USER MANUAL OF1010EQ FESTOOL

Wear protective goggles! Read the Operating Instructions/Notesl! 1 Intended use The routers are designed for routing wood, plas- tics and similar materials. Aluminium and plasterboard can also be proc- essed with corresponding cutters such as are listed in the Festool catalogues. The user is liable for damage and injury resulting from incorrect usage!

Safety instructions Rules WARNING! Read all safety warnings and allinstructions. Failure to follow the warn- ings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term .power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded] power tool or battery-operated (cordless] power tool.

2.2 Tool-specific safety rules

- Do not exceed the maximum speed specified on the tool and/or keep to the speed range. - The clamping collet should only be used to clamp tools with a shank diameter appropriate for the collet.

- Check that the cutter is firmly fitted and runs freely. - The clamping collet and union nut must show no signs of damage. - Cracked or distorted cutters must not be used. Wear suitable protection such as O ear protection, safety goggles, a dust mask for work which gener- ates dust, and protective gloves (ee "d when working with raw materials and when changing tools. - Festool electric power tools should only be in- stalled in work benches specially designed by Festool. The electric power tool may become unsafe and cause serious accident if installed in benches from other manufacturers or self- manufactured work benches. 3 Noise and vibration information The typical values determined in accordance with EN 60745 are: Sound-pressure level/sound-power Level OF 1010 EBQ, OF 1010 EQ 79/90 dB{A] OF 1010 Q 87/98 dB[A] Measuring uncertainty allowance K=3 dB O Wear ear protection! Overall vibration levels (vector sum for three directions] measured in accordance with EN 60745: Vibration emission level (3-axis) a, = 5,5 m/s? Front handle a, = 8,0 m/s? Uncertainty K = 2,0 m/s? The emission values specified (vibration, noise) were measured in accordance with the test con- ditions stipulated in EN 60745 and are intended for machine comparisons. They are also used for

making preliminary estimates regarding vibration and noise loads during operation. The emission values specified refer to the main applications for which the power tool is used. If the electric power tool is used for other applica- tions, with other tools or is not maintained suf- ficiently prior to operation, however, the vibration and noise load may be higher when the tool is used. Take into account any machine idling times and downtimes to estimate these values more accurately for a specified time period. This may significantly reduce the load during the machine operating period. 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 (1 = 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.

{OF 1010 EBQ/OF 1010 EQ) Do not operate the tool ifthe 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: (ELecrroNIo] 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! {OF 1010 EQ: 9500 - 23000 min] using the adjusting wheel [1.16). This ena- bles you to optimise the cutting speed to suit the material: Cutterdiameter Recom- Imm] mended 3-14[15-25 [16-35 [outter Material Rotary control setting [material Hardwood_ [6-4 [5-3 [3-1 HW {HSsS) Softwood 6-5 {8-3 4-1 HSS (HW) Laminated |6-5 |6-3 4-2 HW chipboard Plastic 6-4 [5-3 2-1 HW Aluminium [3-1 [2-1 1 HSS (HW) Plaster- 2-1 |1 1 HW board Constant speed The pre-selected speed remains constant whether the machine is in operation or in neutral posi- tion. 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, ie. 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.

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 | 2] 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 (order num- bers see Festool catalogue or Internet .www. festool.com”. - Fully unscrew the nut [1.13] and remove from spindle together with the clamping collet. - Insert a new clamping collet with nut into the spindle and slightly tighten the nut. 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. - Place the router with router table [1.11] onto a smooth surface. Open the rotary knob (1.15) and press the machine down until the milling cutter rests on the base. - Clamp the machine in this position bytightening the rotary knob (1.15). - Press the stop cylinder against one of the three sensing stops of the pivoted turret stop (1.9). The individual height of each sensing stop can be adjusted with a screwdriver: Sensing stop min. height/max. height A 38 mm/44 mm B 44 mm/54 mm C 54 mm/67 mm - Push the pointer (1.4) down so that it shows 0 mm on the scale (1.5). b) Setting the milling depth The desired milling depth can be set either with the quick depth adjustment or with the fine depth adjustment. + Quick depth adjustment: Pull the stop cylinder (1.7) up until the pointer shows the desired milling depth. Clamp the stop cylinder in this position with the clamping lever (1.6). + Fine depth adjustment: Clamp the stop cyl- inder with the clamping lever [1.6]. Set the desired milling depth by turning the adjusting wheel (1.3] in. Turn the adjusting wheel to the next mark on the scale to adjust the milling depth by 0.1 mm. One full turn adjusts the milling depth by 1 mm. The maximum adjust- ment range with the adjusting wheel is 8 mm.

