Installing or removing router bit
CAUTION:
Install the router bit securely.
Always use only the wrench provided with the
tool. A loose or overtightened router bit can be
dangerous.
CAUTION:
Always use a collet cone which is
suitable for the shank diameter of the router bit.
CAUTION:
Do not tighten the collet nut with-
out inserting a router bit or install a small shank
router bit without using a collet sleeve. Either can
lead to breakage of the collet cone.
CAUTION:
Use only router bits of which the
maximum speed, as indicated on the router bit,
does exceed the maximum speed of the router.
Insert the router bit all the way into the collet cone.
Press the shaft lock and tighten the collet nut with the
wrench.

When using the router bit with smaller shank diameter,
first insert the appropriate collet sleeve into the collet
cone, then install the router bit.

Installing or removing the chip
deflector
CAUTION:
Before operation, always make
sure that the chip deflector is installed properly.
To install the chip deflector, insert the chip deflector into
a groove, aligning the hole of the chip deflector with the
protrusion.

To remove the chip deflector, tilt the upper part of the
chip deflector forwards and pull it out.

OPERATION
Adjusting the cutting depth
To adjust the cutting depth, release the lock lever, then
lower the body. After the adjustment, turn the lock lever
firmly to secure the body.

Adjusting cutting depth with the
stopper screw
1.
Place the tool on the flat surface.
2.
Select the stopper screw by rotating the stopper
base.

3.
Loosen the fixing nut, then pull up the stopper pole
while pressing the feed button.

4.
Release the lock lever, push down the tool until
the tip of the router bit touches the flat surface, and then
turn the lock lever to secure the tool.

6.
Slide the depth pointer so that the pointer indi-
cates "0" on the scale.

7.
Adjust the cutting depth by pulling up the stopper
pole while pressing the feed button.

8.
To perform fine adjustment of the cutting depth,
turn the dial on the stopper pole so that it indicates "0".
► Fig.18: 1. Dial
9.
Turn the head of the stopper pole to obtain the
desired depth. To increase the depth, turn the head
counterclockwise. To decrease the depth, turn the
head clockwise. (The depth changes by 1 mm per one
revolution.)

11.
Release the lock lever.

By pushing down the tool until the stopper pole meets
the stopper screw, you can obtain the depth of cut which
you adjusted by above procedure.
Adjusting the upper limit of the tool
body
The upper limit of the tool body can be adjusted by
turning the nylon nut.
► Fig.22: 1. Nylon nut
CAUTION:
Do not lower the nylon nut too low.
The router bit will protrude dangerously.
General operation
CAUTION:
Before operation, always make
sure that the tool body automatically rises to
the upper limit and the router bit does not pro-
trude from the tool base when the lock lever is
loosened.
1.
Set the base on the workpiece to be cut without
the router bit making any contact.
