DeWalt DCW600 Instructions

7
ENGLISH
• ALWAYS remove the battery before making adjustments
or changingbits.
• Keep hands clear of bits when motor is running to
prevent personalinjury.
• Never touch the bit immediately after use. It may be
extremelyhot.
• Provide clearance under workpiece for router bit when
through-cutting.
• Tighten collet nut securely to prevent the bit
fromslipping.
• Never tighten collet nut without abit.
• Do not use router bits with a diameter in excess of
30mm in thistool.
• Avoid climb-cutting (cutting in direction opposite than
shown in FigureO). Climb-cutting increases the chance
for loss of control resulting in possible injury. When
climb-cutting is required (backing around a corner), exercise
extreme caution to maintain control of router. Make smaller
cuts and remove minimal material with eachpass.
• Always use straight-cutters, rabbet-cutters, profile cutters,
slotter cutters or grooved knives with a shank diameter that
corresponds to the size of the collet in yourtool.
• Always use bits suitable for a speed of min. 30000 min
-1
and
markedaccordingly.
• Do not hand-hold the router in an upside-down or
horizontal position. The motor can separate from the base if
not properly attached according to theinstructions.
• Before starting the motor clear the work area of all
foreignobjects.
• Do not use in a routertable.
• Always keep the chip shield (if included) clean and
inplace.
• Do not press spindle lock button while the motor is
running. Doing so can damage the spindlelock.
• Always make sure the work surface is free from nails and
other foreign objects. Cutting into a nail can cause the bit
and the tool tojump.Residual Risks
In spite of the application of the relevant safety regulations
and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual risks
cannot be avoided. These are:
• Impairment ofhearing.
• Risk of personal injury due to flyingparticles.
• Risk of burns due to accessories becoming hot
duringoperation.
• Risk of personal injury due to prolongeduse.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Electrical Safety
The electric motor has been designed for one voltage only.
Always check that the battery pack voltage corresponds to the
voltage on the rating plate. Also make sure that the voltage of
your charger corresponds to that of yourmains.
Your DeWALT charger is double insulated in
accordance with IEC60335; therefore no earth wire
isrequired.
contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid
ejected from the battery may cause irritation orburns.
ad ) Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or
modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit
unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire, explosion or risk
of injury.
ae ) Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or
excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature
above 130 °C may causeexplosion.
af ) Follow all charging instructions and do not charge
the battery pack or tool outside the temperature
range specified in the instructions. Charging
improperly or at temperatures outside the specified range
may damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.
Service
ag ) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts. This
will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
ah ) Never service damaged battery packs. Service
of battery packs should only be performed by the
manufacturer or authorized service providers.
Additional Specific Safety Rules for
CompactRouters
• Use clamps or another practical way to secure and
support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the
work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and may
lead to loss ofcontrol.
• DO NOT cutmetal.
• Keep handles and gripping surfaces dry, clean, and
free from oil and grease. This will enable better control of
thetool.
• Maintain firm grip with both hands on the tool to resist
startingtorque. Maintain a firm grip on the tool at all times
whileoperating.
• Always follow the bit manufacturer’s speed
recommendations as some bit designs require specific
speeds for safety or performance. If you are unsure of the
proper speed or are experiencing any type of problem, contact
the bitmanufacturer.
• Keep hands away from cutting area. Never reach under
the workpiece for any reason. Keep the router base firmly in
contact with the workpiece whencutting.
• Never run the motor unit when it is not inserted in one of
the router bases. The motor is not designed to behandheld.
• Keep cutting pressure constant. Do not overloadmotor.
• Use sharp bits. Dull bits may cause the router to swerve or
stall underpressure.
• Be sure that the motor has stopped completely before
you lay the router down. If the bit is still spinning when the
tool is laid down, it could cause injury ordamage.
• Be sure that the router bit is clear of the workpiece
before starting the motor. If the bit is in contact with the
workpiece when the motor starts it could make the router
jump, causing damage orinjury.
