GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

FOR POWER TOOLS

WARNING! Read all instructions.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
The term “power tool” in all of the warnings listed below refers to your mains operated (corded) power tool or battery operated (cordless) power tool.
Save these instructions for future reference!

1. Work area

   • Keep work area clean and well lit.
     Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents.

   • Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gasses or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust of fumes.

   • Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2. Electrical safety

   • Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs which earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.

   • Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
     There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.

   • Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

   • Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.

   • When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.

   • Always use tool in conjunction with a residual circuit breaker device. The use of a residual circuit breaker device reduces the risk of electric shock.

3. Personal safety

   • Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
   • Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
   • Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before plugging in. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
   • Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
   • Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
   • Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
   • If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. The use of these pieces of equipment reduce hazards caused by dust.

4. Power tool use and care

   • Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application.
     The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.

   • Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off.
     Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

   • Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

   • Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

   • Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tools operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.

   • Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
     Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

   • Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits 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 to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from intended could result in a hazardous situation.

   • Secure the workpiece.

5. Service

   • Please use a qualified expert who uses original replacement parts to repair your power tool.
     This will ensure proper functioning of the power tool.

   • If the power cable of this electric power tool is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its customer services department or a similarly qualified person to avoid danger.

INTENDED USE

This device is intended to mill grooves,edges, profiles and slots on a wooden, plastic or light surface, as well as copy milling.
This device is not intended for outdoor use.
Any other uses, and/or modifications to the appliance, are deemed to be improper usage and may result in serious physical injury. Not for commercial applications.
The router is designed for the DIY and hobby sector and is not suitable for commercial use.
The manufacturer or dealer assumes no liability for injuries, losses or damage caused by improper or incorrect use.

SAFETY NOTICES SPECIFIC TO ROUTERS

• Only hold the power tool by the insulated handle areas as the router may touch the tool mains cable. Contact with a live wire could cause metal parts of the device to become live and lead to electric shock.

• Fix and secure the work piece to a stable surface using clamps or other means. When only securing the work piece by hand or against your body it will remain unstable, which could lead to loss of control.

• The permissible rotational speed of the router tool must be at least as high as the maximum speed indicated on the electrical power tool.
  Parts used at higher than permissible speeds may be ruined.

• The router or other parts must fit precisely in the collet (shaft diameter 6/8) of your electric power tool. Cutting tools which do not fit precisely in the collet of the electric power tool turn unevenly, vibrate strongly and can lead to a loss of control.

• Always switch on the electrical power tool before placing it against the work-piece. There is also the risk of kickback if the electric power tool becomes caught in the work-piece.

• Keep your hands away from the cutting area and the router. Keep your second hand on the additional handle or on the engine housing. If you hold the router with both hands, they cannot be injured by the router.

• Never use on metal objects, nails or screws. The router can become damaged and this may lead to higher vibrations.

• Use suitable detectors in order to look for hidden supply lines, or consult your local power authority. Contact with electric lines can lead to fire and electric shocks. Damage to a gas line can lead to explosions. Breaking a water line can cause damages.
