Disconnect the plug from the power source
before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing the tool. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the tool accidentally.
Store idle tools out of reach of children and
other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous
in the hands of untrained users.
Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools
sharp and clean. Properly maintained tools,
with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind
and are easier to control. Any alteration or
modification is a misuse and may result in a
dangerous condition.
Check for misalignment or binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts, and any
other condition that may affect the tools
operation. If damaged, have the tool
serviced before using. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained tools. Develop a
periodic maintenance schedule for your tool.
Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces
when performing an operation where the
cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its
own cord. Contact with a "live" wire will make
exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and
shock the operator. If cutting into existing walls
or other blind areas where electrical wiring may
exist is unavoidable, disconnect all fuses or
circuit breakers feeding this worksite.
Always make sure the work surface is free
from nails and other foreign objects. Cutting
into a nail can cause the bit and the tool to
jump and damage the bit.
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.

Safety Rules for Routers
-3-
Use only accessories that are recommended
by the manufacturer for your model.
Accessories that may be suitable for one tool,
may become hazardous when used on another
tool.
Service
Tool service must be performed only by
qualified repair personnel. Service or
maintenance performed by unqualified
personnel could result in a risk of injury. For
example: internal wires may be misplaced or
pinched, safety guard return springs may be
improperly mounted.
When servicing a tool, use only identical
replacement parts. Follow instructions in the
Maintenance section of this manual. Use of
unauthorized parts or failure to follow
Maintenance Instructions may create a risk of
electric shock or injury. Certain cleaning agents
such as gasoline, carbon tetrachloride,
ammonia, etc. may damage plastic parts.
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.
The direction of feeding the bit into the
material is very important and it relates to
the direction of bit rotation. When viewing
the tool from the top, the bit rotates
clockwise. Feed direction of cutting must be
counter-clockwise. NOTE: inside and outside
cuts will require different feed direction, refer to
section on feeding the router. 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.
