Safety Points

1. Disconnect power tool attachment from power supply when not in use, before servicing, when making adjustments and when changing accessories such as cutters. Ensure switch is in “off” position and cutter has stopped rotating.
2. Read and understand instructions supplied with power tool, attachment and cutter.
3. Current Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for eye, ear and respiratory protection must be worn. Keep hands, hair and clothes clear of the cutter.
4. Before each use check cutter is sharp and free from damage. Do not use if cutter is dull, broken or cracked or if any damage is noticeable or suspected. Only use tools for woodworking to EN847 safety standard. Ensure cutting tool is suitable for application.
5. The maximum speed (max) marked on tool or in instructions or on packaging shall not be exceeded. Where stated, the speed range should be adhered to.
6. Insert the shank into the router collet at least all the way to the marked line indicated on the shank. This ensures at least 3⁄4 of the shank length is held in collet. Ensure clamping surfaces are clean.
7. Check all fixing and fastening nuts, bolts and screws on power tool, attachment and cutting tools are correctly assembled, tight and to correct torque setting before use.
8. Ensure all visors, guards and dust extraction is fitted.
9. The direction of routing must always be opposite to the cutter’s direction of rotation.
10. Do not switch the power tool on with the cutter touching the workpiece.
11. Trial cuts should be made in waste material before starting any project.
12. Repair of tools is only allowed according to tool manufacturers’ instructions.
13. Do not take deep cuts in one pass, take shallow passes to reduce the side load applied to the cutter.
14. User must be competent in using woodworking equipment before using our products. Dress properly, no loose clothing/ jewellery, wear protective hair covering for long hair.
15. Consider working environment before using tools. Ensure working position is comfortable and component is clamped securely. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Check work area for obstructions. Keep control of power tool at all times.
