Replacing the base
CATION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before removing or installing the base.
Removing the existing base
For Model RP1100/RP1101 (Fig. 1)
Loosen the lock screw. Turn the motor unit counter-
clockwise while holding the base. Turn it until the pin
in the base is disengaged from the groove in the
motor unit. Lift the motor unit free from the base.
For Model RF1100/RF1101 (Fig. 2)
Open the lock lever. Turn the motor unit counterclock-
wise while holding the base. Turn it until the pin in the
base is disengaged from the groove in the motor unit.
Lift the motor unit free from the base.
Installing plunge router base
Place the plunge router base keeping the label front.
Insert the motor unit into the base keeping the cord
left side. (Fig. 3)
Rotate the motor unit clockwise until it stops. Tighten
the lock screw securely. (Fig. 4)
HOW TO USE
Adjusting depth of cut (Fig. 5)
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before adjusting the depth of cut.
Place the tool on a flat surface. Press the lock lever
down and lower the tool body until the bit just touches
the flat surface. Release the lock lever to hold the tool
body down. Turn the stopper pole setting nut counter-
clockwise to loosen. While pressing the fast-feed but-
ton, lower the stopper pole until it makes contact with
the adjusting hex bolt. Align the depth pointer with the
"0" graduation. The depth of cut is indicated on the
scale by the depth pointer. While pressing the fast-
feed button, raise the stopper pole until the desired
depth of cut is obtained. Minute depth adjustments
can be obtained by turning the adjusting knob
(1.6 mm per turn). After adjusting the depth of cut,
turn the stopper pole setting nut clockwise to fasten
the stopper pole firmly.
Now, your predetermined depth of cut can be
obtained by pressing the lock lever and then lowering
the tool body until the stopper pole makes contact
with the adjusting hex bolt of the stopper block.

Nylon nut (Fig. 6)
CAUTION:
Do not lower the nylon nut too low or the bit will pro-
trude dangerously.
By turning the nylon nut, the upper limit of the tool
body can be adjusted. When the tip of the bit is
retracted more than required in relation to the base
plate surface, turn the nylon nut to lower the upper
limit.
CAUTION:
• Since excessive cutting may cause overload of the
motor or difficulty in controlling the tool, the depth of
cut should not be more than 15 mm at a pass when
cutting grooves with an 8 mm diameter bit.
• When cutting grooves with a 20 mm diameter bit,
the depth of cut should not be more than 5 mm at a
pass.
• For extra-deep grooving operation, make two or
three passes with progressively deeper bit settings.
Stopper block (Fig. 7)
The stopper block has three adjusting hex bolts
which raise or lower 0.8 mm per turn. You can easily
obtain three different depths of cut using these
adjusting hex bolts without readjusting the stopper
pole.
Adjust the lowest hex bolt to obtain the deepest depth
of cut. Adjust the two remaining hex bolts to obtain
shallower depths of cut. The differences in height of
these hex bolts are equal to the differences in depths
of cut.
To adjust the hex bolts, first loosen the hex nuts on
the hex bolts with the wrench and then turn the hex
bolts. After obtaining the desired position, tighten the
hex nuts while holding the hex bolts in that desired
position.
The stopper block is also convenient for making three
passes with progressively deeper bit settings when
cutting deep grooves.
