3. Then lower the cutter height until the cutter is just
above the workpiece.
4. Fine adjustments are possible by loosening the wing
bolt (28) and adjusting the side fence fine adjustment
knob (29).
5. Tighten the wing bolt (28) to secure the position.
NOTE: One revolution of the side fence fine adjustment
knob (29) equals 2.0 mm of side feed.
6. Lower the cutter onto the workpiece and set the cutter
height by to the required distance. Refer to Setting the
Router Depth.
7. Switch the router on and after the cutter reaches full
speed, gently lower the cutter into the workpiece and
lock the plunge.
8. Feed along the workpiece, keeping sideways pressure
to ensure the side fence does not wander away from the
workpiece edge and downward pressure on the inside
hand to prevent the router from tipping.
9. When finished, raise the router, secure with the plunge
locking lever (16) and switch the router off.
NOTE: When starting the cut, keep the pressure on the
front cheek until the back cheek contacts the workpiece
edge.
NOTE: At the end of the cut, keep pressure on the
back cheek until the cut is finished. This will prevent the
router cutter swinging in at the end of the workpiece and
nipping the corner.
Side Fence Routing - (Fig. I, J)
The side fence is used to guide the router when
moulding, edge profiling or rebating the edge of a
workpiece or when routing grooves and slots in the
centre of the workpiece, parallel to the edge.
The edge of the workpiece must be straight and true.
The strips (31) are adjustable and should be set ideally
with a 3 mm gap each side of the cutter.
Guiding Off a Batten
Where an edge guide cannot be used, it is also possible
to guide the router along a batten clamped across the
workpiece (with an overhang at both ends).
Freehand Routing
WARNING: Make shallow cuts only! Use
cutters with a max. diameter of 12mm.
Your router can also be used without any sort of guide,
e.g. for signwriting or creative work.
Table Mode - (Fig. A, Q)
WARNING: Before the T8 is installed into
the router table, check that the router table meets
all of the legal safety requirements for router
tables. Read all safety warnings, instructions,
and specifications provided with the router table.
Failure to follow all instructions and safety rules may
result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious
personal injury, turn unit off and disconnect
it from power source before making any
adjustments or removing/ installing attachments
or accessories. An accidental start-up can cause injury.
WARNING: Do not use the T8 as a
handheld router if the Table Safety Clip is
installed.
Installing the Router Table Safety Clip
1. Secure the safety strap from the clip to the leg of the
router table, ensuring that the buckle strap is a safe
distance away from the cutter.
2. Ensure the router and NVR (No volt Release) switch is
disconnected from the power supply.
3. Push the Clip (40) onto the right-hand side handle
(2) by guiding the pin into the insertion point (18) and
ensuring that the lower guide is located correctly into the
bottom of the handle.
4. Press the Trigger Release button (20) and squeeze the
On/Off Trigger (19). The trigger will stay depressed, and
the power is now locked on.
5. Install the router in the table according to the table
manufacturer’s instructions and connect power plug to
the NVR switch.
WARNING: Do not secure the safety
strap to the router
6. Switch on the power supply to the NVR. The router is
now ready for use.
NOTE: The power on/off function of the router is now
controlled by the NVR switch and will start-up at the
preset speed as soon as the NVR is turned on.
7. When removing the router from the table, the safety
clip can be pulled from the handle.
Fitting the Height Adjuster - (Fig. S1)
The height adjuster (12) for the T8 can be used portably
or when the router is held inverted in a table. If a suitable
size access hole is drilled into the router table top, the
height adjustment can also be adjusted from above the
table top.
