How to fit the Collet sleeve - (Fig. C2)
This router is supplied with a collet sleeve as an accessory.
To fit the collet sleeve (b) simply slide it into the collet (a).
The collet sleeve has a flange to ensure insertion to
correct depth.
NOTE: Do not attempt to remove the collet from the
collet nut.
Depth Stop Turret - (Fig. E)
WARNING: Do not change the depth stop
turret while the router is running. This will place your
hands too near the cutter head.
The depth stop turret (7) limits the downward distance
that the tool can be plunged. It serves to define the
depth of cut by limiting the travel of the depth stop rod (3).
1. The cutting depth can be set by turning the appropriate
height on the depth stop turret.
2. The depth stop turret is rotatable with stepped stops.
3. It is the interaction of the depth stop rod and the
depth stop turret that determine the routing depth.
4. Refer to section Adjusting the Depth of Cut for
