Bosch Power Tools 1619EVS Router User Manual


 
Bosch plunge routers are designed for speed,
accuracy and convenience in performing
cabinet work, routing, fluting, beading, cove-
cutting, dovetails, etc. This will enable you to
accomplish inlay work, decorative edges and
many types of special carving.
PLUNGING ACTION
The plunge feature simplifies depth
adjustments and will allow the cutting bit to
easily and accurately enter the workpiece. To
lower, push plunge lock lever to the left, apply
downward pressure until you reach desired
depth, and release pressure on lever to lock
(Fig. 7). The plunge lock lever is spring loaded
and returns automatically to the locked
position. To raise the router, push plunge lock
lever to the left, release pressure on router and
the router will automatically retract the bit from
the workpiece. It is advisable to retract the bit
whenever it is not engaged in workpiece.
INSTALLING TEMPLET GUIDE ADAPTER
Place templet guide adapter over the holes in
the center of the sub-base, and align the two
threaded holes in the bottom of adapter with
the countersunk holes in sub-base. Fasten
adapter with the screws provided. Note that the
adapter is reversible, so the release lever may
be positioned as desired (Fig. 6).
ROUTER DUST COLLECTION
Your router is equipped with a dust extraction
hood. If you have a shop vacuum system, you
can attach the dust extraction hood for improved
visibility, accuracy and utility, particularly in
freehand routing.
To attach, align tabs on hood with notches in
base, and position as shown. Rotate hood
slightly counter-clockwise and secure adapter to
base with the thumbscrew provided (Fig. 5).
To further enhance the dust collection efficiency,
insert the extraction enhancement ring. To
remove, press the two tabs inward, and lift out.
Make sure ring does not touch bit at any time.
The dust extraction hood itself is sized to accept
35mm vacuum hoses. Also included is an
adapter that will connect the hood to 1-1/4” and
1-1/2” vacuum hoses.
Also available as an optional accessory is a
special dust collection for edge forming. Do not
use both hoods at the same time.
