Save all warnings and instruc-
tions for future reference.
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated
(cordless) power tool.
Router safety warnings
1.
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.
2.
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.
3.
The cutter bit shank must match the designed
collet chuck.
4.
Only use a bit that is rated at least equal to the
maximum speed marked on the tool.
5.
Wear hearing protection during extended
period of operation.
6.
Handle the router bits very carefully.
7.
Check the router bit carefully for cracks or
damage before operation. Replace cracked or
damaged bit immediately.
8.
Avoid cutting nails. Inspect for and remove all
nails from the workpiece before operation.
9.
Hold the tool firmly with both hands.
10. Keep hands away from rotating parts.
11.
Make sure the router bit is not contacting the
workpiece before the switch is turned on.
12. Before using the tool on an actual workpiece,
let it run for a while. Watch for vibration or
wobbling that could indicate improperly
installed bit.
13. Be careful of the router bit rotating direction
and the feed direction.
14. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool
only when hand-held.
15. Always switch off and wait for the router bit to
come to a complete stop before removing the
tool from workpiece.
16. Do not touch the router bit immediately after
operation; it may be extremely hot and could
burn your skin.
17. Do not smear the tool base carelessly with
thinner, gasoline, oil or the like. They may
cause cracks in the tool base.
18. Some material contains chemicals which may
be toxic. Take caution to prevent dust inhala-
tion and skin contact. Follow material supplier
safety data.
19. Always use the correct dust mask/respirator for
the material and application you are working with.
20. Place the tool on stable area. Otherwise falling
accident may occur and cause an injury.
21. Keep cord away from your foot or any objects.
Otherwise an entangled cord may cause a falling
accident and result in personal injury.

WARNING:
DO NOT let comfort or familiarity
with product (gained from repeated use) replace
strict adherence to safety rules for the subject

rules stated in this instruction manual may cause
serious personal injury.
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is
switched off and unplugged before adjusting or
checking function on the tool.
Adjusting the depth of cut

block 4. Adjusting knob 5. Stopper pole
6. Depth pointer 7. Stopper pole setting nut
8. Fast-feed button
1.
Place the tool on a flat surface. Loosen the lock knob
and lower the tool body until the router bit just touches the
flat surface. Tighten the lock knob to lock the tool body.
2.
Turn the stopper pole setting nut counterclockwise.
Lower the stopper pole until it makes contact with the adjust-
ing hex bolt. Align the depth pointer with the "0" graduation.
The depth of cut is indicated on the scale by the depth pointer.
3.
While pressing the fast-feed button, raise the
stopper pole until the desired depth of cut is obtained.
Minute depth adjustments can be obtained by turning
the adjusting knob (1 mm per turn).
4.
By turning the stopper pole setting nut clockwise,
you can fasten the stopper pole firmly.
5.
Now, your predetermined depth of cut can be
obtained by loosening the lock knob and then lowering
the tool body until the stopper pole makes contact with
the adjusting hex bolt of the stopper block.
Nylon nut
CAUTION:
Do not lower the nylon nut too low.
The router bit will protrude dangerously.
The upper limit of the tool body can be adjusted by
turning the nylon nut.

Stopper block
CAUTION:
Since excessive cutting may cause
overload of the motor or difficulty in controlling
the tool, the depth of cut should not be more than
15 mm at a pass when cutting grooves with an 8
mm diameter bit.
CAUTION:
When cutting grooves with a 20
mm diameter bit, the depth of cut should not be
more than 5 mm at a pass.
CAUTION:
For extra-deep grooving opera-
tions, make two or three passes with progres-
sively deeper bit settings.
