Cutting While Using The Straight Edge Guide; Installing The Flexible Shaft - TACKLIFE PTR01A User Manual

CUTTING WHILE USING THE STRAIGHT EDGE GUIDE

NOTE: After setting the edge guide to the desired position, make a test cut on a scrap piece of
material to verify you have the correct setting.
1. Clamp the workpiece to hold it securely while cutting.
NOTE: Make sure there is adequate clearance under the workpiece for the bit to travel and the edge
is clear for the straight edge guide to move freely.
2. Place the router base on the workpiece with the straight edge guide against the edge to be ripped
(Fig. 23).
NOTE: Make sure the bit does NOT touch the workpiece until the motor is up to full speed.
3. Turn the switch ON while firmly holding the tool.
4. Slide the router base along the workpiece while making sure the straight edge guide is firmly
contacting the workpiece at all times.

INSTALLING THE FLEXIBLE SHAFT

WARNING: Never bend the flexible shaft with a radius of less than 6" when operating
!
(Fig. 24). Always store the flexible shaft without bends wherever possible.
NOTE: The head of the flexible shaft should not be excessively bent. If excessive heating is
observed, stop using the flexible shaft immediately. Remove the cable from the flexible shaft body
and inspect it for a permanent bend or other damage. Replace damaged cable.
