GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

Read all safety warnings and instructions. Failure to heed warnings and follow instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

Keep safety warnings and instructions for future reference. The term “power tool” in the safety warnings refers to your mains operated (corded) power tool or battery operated (cordless) power tool.

WORKING AREA

• Keep working area clean and well lit. Untidy and dark areas can lead to accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in potentially explosive surroundings, for example, in the presence of inflammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
• Keep children and bystanders at a distance when operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control of it.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

• Always check that the power supply corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate.
• Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use adapter plugs with earthed power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce the risk of an electric shock.
• Avoid body contact with earthed surfaces such as pipes, radiators, kitchen ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of an electric shock if your body is earthed.
• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. If water gets inside a power tool, it will increase the risk of an  electric shock.
• Do not damage the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep the cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of an electric shock.
• When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cable suitable for outdoor use. Using a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of an electric shock.
• If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a power supply protected by a residual current device (RCD). Using an RCD reduces the risk of an electric shock.

PERSONAL SAFETY

• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool when you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention when operatinga power tool may result in serious personal injury.
• Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Using safety equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid safetyshoes, a hard hat, or hearing protection whenever it is needed will reduce the risk of personal injury.
• Avoid accidental starts. Ensure the switch is in the off position before inserting the plug. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in power tools when the switch is in the on position makes accidents more likely.
• Remove any adjusting keys or spanners before turning on the power tool. A spanner or key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
• Do not reach out too far. Keep your feet firmly on the ground at all times. This will enable you retain control over the power tool in unexpected situations.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from the power tool. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can become entangled in the moving parts..
• If there are devices for connecting dust extraction and collection facilities, please ensure that they are attached and used correctly. Using such devices can reduce dust-related hazards.

POWER TOOL USE AND CARE

• Do not expect the power tool to do more than it can. Use the correct power tool for what you want to do. A power tool will achieve better results and be safer if used in the context for which it was designed.
• Do not use the power tool if the switch cannot turn it on and off. A power tool with a broken switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
• Disconnect the plug from the power source before making adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
• Store power tools, when not in use, out of the reach of children and do not allow people who are not familiar with the power tool or these instructions to operate it. Power tools are potentially dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
• Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or jammed moving parts, breakages or any other feature that might affect the operation of the power tool. If it is damaged, the power tool must be repaired. Many accidents are caused by using poorly maintained power tools.
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to jam and are easier to control.
• Use the power tool, accessories and cutting tools, etc., in accordance with these instructions and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, taking into account the working conditions and the work which needs to be done. Using a power tool in ways for which it was not intended can lead to potentially hazardous situations.

SERVICE

Your power tool should be serviced by a qualified specialist using only standard spare parts. This will ensure that it meets the required safety standards.

Special safety instructions for Router

• Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, because the cutter may contact its own cord. Cutting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and shock the operator.
• Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by your hand or against the body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.
• Wear hearing protection during extended period of operation.
• Handle the bits very carefully.
• Check the bit carefully for cracks or damage before operation. Replace cracked or damaged bit immediately.
• Avoid cutting nails. Inspect for and remove all nails from the workpiece before operation.
• Hold the tool firmly.
• Keep hands away from rotating parts.
• Make sure the bit is no contacting the workpiece before the switch is turned on.
• Before using the tool on an actual workpiece, let it run for a while. Watch for  vibration or wobbling that could indicate improperly installed bit.
• Be careful of the bit rotating direction and the feed direction.
• Do no leave the tool running. Operate the tool only when hand-held.
• Always switch off and wait for the bit to come to a complete stop before removing the tool from workpiece.
• Do not touch the bit immediately after operation; it may be extremely hot and could burn your skin.
• Do not smear the tool base carelessly with thinner, gasoline, oil or the like. They may cause cracks in the tool base.
• Use bits of the correct shank diameter suitable for the speed of the tool.
• Some material contains chemicals which may be toxic. Take caution to prevent dust inhalation and skin contact. Follow material supplier safety data.
• Always use the correct dust mask / respirator for the material and application you are working with.

ASSEMBLY

• Insert the bit all the way into the collet cone and tighten the collet nut securelt with  the two wrenchesor by pressing the shaft lock and using the provided wrench. 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. Move the tool forward over the workpiece surface, keeping the tool base flush and advancing smoothly until the cutting is complete. When doing edge cutting, the workpiece surface should be on the left side of the bit in the feed direction.

• When using the trimmer shoe, the straight guide or the trimmer guide, be sure to keep it on the right side in the feed direction. This will help to keep it flush with the side of the workpiece.

• Templet guide (optional accessory)
  The templet guide provides a sleeve through which the bit passes, allowing use of the trimmer with templet patterns. Loosen the screws and remove the base protector. Place the templet guide on the base and replace the base protector. Then secure the base protector by tightening the screws. Secure the templet to the workpiece. Place the tool on the templet and move the tool with the templet guide sliding along the side of the templet.

• Straight guide (optional accessory)
  The straight guide is effectively used for straight cuts when chamfering or grooving. Attach the guide plate to the straight guide with the bolt and wing nut. Attach the straight guide with the clamp screw. Loosen the wing nut on the straight guide and adjust the distance between the bit and the straight guide. At the desired distance, tighten the wing nut securely. When cutting, move the tool with the straight guide flush with the side of the workpiece.

• Circular work
  Circular work may be accomplished if you assemble the straight huide and guide plate as shown in the figures. Min and max radius of circles to be cut (distance between the  center of circle and thecenter of bit) are as follows: Min 70mm, Max: 221mm. For cutting circles between 70mm and 121mm in radius. For cutting circles between 121mm and 221mm in radius.

• Circles between 172mm and 186mm in radius cannot be cut using this guide.
