SOFT START FEATURE

the speed at which the motor starts. This

on/off switch once.
To stop the router, depress and release the on/
off switch again.
Always hold the tool and cutter bit away from
the workpiece when turning on the switch. Only
allow the tool and cutter bit to come into contact
with the workpiece after it has reached full
speed.
LED LIGHTS (FIG. 19)
The tool is equipped with 2 built-in LED
lights located around the collet. They provide
additional light on the surface of the workpiece
for operation in lower-light areas.
The LED light will automatically turn on when
starting the tool, and will turn off approximately
10 seconds after the tool is stopped.
NOTE:
The LED lights will flash to signal that the

switch is pressed. Release the spindle lock
