b) Presetting the routing depth
fPull the depth stop [6.6] upwards until the indi-
cator [6.2] reaches the required routing depth.
fClamp the depth stop in this position using the
clamp lever [6.3].
fUnscrew the rotary knob [6.1]. The machine is
now in starting position.
fIf necessary, you can readjust the routing depth
by turning the adjusting wheel [6.8]. Each mark
represents a routing depth of 0.1 mm. One
complete turn of the wheel is 1 mm.
L
The dial ring [6.7] can be turned separately to
the "zero" setting.
L
The three marks [6.4] indicate the maxi-
mum adjustment range of the adjusting
wheel (20 mm) and the central position when
aligned with the edge [6.5].
7.5 Preliminary/Fine routing
Stop C has two stop limits with a height difference
of 2 mm. Routing to the depth preset with stop C
can be performed in two steps:
fLower the router to the first stop level [7.1] for
the preliminary routing step;
fLower the router to the second stop level [7.2]
to complete the routing procedure.
L
This procedure enables rapid routing to a
considerable depth while still achieving a
good surface quality. The final routing depth
is defined by adjusting the stop level [7.2].
7.6 Fine adjuster for edge trimming
The machine has a special fine adjuster for rout-
ing tools with a bearing guide, which allows quick
and easy precision adjustment prior to rounding
edges and prevents offsets [Fig. 8].
First of all, roughly preset the routing depth and
perform a test run.
Then adjust the routing depth more precisely:
fOpen the clamping lever [9.2].
fPush the depth stop [9.3] against the fixed stop
C [9.5].
fClamp the depth stop using the eccenter [9.4] on
the stepped stop (turn clockwise).
fClose the clamping lever [9.2].
fUnscrew the rotary knob [9.1].
fTurn the adjusting wheel [9.6] to set the routing
depth more precisely.
L
The routing depth can be adjusted in both di-
rections because the depth stop is connected
to the stepped stop.
fTighten the rotary knob [9.1].
fOpen the eccenter [9.4] (turn anticlockwise).
fPerform more test runs and make the appro-
priate adjustments if necessary.
7.7 Dust extraction
CAUTION
Breathing in dust can damage the respiratory
passage.
fAlways connect the machine to a dust extractor.
fOnly work with the chip guard [10.2] in perfect
working order.
fWhen performing work that generates dust,
always wear a dust mask.
A Festool dust extractor with an extractor hose
diameter of 36 mm or 27 mm (36 mm recom-
mended due to the reduced risk of clogging) can
be connected to the extractor connector [10.4]
The extractor connector [10.4] can be rotated
within the range indicated [10.3]. The extractor
connector on the extraction pipe will no longer
be secure if rotated outside of this range.
Chip guard
The chip guard [10.2] can be moved to the top po-
sition to change the router bit, for example. Slide
the chip guard upwards until it engages or push
the machine down as far as possible.
We recommend lowering the chip guard before
starting work to improve the efficiency of the ex-
traction system. Push the lever [10.1] towards
the handle to do this.
KSF-OF chip deflector
The chip deflector KSF-OF [11.1] indirectly in-
creases the efficiency of the extraction system
during edge routing. The maximum possible
routing diameter is 78 mm.
The deflector is fitted in a similar way to the cop-
ying ring (see "Copy routing").
The hood can be cut off along the grooves [11.2]
using a hacksaw and can thus be reduced in size.
The chip deflector can then be used for interior
radiuses up to a minimum radius of 52 mm.
