STARTING AND STOPPING THE MOTOR
Before starting the router, make sure that the bit is clear of
the workpiece and foreign objects. Also keep a firm grip on
the router to resist starting torque.
Start and stop the motor by moving the switch (A) Fig. 7 to “ON” or “OFF”
position.
To avoid personal injury or damage to finished work,
always allow the motor to come to a COMPLETE STOP
before putting it down.
When through-cutting, provide enough clearance under the
workpiece for the router bit.
