Motor
Your B&D tool is powered by a B&D built motor. Be sure your power supply
agrees with the nameplate marking. Voltage decrease of more than 10% will
cause loss of power and overheating. All B&D tools are factory tested; if this
tool does not operate, check the power supply.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

TURN OFF AND UNPLUG ROUTER
NOTE: Before installing a router bit in your unit, position the tool so that the
collet is easily accessible. To do this, rotate the height stop thumb wheel,
shown in Figure 1, counterclockwise until it is about 1/2" from the top of the
threaded height stop rod. Raise the plunge release lever, shown in Figure 2,
and let the router rise to its full height. Depress the plunge release lever to
lock the tool in place.
Bit Installation and Removal
TURN OFF AND UNPLUG ROUTER
IMPORTANT NOTE: Always snap the collet firmly into the collet nut, (past the
retainer spring) before installing a bit.
Use the supplied wrench and the spindle lock as necessary to loosen (coun-
terclockwise) the collet nut, as shown in Figure 3.
Insert the round shank of the desired router bit into the loosened collet as far
as it will go and then pull it out about 1/16". Hold the spindle shaft by
depressing the spindle lock button, shown in figure 3, while firmly tightening
the collet nut with the wrench provided.
Your router has a unique locking system for retaining the bit. When remov-
ing a bit, the collet nut must be loosened with the wrench. The collet nut will
turn approximately 3/4 of a turn and then become tight again. At this point
the bit can't be removed. Using the same procedure, loosen the nut a second
time.This lifts the collet and makes it very easy to remove the bit.
