Triton JOF 001 Instrucciones De Uso página 7

Fitting a router bit
1. Loosen the collet sufficiently to insert the router bit. If
removing a router bit, use the Spanner (15) to loosen
the collet
2. Insert the router bit fully into the collet, then use the
spanner to tighten the collet so that it holds the bit
firmly
3. Hold the body of the machine securely and disengage
the plunge lock lever. This will release the collet lock
and the power lock out cover
Dust extraction
Dust Port
• The Triton JOF Router is equipped with a Dust Extraction
Port (6) for chip extraction above the cut. It accepts
38mm (1½") O.D. hose, supplied with the Triton Dust
Collector (DCA300)
• The hose screws into position via a left hand thread
(anticlockwise)
Optional Dust Chute Accessory
• An optional dust chute is available for effective chip
extraction alongside the cut zone. It can be connected to
any 38mm (1½") O.D. hose
• This accessory kit (part no. TGA150) also includes 7
template guide bushes and is available through your
local Triton retailer
Depth stop & turret
• The Depth Stop (12) and Turret (9) enable accurate pre-
setting of two different cut depths
Zeroing the router
1. Fit the router bit you require and place the router, right
side up, on the work bench
2. Rotate the Turret (9) until the fixed post is beneath the
depth stop
3. Loosen the Depth Stop Lock Knob (11) so that the depth
stop is fully released
4. Release the Plunge Lock Lever (7), then plunge the
router until the tip of the bit is in contact with the
surface of the work bench
5. Now tighten the depth stop lock knob so that the depth
stop is locked in its current position
Pre-setting the cut depths
1. The top of the fixed post now provides an accurate
datum, and the depth of cut can be set by reference to
the graduations printed on the side of the fixed post
2. To set a cut depth, rotate the thumbwheel on one of the
Turret Stops (9) until the top of the thumbwheel aligns
with the depth of cut required (as shown on the fixed
post) For example, for a cutting depth of 3mm, rotate
the thumbwheel until the top is aligned with the 3mm
mark on the fixed post.
3. To pre-set a second depth, repeat the procedure with
the second thumbwheel
Plunging to pre-set depth
• Rotate the turret until the thumbwheel at the required
depth is positioned beneath the depth stop
• Now, when you plunge the router, the depth stop will
hit the thumbwheel and retain the router at the precise
depth required
Variable speed control
• Router speed settings are not critical - generally the
highest speed which does not result in burn marks on
the workpiece should be used. Where stated, always
follow the cutter manufacturer's maximum speed
limitations
• Generally, higher speeds are used for timber and MDF,
lower speeds for synthetic
materials
• Operating at reduced speed
increases the risk of damage
to the router as a result of
overload. At low speeds use
very slow feed rates and/or
multiple shallow cuts
• The Speed Controller (1) is
marked 1 to 5, corresponding approximately with the
speeds and cutter diameters below. Turn the dial to
select the speed required
