Starting and Stopping the Motor
CAUTION: Before starting the tool, clear the work area
of all foreign objects. Also keep firm grip on tool to resist
starting torque.
CAUTION: To avoid personal injury and/or damage to
finished work, always allow the power unit to come to
a COMPLETE STOP before putting the tool down.
To turn the unit on, depress the side of the dust‑protected
switch

that has the symbol "I. " To turn the unit off, depress
the side of the switch that has the symbol "O. "
Cutting with the Fixed Base
Set up the router to use the fixed base by following the
instructions in the Assembly and Adjustments section.
After the router is set‑up, install the battery pack as shown
in Fig. C, then set your router speed (refer to Choosing
Router Speed).
NOTE: Always feed the router opposite to the direction in
which the cutter is rotating.
Direction of Feed (Fig. N)
The direction of feed is very important when routing and
can make the difference between a successful job and a
ruined project. The figures show the proper direction of feed
for some typical cuts. A general rule to follow is to move the
router in a counterclockwise direction on an outside cut and
a clockwise direction on an inside cut.
Shape the outside edge of a piece of stock by following
these steps:
1. Shape the end grain, left to right
2. Shape the straight grain side moving left to right
3. Cut the other end grain side
4. Finish the remaining straight grain edge
Choosing Router Speed (Fig. A)
Refer to the Speed Selection Chart to choose a router speed.
Turn the variable speed dial
Soft Start Feature
The compact routers are equipped with electronics to
provide a soft start feature that minimizes the start up torque
of the motor.
Variable Speed Control (Fig. A)
WARNING: If the speed control ceases to
operate, or is intermittent, stop using the tool
immediately. Take it to a CRAFTSMAN factory service
center or a CRAFTSMAN authorized service center
for repair.
WARNING: Always follow the bit manufacturer's
speed recommendations as some bit
designs require specific speeds for safety or
performance. If you are unsure of the proper speed
or are experiencing any type of problem, contact the
bit manufacturer.
This router is equipped with a variable speed dial
7 speeds between 16000 and 30000 RPM. Adjust the speed

NOTICE: The router is equipped with electronics to
monitor and maintain the speed of the tool while
cutting. In low and medium speed operation, the speed
control prevents the motor speed from decreasing.
If you expect to hear a speed change and continue
to load the motor, you could damage the motor by
overheating. Reduce the depth of cut and/or slow the
feed rate to prevent tool damage.

*The speeds in this chart are approximate and are for reference only. Your
router may not exactly produce the speed listed for the dial setting.
NOTE: Make several light passes instead of one heavy pass
for better quality work.
Worklight (Fig. A)
The worklight

is located at the front of the motor unit
To turn on the worklight, switch on the on/off switch
Worklight will remain on 20 seconds after the on/off switch is
moved to the off position.
NOTE: The worklight is for lighting the immediate work
surface and are not intended to be used as a flashlight.
NOTE: If worklight flashes, check the charge on the battery; it
could be low. If it still flashes with a charged battery, the unit
should be taken to a service centre for evaluation.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn unit off and remove the battery pack
before making any adjustments or removing/
installing attachments or accessories. An
accidental start‑up can cause injury.
Your CRAFTSMAN power tool has been designed to operate
over a long period of time with a minimum of maintenance.
Continuous satisfactory operation depends upon proper tool
care and regular cleaning.
Cleaning
WARNING: Blow dirt and dust out of all air vents with
clean, dry air at least once a week. To minimize the
risk of eye injury, always wear ANSI Z87.1 approved
eye protection and an approved dust mask when
performing this procedure.
WARNING: Never use solvents or other harsh
chemicals for cleaning the non‑metallic parts of the
tool. These chemicals may weaken the plastic materials
used in these parts. Use a cloth dampened only with
water and mild soap. Never let any liquid get inside the
tool; never immerse any part of the tool into a liquid.
