WARNING
Risk of injury, electric shock
Always pull the mains plug out of the socket be-
fore performing any type of maintenance on the
machine!
7.1
Electronics
The machine features full-wave phase control elec-
tronics with the following features:
Smooth start-up
The electronically controlled smooth start-up en-
sures that the machine starts up jolt-free.
Speed adjustment
You can regulate the speed steplessly between
10000 and 26000 rpm using the adjusting wheel [1-
8]. This enables you to optimise the cutting speed to
suit the material.
Constant speed
The motor speed remains constant through elec-
tronic control to ensure a uniform cutting speed
even when under load.
Temperature control
To prevent overheating, the safety electronics
switches the machine off when it reaches a critical
motor temperature. Let the machine cool down for
approx. 3–5 minutes before using it again. The ma-
chine requires less time to cool down if it is running,
i.e. in neutral position.
7.2
Replacing router table
The router table for edging is optimally designed for
cutting protruding edging thanks to the large con-
tact surface.
Slide router table onto mounting bolts of ma-
chine [3].
If nec., remove ball bearing brake [3-2].
Secure locking for router table [3-1].
If nec., insert ball bearing brake [3-2].
Removal in reverse order.
7.3
Changing tools
CAUTION
Hot and sharp tools
Risk of injury
Do not use insert tools that are blunt or defec-
tive.
Wear protective gloves.

Slacken union nut [4-2] using open ended span-
ner (SW 19) until the tool can be removed.
Release spindle lock [4-1].
Inserting the tool
Position the cutter [4-3] as far as possible, at
least as far as the marking
shaft, into the open clamping collet.
Push spindle lock [4-1].
Tighten union nut [4-2] using open ended span-
ner (SW 19).
Release spindle lock [4-1].
7.4
Replacing clamping collet
Only suitable tools can be used with the supplied
collets. Collets with 8 mm, 6 mm and 1/4"
(6.35 mm) can be used.
Push spindle lock [5-1].
Unscrew union nut [5-2] fully.
Release spindle lock [5-1].
Remove union nut together with the clamping
collet [5-3] from the spindle. Never separate
the union nut and clamping collet! They form
one unit.
Insert another clamping collet with union nut
into the spindle.
Gently turn union nut. Do not tighten union nut
if there is no cutter inserted!

Setting the Mortise Depth
Slacken locking mechanisms for routing depth
[1-3] + [1-6].
Adjust desired routing depth at the routing
depth setting [1-7].
Secure locking mechanisms for routing depth
[1-3] + [1-6] .
