Tool settings
Disconnect the plug from the
power source before making any adjust-
ments, changing accessories, or storing
power tools.
Electronic control
The machine features full-wave electronics
with the following properties:
Smooth start-up
The electronically controlled smooth start-up
function ensures that the machine starts up
smoothly.
Speed control
You can regulate the rotational speed
steplessly between 10000 and 26000 rpm
using the adjusting wheel [3-3]. This enables
you to optimise the cutting speed to suit the
respective material.
Constant speed
The preselected motor speed remains con-
stant through electronic control. This ensures
a uniform cutting speed even when under
strain.
Temperature control
To prevent overheating, the safety electronics
switches the machine off when it reaches a
critical motor temperature. Let the machine
cool down for approx. 3-5 minutes before us-
ing it again. The machine requires less time
to cool down if it is running, i.e. in neutral
position.
Changing the router table
The “large surface router table” is already t-
ted as standard. The large contact surface and
precision adjustment features of this router
table enable a high degree of accuracy. Other
router tables are included in the accessories
programme.
