WARNING: Dust generated by using power tools can be toxic. Some materials may be
chemically treated or coated and be a toxic hazard. Some natural and composite materials may
contain toxic chemicals. Some older paints may contain lead and other chemicals. Avoid prolonged
exposure to dust generated from operating a router. DO NOT allow dust to get onto skin or eyes
and do not allow the dust to enter your mouth to prevent absorption of harmful chemicals. Where
possible, work in a well-ventilated area. Use a suitable dust mask and dust extraction system where
possible. Where there is a higher frequency of exposure, it is more critical that all safety precautions
are followed and a higher level of personal protection is used.

Unpacking Your Tool
• Carefully unpack and inspect your tool. Fully familiarise yourself with all its features
and functions
• Ensure that all parts of the tool are present and in good condition. If any parts are missing
or damaged, have such parts replaced before attempting to use this tool
Before Use
WARNING: Ensure the tool is disconnected from the power supply before attaching or changing
any accessories, or making any adjustments.
Connecting Dust Extraction
IMPORTANT: Dust from certain materials can be toxic. Before using the router, attach a dust
extraction system or vacuum cleaner to the Dust Port (23) and wear respiratory protection. If no
workshop dust extraction system is available or you cannot connect to the Dust Extraction Connector,
clean and vacuum frequently to prevent the build-up of dust and chippings.
Assembly
• Fit the Left Handle (20) and Right Handle (6) to the body of the tool. Screw in until secure.
Do not over-tighten.
Installing a Router Bit
or Changing collet
WARNING: Wear protective gloves when inserting and removing router bits as the cutters have
sharp edges.
Changing Router Bit
1. Ensure the Collet (26) fitted is the correct size for the router bit Shank (29) and has compatible
dimensions with the router (see 'Specification')
2. Turn the router upside down and rest on a rubber mat or similar soft surface
3. Press and hold in the Spindle Lock Button (9) so the spindle lock mechanism will engage when
the Collet Nut (32) is unscrewed with the supplied Spanner (27)
4. The Collet Nut should be only partially unscrewed (image A) so the Shank of the router bit can be
easily pulled out
5. Ensure the Plunge Lock Lever (1) is released and the Depth Stop (17) is set at maximum height
then plunge the router to the lowest height and lock this height with the Plunge Lock Lever
6. Remove the existing router bit (if fitted) then insert the replacement router bit into the Collet,
ensuring that at least 20mm or half of the Shank (whichever is greater) is inserted into the Collet
7. Apply a controlled pressure downwards on the router then release the Plunge Lock Lever and
slowly allow the router to reach full height. Tighten the Collet Nut while holding in the Spindle
Lock Button. Then turn back to the correct side up
Changing Collet
1. Press in the Spindle Lock Button (9) and rotate the spindle so that the lock engages
2. Use the supplied Spanner (27) and unscrew the Collet Nut (32) until it is almost completely
unscrewed (image A)
3. Ensure the Plunge Lock Lever (1) is released and the Depth Stop (17) is set at maximum height.
Plunge the router to the lowest height. Use the Plunge Lock Lever to lock at this height then turn
the router upside down
4. Remove the router bit (if fitted) then the Collet Nut slowly because the Collet (26) has a Spring
(33) below it
5. Remove the fitted Collet and replace with the size required. Replace Collet Nut then fit required
router cutter bit, ensuring the spring remains in place
6. The Collet nut can then be tightened
WARNING: DO NOT overtighten the Collet Nut. This could cause damage to the Collet or the spindle
lock mechanism.
Note: If necessary, measure the Collet opening to ensure the correct size is used. Some imperial
size collets are close to the size of metric collets but should never be substituted. Always use
imperial collets for imperial-size shank router bits and vice versa.
Note: Do not tighten the Collet Nut when there is no router bit fitted. This can bend and damage the
collet. Keep the Collet Nut only partially screwed in until a router bit is fitted.
