OF 1010
4 Power supply and start-up
The mains voltage must correspond to
the specification on the rating plate.
Switch (1.2) serves as an On/Off switch (I = On /
0=Off). It may be latched with the locking knob on
the side (1.1) for continuous operation. Pressing
the switch again releases the lock. See Fig. 1A for
connection and disconnection of the power cable.
5 Machine settings
Always remove the power supply plug from the
socket before carrying out any work on the ma-
chine.
5.1 Electronics (OF 1010 EBQ/OF 1010 EQ)
Do not operate the tool if the electronics are faulty
as this can lead to the tool operating at excessive
speeds. If the start-up is not smooth or speed
adjustment is not possible, this indicates that the
electronics are faulty.
The OF 1010 EBQ, OF 1010 EQ features
full-wave electronics with the following
properties:
Smooth start-up
The smooth start-up ensures the router starts
up jolt-free.
Speed adjustment
You can regulate the speed steplessly between
10000 and 24000 min
-1
(OF 1010 EQ: 9500 - 23000
min
-1
) using the adjusting wheel (1.16). This ena-
bles you to optimise the cutting speed to suit the
material:

Plastic 6 - 4 5 - 3 2 - 1 HW
Aluminium 3 - 1 2 - 1 1 HSS (HW)
Plaster-
board
2 - 1 1 1 HW
Constant speed
The pre-selected speed remains constant whether
the machine is in operation or in neutral position.
Temperature control
To prevent overheating, the safety electronics
switches the machine off when it reaches a critical
motor temperature. Let the machine cool down
for approx. 3-5 minutes before using it again. The
machine requires less time to cool down if it is
running, i.e. in neutral position.
Brake (OF 1010 EBQ)
The OF 1010 EBQ has an electronic brake which
brings the spindle with tool to a standstill within
approx. 2 seconds of the tool being switched off.
5.2 Changing tools
You can turn the machine upside down when
changing the tool.
a) Inserting the tool
- Insert the router into the open clamping collet
as far as possible, but at least up to the mark
(
) on the router shank.
- Turn the spindle until the spindle stop (1.14)
catches when pressed and the spindle is locked
in place.
- Tighten the locking nut (1.13) with a 19 mm
open-end spanner.
b) Removing the tool
- Turn the spindle until the spindle stop (1.14)
catches when pressed and the spindle is locked
in place.
- Loosen the locking nut (1.13) using a 19 mm
open-ended spanner until a resistance is felt.
Overcome this resistance by turning the open-
ended spanner even further.
- Remove the cutter.
5.3 How to change the clamping collet
Clamping collets are available for following
shank diameters: 6.0 mm, 6.35 mm, 8 mm (or-
der numbers see Festool catalogue or Internet
“www.festool.com“.
- Fully unscrew the nut (1.13) and remove from
spindle together with the clamping collet.
- Only insert a new clamping collet in the spindle
when the nut is attached and engaged, then
tighten the nut slightly. Do not tighten the nut
until a milling cutter has been fitted.
5.4 Adjusting the milling depth
The milling depth is adjusted in three stages:
a) Setting the zero point
- Open the clamping lever (1.6) so that the stop
cylinder (1.7) can move freely.
