OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
5. Remove the Collet Nut (15) and clean the spindle.
6. Insert the appropriate Collet (3) into the spindle and screw on the collet nut
hand tight.
CAUTION: Never tighten the collet on this unit without first installing a router bit.
Tightening an empty collet can damage the collet.
To insert a router bit:
1. Position the router on its side on the table with the Router Base (4) pointing
towards you.
2. Loosen the Collet Nut (15). Clean and insert the shaft of the router bit into the
collet.
3. Ensure that the router bit shaft is inserted into the collet at least 3/4". If the
shaft "bottoms" out, back it out 1/16" to allow for proper tightening.
. Press the Spindle Lock (14), hold it in position, and tighten the Collet Nut
(15).
5. Be sure to unplug your router and repeatedly check the tightness of the Collet
Nut (15) when using your router over an extended period.
CAUTION: Handle router bits with care. They are extremely sharp and may
cause cuts and or serious injury.
CAUTION: Before switching the router on, ensure that the collet nut is tight.
