SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with
product (gained from repeated use)
replace strict adherence to router safety
rules. If you use this tool unsafely or
incorrectly, you can suffer serious per-
sonal injury.
1. Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when
performing an operation where the cutting tool
may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Con-
tact with a "live" wire will make exposed metal parts
of the tool "live" and shock the operator.
2. Wear hearing protection during extended period
of operation.
3. Handle the bits very carefully.
4. Check the bit carefully for cracks or damage
before operation. Replace cracked or damaged
bit immediately.
5. Avoid cutting nails. Inspect for and remove all
nails from the workpiece before operation.
6. Hold the tool firmly with both hands.
7. Keep hands away from rotating parts.
8. Make sure the bit is not contacting the work-
piece before the switch is turned on.
9. Before using the tool on an actual workpiece, let
it run for a while. Watch for vibration or wobbling
that could indicate improperly installed bit.
10. Be careful of the bit rotating direction and the
feed direction.
11. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool
only when hand-held.
12. Always switch off and wait for the bit to come to
a complete stop before removing the tool from
workpiece.
13. Do not touch the bit immediately after operation;
it may be extremely hot and could burn your
skin.
14. Always lead the power supply cord away from
the tool towards the rear.
15. Do not smear the tool base carelessly with thin-
ner, gasoline, oil or the like. They may cause
cracks in the tool base.
16. Draw attention to the need to use cutters of the
correct shank diameter and suitable for the
speed of the tool.
17. Some material contains chemicals which may be
toxic. Take caution to prevent dust inhalation
and skin contact. Follow material supplier safety
data.

Place the tool on a flat wood surface. Open the lock lever.
Turn the motor unit until the bit just touches the flat sur-
face. Close the lock lever.
Rotate the scale ring until the zero-line is on the index
line on the motor unit. One graduation on the scale ring
means the cutting edge of the bit is exposed 1/64" below
the base. While holding up the base slightly, open the
lock lever and turn the motor unit clockwise until the
index line on the motor unit reaches the desired depth
indicated on the scale ring. Close the lock lever firmly.
