Keep hands away from the cutting 8.
area. Do not place hands beneath the
workpiece for any reason. Keep the
base of the router in rm contact with
the workpiece while cutting.
Keep Handles dry, clean, and free of 9.
oil or grease. This will permit better
control of the tool.
Do not use damaged bits.10.
Do not lay the Router down until it 11.
has stopped rotating completely.
Hold the Router rmly when starting, 12.
as startup rotation creates signicant
torque.
Hold the Router rmly while cutting. 13.
The action of the bit against the work-
piece can cause it to “kick out”, jump-
ing rapidly away from the workpiece.
This can be caused by an improper
type of bit, or a dull bit.
Do not handle the Router bit immedi-14.
ately after cutting. It may be very hot,
potentially causing burns or injury.
Avoid overloading the tool. If the 15.
speed drops abnormally, decrease
the pressure on the bit immediately.
Do not apply excessive pressure to
the router while cutting.
Always use sharpened bits. If the bit 16.
stops abruptly, or the bit becomes
blocked, remove the Router from the
workpiece and shut it off.
Do not start the Router while the bit 17.
is in contact with the workpiece. Allow
the tool to reach its normal operating
speed before applying the bit to the
workpiece.
Use caution when setting the Lock-18.
ing Trigger Switch. Be aware that the
router will continue to operate while
the locking mechanism is engaged.
Do not lay the router down or hand it
to another person while the locking
mechanism is engaged.
Before Routing, run the tool for about 19.
10 seconds to ensure that all moving
parts are running smoothly and there
are no loose parts, rattles, or spark-
ing that would indicate damage.
Maintain labels and nameplates on 20.
the tool. These carry important safety
information. If unreadable or miss-
ing, contact Harbor Freight Tools for a
replacement.
Avoid unintentional starting. Prepare 21.
to begin work before turning on the
tool.
Do not lay the tool down until it has 22.
come to a complete stop. Moving
parts can grab the surface and pull
the tool out of your control.
When using a handheld power tool, 23.
maintain a rm grip on the tool with
both hands to resist starting torque.
Do not leave the tool unattended 24.
when it is plugged into an electrical
outlet. Turn off the tool, and unplug it
from its electrical outlet before leav-
ing.
