c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a
power tool. Distractions can cause you to loose control.
3. Electrical safety
a) Router and router table switch plugs must match the
outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use
adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of
electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces
such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There
is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is
earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose router and router table to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a router or router table switch
will increase the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or unplugging the router and router table
switch. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the
risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a router and router table outdoors,
use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a
cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric
shock.
4. Personal safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common
sense when operating a router and router table. Do not
use while you are tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while
operating a router and router table may result in serious
personal injury.
b) Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection.
Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for
appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c) Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the
off position before plugging in. Carrying routers with your
finger on the switch or plugging in routers that have the
switch on invite accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning
the router and router table on. A wrench or a key left
attached to a rotating part of the router may result in
personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at
all times. This enables better control of the workpiece in
unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery.
Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught
in moving parts.
g) Connect router table to dust extraction devices. Use of
these devices can reduce dust related hazards.
5. Router and router table use and care
a) Do not force the router. Use the correct router cutter
for your application. The router will do the job better and
safer for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the router or router table of the switch
does not turn it on and off. Any router that cannot be
EN - CRT/MK3
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source before
making any adjustments, changing accessories, or
sorting router and router table. Such preventative safety
measures reduce the risk if starting the power tool
accidentally.
d) Store idle routers and router tables out of the reach
of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the
router or router table or these instructions to operate
the tool. Routers and router tables are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain router and router table. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts and any other condition that may affect the tools
operation. If damaged, have the router or router table
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 router, router table, accessories and tool
bits etc., in accordance with these instructions and in
the manner intended for the particular type of router,
taking in account the working conditions and the work
to be performed. Use of the router or router table for
operations different from intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
