WARNING: Use caution to avoid being cut by the sharp
cutting edges of the router bit. Use caution if the bit has
recently been in use; it may be HOT and a glove will be
required to handle it.
Alternately, the supplied bit
removal tool can be used to
extract the router bit as
shown in Figures 27 and 28.
Slide the removal tool under
the release flange and into
the bit adapter removal slot
(see Figure 24).
Lift the handle in a gentle prying
motion. The removal tool
straddles the bit adapter to hold
it and keep it from falling as the
bit is released. The bit assembly
will drop out onto the removal
tool as it lifts the release flange.
After removing a bit using the
removal tool, the quick release
chuck may be left un-cocked.
To cock it, push the flange up on
the chuck to prepare for insertion of
another bit.
Chuck Care and Maintenance
The patented quick Release chuck is a precision machine mechanism. As
with any tool, neglect of the quick release chuck will lead to many
preventable problems. With proper care and maintenance the chuck will
provide long, reliable service. Be sure to routinely service the chuck by
doing the following:
WARNING: Always unplug machine before attempting any
troubleshooting or maintenance on the machine.
Check Chuck Tightness: Take time to check the tightness of the
spindle assembly before each project. This includes both the tightness
of the threaded interface of the chuck to the spindle shaft as well as the
slop in the spindle due to bearing wear. Any slop in the spindle will be
reflected in the quality of the cut and will increase force on the chuck
