• When cutting grooves with a 20 mm (25/32") diameter bit, the
depth of cut should not be more than 5 mm (3/16") at a pass.
• For extra deep grooving, make two or three passes with
progressively deeper bit settings.
CAUTION:
• After long periods of working at low speeds, allow the machine
to cool down by running it for three minutes at maximum speed,
with no load.
All common routing tasks can be performed with the plunge
cut router on all types of wood and plastic:
- Grooving
- Rabbeting
- Recessing
- Veining
- Profiling
nOTE: Only carbide-tipped bits should be used on panels faced
with plastic laminates. The hard laminates will quickly dull
steel bits.
nOTE: For better plunge sliding movement, frequently clean
the plunge rods

of dust or debris with a DRY cloth only. If
the plunging movement is not moving as smoothly as desired,
lubricate the plunge rods with a dry Teflon™ lubricant.
1. After setting the cutting depth as described, locate the router
such that the bit is directly over the place you will be cutting.
2. With the router running, lower the unit smoothly down into
the workpiece. DO nOT JaM THE ROUTER DOWn.
3. When the tool reaches the pre-set depth, push the plunge
lock lever

to lock.
4. When you have finished routing, push down on the plunge
release lever

to unlock and let the spring lift the router
directly out of the workpiece.
5. Always feed the router opposite to the direction in which the
bit is rotating. Refer to Fig. J.
Moulding Natural Timbers
WARNING: When routing always lock the plunge
locking lever.
When edge moulding natural timbers, always mould the end
grain first, followed by the long grain. This ensures that if there is
breakout, it will be removed when the long grain is routed.
Worklight LEDs (Fig. A, S)
CAUTION: Do not stare into worklight. Serious eye injury
could result.
Two worklight LEDs

are located next to the collet
1. To turn on the worklight, switch on the on/off trigger switch
Worklights will remain on for 20 seconds after the on/off switch
is moved to the off position.
nOTE: The worklight is for lighting the immediate work surface
and is not intended to be used as a flashlight.
nOTE: If worklights flash, check the charge on the battery; it
could be low. If they still flash with a charged battery, the unit
should be taken to a service center for evaluation.
Direction Of Feed (Fig. J)
WARNING: Avoid climb-cutting (cutting in direction opposite
than shown in Fig. J). Climb-cutting increases the chance for loss of
control resulting in possible injury. When climb-cutting is required
(backing around a corner), exercise extreme caution to maintain
control of router. Make smaller cuts and remove minimal material
with each pass.
The direction of feed is very important when routing and can
make the difference between a successful job and a ruined
project. The figures show the proper direction of feed for some
typical cuts. A general rule to follow is to move the router in a
counterclockwise direction on an outside cut and a clockwise
direction on an inside cut.
shape the outside edge of a piece of stock by following
these steps:
1. Shape the end grain, left to right.
2. Shape the straight grain side moving left to right.
3. Cut the other end grain side.
4. Finish the remaining straight grain edge.
Feed Load
Heavy Load Indicator LED (Fig. N)
Your tool is equipped with a heavy load indicator LED
heavy load Indicator LED white triangle is flashing, slow down
the speed of the tool.
The speed at which the bit is fed into the wood must not be too
fast that the motor slows down, or too slow that the bit leaves
burn marks on the face of the wood.
nOTE: Practice judging the speed by listening to the sound of
the motor when routing.

Side Fence Routing (Fig. H)
The side fence is used to guide the router when moulding,
edge profiling or rebating the edge of a workpiece or when
routing grooves and slots in the center of the workpiece,
parallel to the edge.
The edge of the workpiece must be straight and true.
