Carefully guide the cord in order to avoid accidentally cutting it.
ADJUSTING THE DEPTH OF CUT (FIG. F, G & H)
WARNING: Turn the router off and disconnect it from the power supply.
The depth of cut is the distance (X in figure F) between the depth stop bar (8) and the
depth stop (28). The depth of cut can be set in two different ways as described below.
ADJUSTING THE DEPTH OF CUT USING THE SCALE (FIG. G)
WARNING: Turn the router off and disconnect it from the power supply.
Install the router bit as described previoisly.
Loosen the locking screw (29).
Pull the plunge lock lever (4) up.
Plunge the router down until the router bit touches the workpiece.
Push the plunge lock lever (4) down.
Move the depth stop bar (8) down against the depth stop using the depth stop adjuster
(30). Reset the scale by aligning the zero marking (31) with the arrow (32).
Add the desired depth of cut to the starting position.
Move the depth stop bar (8) to the calculated position using the depth stop adjuster (30).
Tighten the locking screw (29).
Fine adjust using the adjusting knob (33).
Pull the plunge lock lever (4) up and let the router return to its original position.
After switching the router on, plunge it down and make the desired cut.
ADJUSTING THE DEPTH OF CUT USING A PIECE OF WOOD (FIG. H)
WARNING: Turn the router off and disconnect it from the power supply.
Install the router bit and plunge the router down as described previously.
Loosen the locking screw (29).
Move the depth stop bar (8) up using the depth stop adjuster (30).
Place a piece of wood with a thickness equal to the desired depth of cut between the depth
stop (28) and the depth stop bar (8).
Move the depth stop bar (8) down against the wood using the depth stop adjuster (30).
Tighten the locking screw (29).
Fine adjust using the adjusting knob (33).
Remove the piece of wood.
Pull the plunge lock lever (4) up and let the router return to its original position.

ADJUSTING THE TURRET DEPTH STOP (FIG. I)
WARNING: Turn the router off and disconnect it from the power supply.
After turning the turret depth stop to the desired setting, you can fine-adjust the depth stop
to be used. If you want to make several cuts with a different depth of cut, adjust each of the
depth stops.
Turn the depth stop screw (34) up or down as required using a screwdriver.
SOFT START
Your router is equipped with a “soft start” feature which reduces the torque at start up
and allows for increased control of the router.
ELECTRONIC SPEED CONTROL DIAL
The speed of your router is variable. Use the electronic speed control dial (3) to produce
uniform cutting results in wood, plastics and aluminum. Use the lower settings for large
diameter cutters and the higher settings for small diameter cutters.
CONTROL SPEED ELECTRONICS -CSE
Your router is equipped with CSE (control speed electronics)—as you load the router, the
selected cutting speed does not slow down during normal use. The electronic control
governs the motor and gives you a consistent finish to your work. Only under very heavy
loading will the speed of the unit fall below the governed speed.
To set the router speed, rotate the speed control wheel (3). The higher the number the
higher the speed.
