Safety Warnings and Precautions

WARNING: When using tool, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of personal injury and damage to equipment. Read all instructions  before using this product

  1. Avoid working alone. If an accident happens, an assistant can provide help.
  2. Avoid electrical shock. Prevent body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and cabinet enclosures.
  3. Keep work area clean. Cluttered areas invite injuries.
  4. Observe work area conditions. Do not operate in damp or wet locations. Don’t expose to rain. Keep work area well-lit.
  5. Keep children away. Children must never be allowed in the work area. Do not let them handle machines, tools, or extension cords.
  6. Store idle equipment. When not in use, tools must be stored in a dry location to inhibit rust. Always lock up tools and keep out of reach of children.
  7. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry as they can be caught in moving parts. Protective, electrically nonconductive clothes, and non-skid footwear are recommended when working. Wear restrictive hair covering to contain long hair.
  8. Use eye and ear protection. Always wear ANSI-approved impact safety goggles.
  9. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Do not reach over or across electrical cables or frames.
  10. Maintain tools with care. Inspect tool cords periodically and, if damaged, have them repaired by an authorized technician.
  11. Use the right tool for the job. Do not attempt to force a small tool or attachment to do the work of a larger industrial tool. There are certain applications for which this tool was designed. Do not modify this tool and do not use this tool for a purpose for which it was not intended.
  12. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, use common sense. Do not operate any :001 when you are tired.
  13. Check for damaged parts. Before using any tool, any part that appears damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended function. Any part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by a qualified technician. Do not use the tool if any switch does not turn on and off properly.
  14. Replacement parts and accessories. When servicing, use only identical replacement parts. Use of any other parts will void the warranty.
  15. Do not operate tool if under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Read warning labels on prescriptions to determine if your judgment or reflexes are impaired while taking drugs. If there is any doubt, do not operate the tool.
  16. Use proper size and type extension cord. If an extension cord is required. It must be of the proper size and type to supply the correct current to the tool without heating up. Otherwise, the extension cord could melt and catch fire, or cause electrical damage to the tool. This tool requires use of an extension cord of 0 to 8 Amps capability (up to 50 feet), with wire size rated at 0.75mn2. Longer extension cords require larger size wire. If you are using the tool outdoors, use an extension cord rated for outdoor use. (Signified by “WA” on the jacket).
  17. Take caution as some woods contain preservatives such as copper chromium arsenate (CCA) which can be toxic. When cutting these materials extra care should be taken to avoid inhalation and minimize skin contact.
  18. Maintenance. For your safety, service and maintenance should be performed regularly by a qualified technician.

NOTE: Performance of this tool may vary depending on local line voltage. Extension cord usage may also affect tool performance.
Warning: The warnings, cautions, and instructions discussed in this instruction manual cannot cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be understood by the operator that common sense and caution are factors which cannot be built into this product, but must be supplied by the operator.

Operation

  1. Before using, read and understand all instructions and safety warnings in the instruction manual provided by the manufacturer of the router being used. Verify that control switch rocker is in the OFF position. Plug the control switch’s electrical cord into the outlet of the control switch.
  2. Insert the control switch plug into an electrical outlet or extension cord (See #16 under Safety Warnings and Precautions regarding extension cords.)
  3. For variable speed control, set the rocker switch (8) to VAR and turn the speed adjustment knob (10) to low (L), medium (M), or high (H) speed.
  4. For full speed operation, set the rocker switch (8) to OFF.
  5. When ready, press the speed control switch to the VAR position to begin routing.
