended fuse: 10A.
Using an Extension Cable
An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely
necessary. Use an approved extension cable suitable
-10-
for the power input of your charger (see Technical Data).
The minimum conductor size is 1.0mm
; the maximum
2
length is 30m.
When using a cable reel, always unwind the cable
completely.
WARNING:
Always consider the following compulsive
conditions:
• Use 6.35mm shank diameter for straight, rebate,
groove and profile cutter.
• Maximum cutter diameter:
T4 35mm at 35mm cutting depth
T4 Groove Cutter: 35mm at 6mm cutting depth
Power Shut Off Function
• The T4 V2 router has a built in power shut off function to
meet the new EN standard EN 62841-2-17.
• Should there be a loss of power supply the machine will cut
out automatically. The switch will then need to be reactivated
to switch the machine on again.
Please note this new power shut off
requirement will prevent using a No Volt Release
Switch (NVRS) being used as an on/off switch.
Following taken from New Standard
EN 62841-2-17:2017
21 Construction
21.18 Tools, other than those provided with a flexible shaft,
shall be fitted with a mains switch, which can be switched off
by the user without releasing his grasp on the tool. When a
switch has a locking arrangement
to lock it in the "on" position, the requirement in 21.18
is considered as being met provided the switch unlocks
automatically when the trigger or actuating member is
actuated.
21.18.1 Where there is a risk associated with continued
operation, the switch shall not have any locking device to lock
it in the "on" position and it shall not remain in the "on" position
when the trigger is released. This shall be stated in the relevant
part 2.
21.18.1.1
For routers, either
- the power switch shall be a momentary power switch
without having a locking arrangement in the "on" position;
or
- the tool shall not restart after an interruption of the mains
supply without releasing and re-actuating the power switch.
21.18.1.2
Routers are regarded as tools having a risk associated with
inadvertent starting.
21.18.2 Where there is a risk associated with inadvertent
starting, the switch shall have a locking device to lock it on the
"off" position. This shall be stated in the relevant part 2.
