PLEASE KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS

IN A SAFE PLACE
The following symbols are used throughout this manual:

Refer to the instruction manual of your power tool.
Denotes risk of personal injury, loss of life or damage to the tool in case of non-observance of the instructions in this manual.
This unit must not be put into service until it has been established that the power tool to be connected to this unit is in compliance with 2006/42/EC (identified by the marking on the power tool) or UK Statutory Instruments 2008 No. 1597 – The Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulation (identified by UKCA marking on the power tool).

SAFETY
Please read and understand the safety points in these instructions as well as your power tool instructions.

Safety Points

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.
Read and understand instructions supplied with power tool, equipment and cutter.
Current and compliant Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for eye, ear and respiratory protection must be worn. Keep hands, hair and clothes clear of the cutter.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Ensure all visors, guards and dust extraction is fitted.
The direction of routing must always be opposite to the cutter’s direction of rotation.
Do not switch power tool on with the cutter touching the workpiece.
Trial cuts should be made in waste material before starting any project.
Repair of tools is only allowed according to tool manufacturers instructions.
Do not take deep cuts in one pass, take shallow passes to reduce the side load applied to the cutter.
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.
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.
Please keep children and visitors away from tools and work area.
All tools have a residual risk so must therefore be handled with caution.
Only use Trend original spare parts and accessories.
If you require further safety advice, technical information, or spare parts, please call Trend Technical Support or visit www.trend-uk.com

WARNINGS

Whenever clamps are used, ensure they do not foul the router path and that they are securely tightened.
In order to prevent breakout of the laminate, rotation of the cutter and feed direction of the router must always be into the postform edge of worktop.
Ensure worktop is held securely to trestles. Ensure jig is clamped securely to worktop and placed at a comfortable height.
Release plunge on router at end of each cut.
Ensure working position is comfortable. Keep proper footing at all times.
Support waste piece to avoid injury or damage to equipment.

GENERAL NOTES

WARNING! To prevent tear-out/chipping at the front of the mason’s mitre, ensure that the router cutter rotates into the material.

For a Left-Hand 90º Joint, the MALE will be cut with material facing UP, and the FEMALE will be cut with the material facing DOWN (Fig. 3a).
For a Right-Hand 90º Joint, the MALE will be cut with material facing DOWN, and the FEMALE will be cut with the material facing UP (Fig. 3b).
When cutting laminate face UP, ensure that the cutter is set at 3mm depth for the first cut, and 6mm-8mm
(MAX) for subsequent cuts (Fig. 4a).
When cutting laminate face DOWN, complete cuts at 6mm-8mm (MAX), and ensure the final cut is set at 3mm below the laminate material (Fig. 4b).
