PROPER
CARE OF CUTTERS
Get faster more accurate cutting results by keeping cutters
clean and sharp. Remove all accumulated pitch and gum
from cutters after each use.
When sharpening cutters, sharpen only the inside of the
cutting edge. Never grind the outside diameter. Be sure
when sharpening the end of a cutter to gdnd the clearance
angle the same as odginally ground.
PROPER
CARE OF COLLET
From time to time, it also becomes necessary to clean your
collet and collet nut. To do so, simply remove collet/nut
assembly from motor shaft and clean the dust and chips
that have collected. Then return collet/nut assembly to its
original position.
EXTENSION CORDS
The use of any extension cord will cause some loss of
power. To keep the loss to a minimum and to prevent tool
overheating, use an extension cord that is heavy enough to
carry the current the tool will draw.
A wire gage size (A.W.G.) of at least 14 is recommended
for an extension cord 25 feet or less in length. When
working outdoors, use an extension cord that is suitable for
outdoor use. The cord's jacket will be marked WA.
CAUTION:
Keep extension cords away from
any routing area and position the cord so that it
will not get caught on lumber, tools, etc., during
routing operation.
A
WARNING:
Check extension cords before
each use. If damaged replace immediately.
Never use tool with a damaged cord since
touching the damaged area could cause
electrical shock resulting in sedous injury.
