Variable Speed Dial (Fig. A)

WARNING: If the speed control ceases to operate, or is
intermittent, stop using the tool immediately. Take it to a
D WALT factory or authorized service facility for repair.
e
NOTICE: The router is equipped with electronics to
monitor and maintain the speed of the tool while cutting.
In low and medium speed operation, the speed control
prevents the motor speed from decreasing. If you expect
to hear a speed change and continue to load the motor,
you could damage the motor by overheating. Reduce
the depth of cut and/or slow the feed rate to prevent
tool damage.
Refer to the Speed Selection Chart to choose a router speed.
Turn the speed dial 1 to control router speed. The speed is
variable from 9000 to 22000 rpm using the speed dial
1. Turn the speed dial to the required position. The dial is
numbered from 1 –7 and corresponds to router speeds of
9000 rpm to 22000 rpm.
2. Use the slower settings for large diameter cutters and the
faster settings for small diameter cutters.
3. The correct setting will also depend on the density of the
material, depth of cut and feed speed of the router.
nOTE: A noticeable loss of motor rpm means
motor overload.

2. To switch off the worklights the router must be
disconnected from mains power supply.
nOTE: The worklight is for lighting the immediate work surface
and is not intended to be used as a flashlight.
Setting Plunge Lock System (Fig. B)
The plunge is fully automatically locking for all cuts. For heavy
cut operations, ensure to push the lever towards the tool body.
The plunge lock lever 6 position is set at the factory so the
lever does not touch the motor body, if the plunge lock lever
begins to hit the body when the quick release lever is pushed,
readjust the locking lever position as follows:
1. Push in quick release button
unlock automatically.
2. Using a Torx 20 star bit
on the plunge lock lever
Do not fully remove.
3. Lift the plunge lock lever, rotate and reposition the plunge
lock lever at position 2 (at eleven o'clock).
4. Tighten the shoulder screw.
5. If after setting to position 2 sliding is not correct, repeat
steps 1 to 3 and reposition the lock lever at position 1.
Tighten the shoulder screw.

Moulding Natural Timbers


WARNING: When routing always lock the plunge
locking lever.
When edge moulding natural timbers, always mould the end
grain first, followed by the long grain. This ensures that if there is
breakout, it will be removed when the long grain is routed.
Setting the Routing Depth (Fig. D, E)
1. Place the router with cutter fitted on to the workpiece.
2. Set the multiple position turret stop
