FITTING THE CENTRING PIN (FIG. F) (CENTRING PIN NOT INCLUDED)
• Fit the edge guide to the router as shown in FIG. B, but upside down.
• Fit the centring pin (22) to the workpiece side of the edge guide with the screw (23) provided.
FITTING THE COPY FOLLOWER (FIG. G) (COPY FOLLOWER NOT INCLUDED)
• Fit the edge guide to the router as shown in FIG. B.
• Fit the 'L' bar (24) to the upper side of the edge guide using the two screws and nuts provided.
• Adjust the rotating attachment (25) on the 'L' bar with the wing knob (26).
USE
WARNING:
Let the tool work at its own pace. Do not overload.
• Carefully guide the cable in order to avoid accidentally cutting it.
ADJUSTING THE DEPTH OF CUT (FIG. H, I & J)
• The depth of cut is the distance X between the depth stop bar (9) and the depth stop (27).
• The depth of cut can be set in two different ways as described below.
ADJUSTING THE DEPTH OF CUT USING THE SCALE (FIG. I)
• Fit the router bit as described above.
• Loosen the locking screw (28).
• Pull the plunge lock lever (4) up.
• Plunge the router down until the router bit touches the workpiece.
• Push the plunge lock lever (4) down.
• Move the pointer (29) in the zero position on the scale (10).
• Add the desired depth of cut to the starting position.
• Move the depth stop bar (9) to the calculated position on the scale.
• Tighten the locking screw (28).
• Fine adjust using the adjusting knob (30).
• Pull the plunge lock lever (4) up and let the router return to its original position.
• After switching the router on, plunge it down and make the desired cut.
ADJUSTING THE DEPTH OF CUT USING A PIECE OF WOOD (FIG. J)
• Fit the router bit and plunge the router down as described above.
• Pull the depth stop bar (9) up.
• Place a piece of wood with a thickness equal to the desired depth of cut between the depth stop (27) and the
depth stop bar (9).
• Tighten the locking screw (28).
• Fine adjust using the adjusting knob (30).
• Remove the piece of wood.
• Pull the plunge lock lever (4) up and let the router return to its original position.
• After switching the router on, plunge it down and make the desired cut.
ADJUSTING THE REVOLVER DEPTH STOP (FIG. K)
After turning the revolver depth stop to the desired setting, you can fine-adjust the depth stop to be used. If you want
to make several cuts with a different depth of cut, adjust each of the depth stops.
• Turn the depth stop screw (31) up or down as required using a screwdriver.
SETTING THE SPEED
• Set the speed control knob (3) to the required speed. Use a high speed for small diameter router bits. Use a low
speed for large diameter router bits.
FITTING THE DUST EXTRACTION ADAPTOR (FIG. L)
When it is not possible to use the edge guide, for example when routing grooves in the back panel of a bookcase to
support shelves, proceed as follows:
22
• Select a piece of wood with a straight edge to use as a batten.
• Place the batten onto the workpiece.
• Move the batten until it is in the correct position to guide the tool.
• Securely clamp the batten to the workpiece.
USING THE TEMPLATE GUIDE (FIG. D) (TEMPLATE GUIDE NOT INCLUDED)
The template guide can be used to make a cutout shape from a template, for instance a letter.
• Secure the template over the workpiece with doublesided tape or 'G' clamps.
• The router bit must extend below the flange of the template guide, to cut the workpiece in the shape of the
template.
USING THE DISTANCE PIECE (FIG. E) (DISTANCE PIECE NOT INCLDUED)
The distance piece can be used for trimming wooden or laminate vertical projections.
USING THE CENTRING PIN (FIG. F) (CENTRING PIN NOT INCLUDED)
The centring pin can be used to cut out circular patterns.
• Drill a hole for the point of the centring pin in the centre of the circle to be cut.
• Place the router on the workpiece with the point of the centring pin in the drilled hole.
• Adjust the radius of the circle with the bars of the edge guide.
• The router can now be moved over the workpiece to cut out the circle.
USING THE COPY FOLLOWER (FIG. G) (COPY FOLLOWER NOT INCLUDED)
The copy follower helps to maintain an equal cutting distance along the edge of irregularly shaped workpieces.
• Place the router on the workpiece at the desired distance from the edge to be copied.
• Adjust the bars of the edge guide until the wheel is in contact with the workpiece.
SWITCHING ON AND OFF
The centring pin can be used to cut out circular patterns.
Switching on
• Keep the lock-off button (2) depressed and press the on/off switch (1).
• Release the lock-off button.
Switching off
• Release the on/off switch.
WARNING:
Always operate the tool with both hands.
HINTS FOR OPTIMUM USE
• When working on outside edges, move the tool counterclockwise (FIG. 13). When working on inside edges, move
the tool clockwise.
• Use HSS router bits for softwood.
• Use TCT router bits for hardwood.
• You can use the tool without a guide (FIG. 14). This is useful for signwriting and creative work. Only make
shallow cuts.
• Refer to the table below for common types of router bits.
