Insert the bit all the way into the collet chuck and withdraw it
very slightly ( approx. 2mm;1/16” ). Then tighten the collet
chuck securely with the two wrenches.
These routers accommodate the bits with 1/2” diameter
shank. When using the 1/4” diameter shank bit, replace the
equipped collet chuck with the one for 1/4” diameter shank
bit which is provided as the standard accessory.
To remove the bit, follow the installation procedure in reverse.
OPERATION
Set the tool base on the workpiece to be cut without the bit
making any contact. Then turn the tool on and wait until the
bit attains full speed. Lower the tool body with pressing the
lock lever down. Release the lock lever at the lowest position
and push it further to lock the tool body securely. Move the
tool forward over the workpiece surface, keeping the tool
base flush and advancing smoothly until the cutting is com-
plete.
When doing edge cutting, the workpiece surface should be
on the left side of the bit in the feed direction.
NOTE:
• Make sure that the tool raises automatically when the
lock lever is loosened. The position of the bit must be
higher than the tool base when not operating.
• Moving the tool forward too fast may cause a poor
quality of cut, or damage to the bit or motor. Moving the
tool forward too slowly may burn and mar the cut. The
proper feed rate will depend on the bit size, the kind of
workpiece and depth of cut. Before beginning the cut on
the actual workpiece, it is advisable to make a sample
cut on a piece of scrap lumber. This will show exactly
how the cut will look as well as enable you to check
dimensions.
