OPERATION


WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn unit off and disconnect it from
power source before making any adjustments or
removing/installing attachments or accessories.
An accidental start-up can cause injury.

CAUTION: Before connecting tool to power
source, check to see that the switch is in the
"OFF" position. An accidental start-up can
cause injury.

CAUTION: Turn the router on before plunging the
cutter head into the workpiece.
After setting the cutting depth as described, locate the

down into the workpiece. (DO NOT JAM THE ROUTER
DOWN). When the tool reaches the pre-set depth, tighten
the plunge lock. When you have finished routing, loosen the
plunge lock and let the spring lift the router directly out of
the workpiece.
nOTE: Always feed the router opposite to the direction in
which the cutter is rotating.
