INSTALLING/REMOVING CUTTERS
(Continued)
■ To use cutters with 1/4 in. (6.4 mm) shank bits, the 1/2
in. (13 mm) collet assembly must be removed and re-
placed with the 1/4 in. (6.4 mm) collet assembly. Re-
move the 1/2 in. (13 mm) collet assembly by removing
collet nut, loosening collet screw securing collet to mo-
tor shaft, then removing collet assembly.
NOTE: The collet screw has left hand threads and you
will need a #2 phillips screwdriver to loosen collet screw.
Turn screw clockwise to loosen and counterclockwise to
tighten.
■ Replace with the 1/4 in. (6.4 mm) collet assembly,
securely tightening collet screw in collet to motor shaft,
then reassemble the 1/2 in. (13 mm) collet nut.
See
Figure 5.
Make sure collet can turn freely inside motor
shaft once collet screw is tight.
■ Insert shank of cutter into collet until shank bottoms out,
then pull it out 1/16 in. (1.6 mm) to allow for expansion
when the bit gets hot.
■ Tighten the collet nut securely by turning clockwise with
the wrench provided.
See Figure 4.
WARNING:
If collet nut is not tightened securely, cutter may come out
during use causing serious personal injury.
■ Place spindle lock back in unlock position. Otherwise,
interlocking mechanism of spindle lock will not let you
turn your router on.
DEPTH OF CUT ADJUSTMENTS
See Figures 6, 7, 8, and 9.
We recommend that cuts be made at a depth not exceeding
1/8 in. (3.2 mm) and that several passes be made to reach
depths of cut greater than 1/8 in. (3.2 mm).
■ UNPLUG YOUR ROUTER.
WARNING:
Failure to unplug your router could result in accidental
starting causing serious injury.
■ Place your router on a flat surface, unlock clamping
lever, and turn depth adjusting ring until cutter is inside
subbase.
See Figure 6.
■ Turn the depth adjusting ring until tip of cutter touches
flat surface (zero depth of cut).
See Figure 7.
Next turn
depth indicator ring until the zero lines up with the indi-
cator point on front of motor housing.
See Figure 6.
