Installing
or
removing router bit
CAUTION
:
Always be sure that the tool
is
switched off and unplugged before installing or removing
the bit.
Insert the bit all the way into the collet
chuck and withdraw
it
very slightly (ap-
prox.
2
mm;
1/16").
Then tighten the collet
chuck securely with the two wrenches.
When using smaller shank bits, first insert
the appropriate collet
sleeve
into the collet
chuck, then install the bit
as
mentioned
above.
To remove the bit, follow the installation
procedure in reverse.
CAUTION
:
Do
not tighten the collet chuck without inserting
a
bit or install smaller shank bits with-
out using
a
collet sleeve. Either can lead to breakage of the collet chuck.
Adjusting depth
of
cut
Place the tool on
a
flat surface. Turn the
scale ring until
it
makes contact with the
base. Loosen the knob. Turn the
scale
ring
until the bit just touches the flat surface.
Tighten the knob. Place the tool on
its
side
and turn the
scale
ring counterclockwise
(when viewing the tool from the top) until
the desired depth of cut
is
obtained. One
full turn of the scale ring
is
equal to 5 mm
(about
3/16")
change in depth setting.
Loosen the knob and move the tool base
until
it
makes
contact with the
scale
ring.
Then tighten the knob securely.
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 (5/8")
at
a
pass when cutting
grooves. When
you
wish to cut grooves more than
15
mm
(5/8") deep, make several
passes
with progressively deeper bit settings.
