• Due to our continuing programme of research and development, the specifications herein are subject to change without notice.

• Note: Specifications may differ from country to country.

Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the tools or pull the plug from an outlet.

Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of electric shock.

When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked “W-A” or “W”.

These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock.

WARNING: Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below, may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS Personal Safety

Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite accidents.

Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

10. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

11. Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is off before plugging in. Carrying tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other.) This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a polarized outlet.

Do not change the plug in any way. Double insula-

12. Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool on. A wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury.

tion eliminates the need for the three wire grounded power cord and grounded power supply system.

Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

13. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance enables better control of the tool in unexpected situations.

Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.

14. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate con-

that may affect the tools operation. If damaged, have the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.

ditions. Ordinary eye or sun glasses are NOT eye protection.

22. Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool, may become hazardous when used on another tool.

15. Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.

16. Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.

23. Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service or maintenance performed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury.

17. Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or off. Any tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

24. When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow instructions in the

Maintenance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow Maintenance instructions may create a risk of electric shock or injury.

18. Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.

USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD: Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. Table 1 shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord.

19. Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

20. Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control. 21. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition

Wear hearing protection during extended period of operation.

Handle the bits very carefully.

Check the bit carefully for cracks or damage before operation. Replace cracked or damaged bit immediately.

Avoid cutting nails. Inspect for and remove all nails from the workpiece before operation.

Hold the tool firmly.

Keep hands away from rotating parts.

Make sure the bit is not contacting the workpiece before the switch is turned on.

Before using the tool on an actual workpiece, let it run for a while. Watch for vibration or wobbling that could indicate improperly installed bit.

Adjusting bit protrusion

10. Be careful of the bit rotating direction and the feed direction.

11. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool only when hand-held.

12. Always switch off and wait for the bit to come to a complete stop before removing the tool from workpiece.

13. Do not touch the bit immediately after operation; it may be extremely hot and could burn your skin.

Scale Bit protrusion Clamping nut Adjusting screw

14. Always lead the power supply cord away from the tool towards the rear.

To adjust the bit protrusion, loosen the clamping nut and move the tool base up or down as desired by turning the adjusting screw. After adjusting, tighten the clamping nut firmly to secure the tool base.

15. Do not smear the tool base carelessly with thinner, gasoline, oil or the like. They may cause cracks in the tool base.

16. Draw attention to the need to use cutters of the correct shank diameter and suitable for the speed of the tool.

17. Some material contains chemicals which may be toxic. Take caution to prevent working dust inhalation and skin contact. Follow material supplier safety data.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS WARNING:

MISUSE or failure to follow the safety rules stated in this instruction manual may cause serious personal injury.

Before plugging in the tool, always be sure that the tool is switched off. To start the tool, move the switch lever to the I (ON) position. To stop the tool, move the switch lever to the O (OFF) position. •

The followings show the symbols used for tool.

Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before carrying out any work on the tool.

Installing or removing trimmer bit

Class II Construction

Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before adjusting or checking function on the tool.

Do not tighten the collet nut without inserting a bit, or the collet cone will break. • Use only the wrenches provided with the tool. Insert the bit all the way into the collet cone and tighten the collet nut securely with the two wrenches. To remove the bit, follow the installation procedure in reverse. •

Since excessive cutting may cause overload of the motor or difficulty in controlling the tool, the depth of cut should not be more than 3 mm (1/8”) at a pass when cutting grooves. When you wish to cut grooves more than 3 mm (1/8”) deep, make several passes with progressively deeper bit settings.

Set the tool base on the workpiece to be cut without the bit making any contact. Then turn the tool on and wait until the bit attains full speed. Move the tool forward over the workpiece surface, keeping the tool base flush and advancing smoothly until the cutting is complete.

When doing edge cutting, the workpiece surface should be on the left side of the bit in the feed direction. 001984

The templet guide provides a sleeve through which the bit passes, allowing use of the trimmer with templet patterns.

Remove the chip deflector.

Moving the tool forward too fast may cause a poor quality of cut, or damage to the bit or motor. Moving the tool forward too slowly may burn and mar the cut. The proper feed rate will depend on the bit size, the kind of workpiece and depth of cut. Before beginning the cut on the actual workpiece, it is advisable to make a sample cut on a piece of scrap lumber. This will show exactly how the cut will look as well as enable you to check dimensions.

Loosen the screws and remove the base protector. Place the templet guide on the base and replace the base protector. Then secure the base protector by tightening the screws.

Secure the templet to the workpiece. Place the tool on the templet and move the tool with the templet guide sliding along the side of the templet. 005435

When using the trimmer shoe, the straight guide or the trimmer guide, be sure to keep it on the right side in the feed direction. This will help to keep it flush with the side of the workpiece.

The workpiece will be cut a slightly different size from the templet. Allow for the distance (X) between

the router bit and the outside of the templet guide.

The distance (X) can be calculated by using the following equation: Distance (X) = (outside diameter of the templet guide router bit diameter) / 2

A Straight guide (optional accessory)

The straight guide is effectively used for straight cuts when chamfering or grooving.

Attach the guide plate to the straight guide with the bolt and the wing nut.

Straight guide Wing nut Base

Circular work may be accomplished if you assemble the straight guide and guide plate as shown in the figures.

Min. and max. radius of circles to be cut (distance between the center of circle and the center of bit) are as follows: Min.: 70 mm (2 - 3/4”) Max.: 221 mm (8 - 11/16”) For cutting circles between 70 mm (2 - 3/4”) and 121 mm (4 - 3/4”) in radius. For cutting circles between 121 mm (4 - 3/4”) and 221 mm (8 - 11/16”) in radius.

Remove the chip deflector.

Attach the straight guide with the clamp screw (A).

Loosen the wing nut on the straight guide and adjust the distance between the bit and the straight guide. At the desired distance, tighten the wing nut securely. When cutting, move the tool with the straight guide flush with the side of the workpiece. If the distance (A) between the side of the workpiece and the cutting position is too wide for the straight guide, or if the side of the workpiece is not straight, the straight guide cannot be used. In this case, firmly clamp a straight board to the workpiece and use it as a guide against the trimmer base. Feed the tool in the direction of the arrow.

Circles between 172 mm (6-3/4”) and 186 mm

(7-5/16”) in radius cannot be cut using this guide. Align the center hole in the straight guide with the center of the circle to be cut. Drive a nail less than 6 mm (1/4”) in diameter into the center hole to secure the straight guide Pivot the tool around the nail in clockwise direction.

Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or maintenance.

Replacing carbon brushes

Remove and check the carbon brushes regularly.

Replace when they wear down to the limit mark. Keep the carbon brushes clean and free to slip in the holders. Both carbon brushes should be replaced at the same time. Use only identical carbon brushes. Use a screwdriver to remove the brush holder caps. Take out the worn carbon brushes, insert the new ones and secure the brush holder caps.

Trimming, curved cuts in veneers for furniture and the like can be done easily with the trimmer guide. The guide roller rides the curve and assures a fine cut.

Install the trimmer guide on the tool base with the clamp screw (A). Loosen the clamp screw (B) and adjust the distance between the bit and the trimmer guide by turning the adjusting screw (1 mm (3/64”) per turn). At the desired distance, tighten the clamp screw (B) to secure the trimmer guide in place.
