Never hold the workpiece in one hand and
the tool in the other hand when in use.
Never place hands near or below cutting
surface. Clamping the material and guiding
the tool with both hands is safer.
Never lay workpiece on top of hard
surfaces, like concrete, stone, etc...
Protruding cutting bit may cause tool to jump.
Always wear safety goggles and dust
mask. Use only in well ventilated area.
Using personal safety devices and working in
safe environment reduces risk of injury.
After changing the bits or making any
adjustments, make sure the collet nut and
any other adjustment devices are securely
tightened. Loose adjustment device can
unexpectedly shift, causing loss of control,
loose rotating components will be violently
thrown.
Never start the tool when the bit is engaged
in the material. The bit cutting edge may grab
the material causing loss of control of the
cutter.
Always hold the tool with two hands during
start-up. The reaction torque of the motor can
cause the tool to twist.
When routing or cutting, the direction of
feed with the bit's cutting edge into the
material is very important. Always feed the
bit into the material in the same direction
as the cutting edge is exiting from the
material. When viewing the tool from the top,
the bit rotates clockwise. If the tool is between
the workpiece and your body, then feed the
tool to your right. If the workpiece is between
the tool and your body, then feed the tool to
your left. Feeding the tool in the wrong
direction causes the cutting edge of the bit to
climb out of the work and pull the tool in the
direction of this feed.

WORK
BIT
Never use dull or damaged bits. Sharp bits
must be handled with care. Damaged bits
can snap during use. Dull bits require more
force to push the tool, possibly causing the bit
to break.
Never touch the bit during or immediately
after the use. After use the bit is too hot to be
touched by bare hands.
Never lay the tool down until the motor has
come to a complete standstill. The spinning
bit can grab the surface and pull the tool out of
your control.
Never use bits that have a cutting diameter
greater than the opening in the base.
Do not use the tool for drilling purposes.
This tool is not intended to be used with drill
bits.
Always use the tool with the depth guide
securely attached and positioned flat
against material being cut. The guide
securely positioned on the material improves
the stability and control of your tool.
When connecting tool to dust collection
and extraction systems, be sure these are
connected and used according to tool and
vacuum instructions. Proper use of dust
collection can reduce dust related hazards.
When using tool with dust collection and
extraction systems, empty the dust
container
frequently during work, after completion of
work, and before storing the tool. Be
extremely careful of dust disposal, materials in
fine particle form may be explosive.
Do not throw dust on an open fire. Fine
dust particles may burn explosively.
When performing sanding and surface
preparation operations with tool connected
to a dust collection and extraction system
be aware of the materials creating the dust.
Combustion from mixture of varnishes,
lacquers, polyurethane, oil or water with dust
particles can occur if there is a static
discharge, electric spark, or excessive heat
causing a fire in the dust collection and
extraction system.
Do not use dust extraction for operations
that include burning, smoking or
smoldering items like hot ashes or sparks.
DIRECTION OF
Fire inside the vacuum tank or bag may occur.
FEED
Dust may smolder and set vacuum on fire
long after work is completed.
