Only use cutters with a shaft diameter which
corresponds with the size of the collet. Only use
cutters which are suited for the maximum speed
of the machine. The cutter diameter should not
exceed the maximum diameter (see ‘Technical
specications’).
Never tighten the collet nut, if there is no router bit
in the collet; the collet may be damaged.
• Pressthespindlelock(7)andturnthecollet
nut (6) until it engages in the lock. Keep the
spindle lock pressed during this procedure.
• Openthecolletnutusingthespanner.
• Placethecuttershaftinthecollet.
• Tightenthecolletnutsothatthecutteris
locked properly.
• Openthecolletnutwhenyouwanttoreplace

The parallel fence is a useful tool for precision
routingataxeddistancefromtheedgeofthe
workpiece.

Usethedustadapterfortheextractionofdust.In
case the adapter is not mounted on the machine,
follow these instructions.
• Mountthedustadapter(24,Fig.E)withthe
screws (22) on the cutter sole (3).
• Placethedusttube(25)inthedustoutput(16

• Placethetubeofyourvacuumcleaneronthe
dust tube (25, Fig. F).
Keep the outlet of the machine behind
the machine for a good view on the
workpiece.

• Donotputthemachinedownwhenthemotor
is still running. Do not place the machine on a
dusty surface. Dust particles may enter the
mechanism.

• Afterswitchingthemachineon,makesurethe
machine reaches full speed before using it on
the workpiece.
• Clamptheworkpieceandmakesurethatthe
workpiece cannot slide from under the
machine during the cutting activities.
• Holdthemachinermlyandmoveitevenly
over the workpiece. Do not force the machine.
• Onlyusecutterswhichdonotshowanysigns
of wear. Worn cutters have a negative effect
ontheefciencyofthemachine.
• Alwaysswitchoffthemachinerstbefore
removing the plug from the wall socket.

The required speed can be preselected with the
thumbwheel. Also during running the rotational
speed can be adjusted.
1 – 2 = low speed
3 – 4 = medium speed
5 – 6 = high speed
Max = maximum speed
The required speeds depends on the material and
can be determined by practical testing.
Furthermore router bits with a large diameter
need a lower rotational speed.
