RRT1600 Milling Machine
Instruction Manual ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS

Important!
It is essential that you read the instructions in this manual before assembling, maintaining and operating the product.
Safety, performance, and dependability have been given top priority in the design of your plunge router.

INTENDED USE

The plunge router is intended to be used only by adults who have read and understood the instructions and warnings in this manual and can be considered responsible for their actions.
It is designed for normal and plunge routing of wood and similar materials. It is intended to be used by a single operator while holding both of the handles and guiding the base of the router smoothly across the surface of the workpiece. The workpiece should be securely clamped should never attempt to operate the router and hold the workpiece at the same time.
It is designed to be fitted with router bits with straight shanks that are compatible with the 6, 8 or 12 mm collet-type bit holding system and which have a maximum speed rating equal to or greater than the maximum speed of the router.
The plunge router can be used for:

• Cutting grooves and shaping edges in wood.
• Freehand cutting of letters, grooves, and patterns in wood
• Chamfering, rebating, dadoing, and dovetailing in wood.

The router is not intended to be mounted on a fixture or workbench unless specific instructions about how to do this are given by the manufacturer of the router.
Do not use the plunge router in any way not described in this manual.
WARNING
Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications provided with this power tool.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

ROUTER SAFETY WARNINGS

• Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only, because the cutter may contact its own cord. Cutting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
• 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.
• If the product is provided for the connection of dust extraction and collecting equipment, ensure these are connected and properly used.
• Always use bits of the correct shank diameter according to the available collet dimmension. Only use bits manufactured according to EN 847-1. Do not use damaged bits.
• Always wear protective eye wear when operating the touter. When necessary. wear a dust mask appropriate  to the material being cut.
•  Keep mains lead clear from the working range of the product. Always lead the cable away behind you.
• Never reach into the area near the cutting bit when the touter is running.
• Chips and splinters must not be removed while the product is running.
• Do not use router bits with maximum speed rating less than the maximum speed of the router. Router bits may  come apart and cause serious personal injury.
• Use only rotary cutting bits of the correct shank diameter for the collet mounted.
• Use only rotary cutting bits suitable for the speed of the product.

WARNING
Always feed the product into the workpiece against the rotational direction of the bit. Feeding in the same rotational direction of the bit may cause the product to jump up from the workpiece, resulting in loss of control.
Even when the product is used as prescribed. it is still impossible to completety eliminate certain residual risk factors. The following hazards may arise and the operator should pay special attention to avoid the following:
a Injury caused by vibration ~ Limit exposure. See Risk Reduction.

• Injury caused by flying debris
  —  Wear eye protection at ail times.

• Injury caused by dust
  — Wear eye protection at all times. Wear appropriate dust mask with suitable filters that can protect against particles from the material being worked on.
  Do not eat, drink, or smoke in the work area. Ensure adequate ventilation.

• Injury caused by electric shock
  — The cutting bit may contact hidden wiring causing parts of the product to become live. Always hold the product by the designated handles and take care when blind cutting into walls and floors where cables may be hidden.
  care when blind cutting into walls and floors where
  cables may be hidden.

• Injury from contact with the cutting bits
  — The bits are sharp and will become hot during use.
  Wear gloves when changing bits. Keep hands away from the cutting area at all times. Never hold the workpiece being cut in your hands or across your leg. Secure the workpiece whenever possible.

• Injury caused by noise
  — Prolonged exposure to noise will increase the risk of hearing damage, and the effects are cumulative. When using power tools for any extended period of time, wear hearing protection.

RISK REDUCTION

It has been reported that vibrations from handheld tools may contribute to a condition called Raynaud’s Syndrome in certain individuals. Symptoms may inciude tingling.  numbness, and blanching of the fingers, usually apparent upon exposure to cold. Hereditary factors, exposure to cold and dampness, diet. smoking. and work practices are all thought to contribute to the development of these symptoms. There are measures that can be taken by the operator to possibly reduce the effects of vibration:

• Keep your body warm in cold weather. When operating the product, wear gloves to keep the hands and wrists warm. It is reported that cold weather is a major factor contributing to Raynaud’s Syndrome.
• After each period of operation, exercise to increase blood circulation.
• Take frequent work breaks. Limit the amount of exposure per day.

if you experience any of the symptoms of this condition. immediately discontinue use and see your doctor about these symptoms.

WARNING
Injuries may be caused or aggravated by prolonged use of a tool. When using any tool for prolonged periods, ensure you take regular breaks.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING
The product should never be connected to a power supply when assembling parts, making adjustments, cleaning, performing maintenance, or when the product is not in use. Disconnecting the product from the power supply will prevent accidental starting that could cause serious injury.
WARNING
When servicing, use only original manufacturer’s replacement parts, accessories and attachments. Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause product  damage.
WARNING
Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum- based products, penetrating oils, etc., come in contact with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken or destroy plastic which may result in serious personal injury.

• Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most plastics are susceptible to various types of commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use clean cloths to remove dirt, carbon dust, etc.
• Electrical tools used on fiberglass material, wallboard, spackling compounds, or plaster are subject to accelerated wear and possible premature failure because the fiberglass chips and grindings are highly abrasive to bearings, brushes, commutators, etc. We
  do not recommend using the productl for extended work on these types of materials.

WARNING
Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side  shields during power tool operation. If operation is dusty,also wear a dust mask.

• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a special cord or assembly available from the manufacturer or its service agent.
• For greater safety and reliability, all repairs should be performed by an authorised service centre.

LUBRICATION
All of the bearings in the product are lubricated with a the product under normal operating conditions. Therefore, no further lubrication is required.

WARNING
The vibration emission level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance with a standardised test given in EN 62841 and may be used to compare one tool with another. It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure. The declared vibration emission level represents the main applications of the tool. However if the tool is used for different applications, with different accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration emission may differ. This may significantly increase the exposure level over the total working period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also take into account the times when the tool is switched off or when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may significantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period. Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the accessories, keep the hands warm, organisation of work patterns.
