Features - Craftsman 315.265030 Operator's Manual

KNOW YOUR ROUTER TABLE
See Figure 1.
Before attempting to use this product, familiarize yourself
with all operating features and safety rules.
CUTTER GUARD ASSEMBLY
The cutter guard assembly provides a barrier to protect
the operator from contact with the cutter and is adjustable
for all types of cuts and materials. The cutter guard also
doubles as a vacuum attachment. You can insert a
standard shop vacuum into the top of the clear plastic
cutter guard to keep dust to a minimum.
FENCE ASSEMBLY
The fence assembly provides an adjustable surface to
support and guide the work.
MITER GAUGE
A miter gauge is used for mitered routing and to help
support wider pieces.
STARTING PIN
When you are unable to use the fence for a guide because
the workpiece is odd-shaped or too small, use the start-
ing pin for a guide. Only use piloted cutters when using
the starting pin. Remove the fence and miter gauge when
using the starting pin.
SWITCH
This product is equipped with a power switch that has a
built-in locking feature. This feature is intended to prevent
unauthorized and possible hazardous use by children and
others. If you remove the key during operation, you can
turn the switch off, but you may not turn it on again until
you replace the key.
THROAT PLATES
Five throat plates are included with the router table. The
throat plate provides a stable support surface around the
cutter and prevents objects from falling through the throat
and damaging the spindle.
UNDERTABLE AND REAR SAFETY GUARDS
The undertable guard and rear safety guard ensure that
your hand, loose clothing, and other objects do not come
in contact with the cutter or collet during operation.
_k WARNING: The undertable and rear safety guards
must be securely in place before using the router
table. Failure to do so could result in serious per-
sonal injury.
