This allows the ideal speed to be selected for optimum
material processing, i.e. the speed can be correctly
adjusted to suit the material and bit diameter.
Refer to the table for the relationship between the
number settings on the dial and the approximate tool
speed.

CAUTION:
If the tool is operated continuously at low speeds
•
for a long time, the motor will get overloaded,
resulting in tool malfunction.
The speed adjusting dial can be turned only as far
•
as 6 and back to 1. Do not force it past 6 or 1, or
the speed adjusting function may no longer work.

Installing or removing the bit
1
009854
CAUTION:
Install the bit securely. Always use only the wrench
•
provided with the tool. A loose or overtightened bit
can be dangerous.
Use always a collet which is suitable for the shank
•
diameter of the bit.
Do not tighten the collet nut without inserting a bit
•
or install small shank bits without using a collet
sleeve. Either can lead to breakage of the collet
cone.
Use only router bits of which the maximum speed,
•
as indicated on the bit, does exceed the maximum
speed of the router.
Insert the bit all the way into the collet cone. Press the
shaft lock to keep the shaft stationary and use the
wrench to tighten the collet nut securely. When using
router bits with smaller shank diameter, first insert the
appropriate collet sleeve into the collet cone, then install
the bit as described above.
To remove the bit, follow the installation procedure in
reverse.
OPERATION
CAUTION:
Before operation, always make sure that the tool
•
body automatically rises to the upper limit and the
bit does not protrude from the tool base when the
lock lever is loosened.
Before operation, always make sure that the chip
•
deflector is installed properly.
