Never use this router
motor
with a cutter
bit larger
than 3=1/2 inches in
diameter.
Always
use cutter
bits that are designed
for this router.
Never use cutter
bits which
are larger in diameter
than the opening in the router
sub-
base. Cutter bits that have cutter diameters
larger than the opening
could
cause possible
loss of control
or create other hazardous
condition
that could
cause serious personal
injury.
The sub-base
on this fixed base router
has an opening
of 1=1/4 inches.
To use cutter bits with a larger diameter,
install and use a sub-base
with a
larger diameter
opening
(sold separately
at Sears stores or other Craftsman
outlets).
Do not use large router
cutter
bits for freehand
routing.
Use of large
cutter bits when freehand
routing could cause loss of control or create
hazardous
conditions
that could result in serious personal
injury, if using a
router table, large bits should
be used for edging only.
Be sure that the cutter
bit is centered
in a template
guide
(sold
separately)
prior to template guide applications
to avoid personal injury or
damage to finished
work.
Do not remove more than
1/8 inch in a single
pass. Excessive
depth of
cut can result in loss of control that could result in personal
injury.
After
completing
a cut, turn the motor
OFF and let it come to complete
stop before removing
router from
workpiece.
Let the motor
come to a complete
stop
before putting
the router
down.
Cutter bits coast after the power is turned off.
Only use router
tables
with on=board
switch=controlled
receptacles.
Failure to use router tables with all the appropriate
safety features could
result in serious personal
injury.