c) Increasing the milling depth - Open the rotary knob (1.15] and press the tool down until the stop cylinder touches the sensing stops. - Clamp the machine in this position bytightening the rotary knob (1.15).

Dust extraction Always connect the machine to a dust extractor. À connection for extracting dust and chips (1.8) is a standard feature on the routers. At the same time a chip guard {2.2] on the side stop prevents flying chips. With edge routing, the best extraction effect is obtained with the extractor hood AH-OF, available as an accessory. KSF-OF chip catcher Using the KSF-OF chip catcher (9.1] (sometimes included in the scope of delivery), the efficiency of the extraction can be increased when routing edges. Installation is similar to that of the copy- ing ring. The hood can be cut off along the grooves (9.2) using a hacksaw and can thus be reduced in size. The chip catcher can then be used for interior radiuses up to a minimum radius of 40 mm. 6 Working with the machine Always secure the workpiece in such a manner that it cannot move while being sawed. The machine must always be held with  both hands by the designated handles (1.15, 1.171. Always advance the router in the direction op- posite to the direction of rotation of the cutter {counter-routing)! When routing (ensure feed direction of power tool is the same as cutting direction of tool, Fig. 5).

6.1 Aluminium processing

When processing aluminium, the follow- ing measures must be taken for safety reasons: - Pre-connect a residual current circuit-breaker (FI, PROD]. - Connect the machine to a suitable dust extrac- tor. - Clean tool regularly of dust accumulations in the motor housing.

6.2 Freehand routing

Freehand routing is the method normally used for lettering or shapes, and for routing edges using cutters with a guide pin or ring.

6.3 Routing with the parallel guide

The parallel guide [3.2] supplied can be used for routing parallel to the edge of the workpiece {not supplied with .Module 5A): - Secure both guide rods (3.7) with the two rotary knobs (3.3) on the side stop. - Insert the guide rods into the grooves (1.10) on the router base to the required distance and secure them by turning the rotary knob (3.1). This distance can be adjusted faster and more precisely with the fine precision adjustment (3.6), available as an accessory: - Turnthe adjusting screw [3.4] in the plastic part of the guide, - clamp the guide rods with the rotating knobs (3.5) in the precision adjustment, - loosen the rotating knobs (3.3) of the parallel guide, - setthe desired distance with the adjusting screw and retighten the rotating knobs.

6.4 Routing with the TV-0F extension table

The extension table TV-OF, available as an acces- sory, can be used to enlarge the support area of the router and thus improve guidance, e.g. when routing close to edges. The extension table is fitted in the same way as the parallel guide.

6.5 Routing with the FS guide system

The guide system, available as an accessory, fa- cilitates routing straight grooves. - Fasten the guide stop [4.1] to the platen with the guide rails (3.7] of the parallel guide. - Fasten the guide rail (4.3) with FSZ screw clamps (4.4] to the workpiece. Make sure that the safety distance X (Fig. 4] of 5 mm between the front edge of the guide rail and cutter or groove is observed. - Place the guide stop onto the guide rail as shown in Fig. 4. To ensure a backlash-free guidance of the router stop you can adjust two guide cheeks With a screwdriver through the side openings (4.2). - Screwthe height-adjustable support (4.6) of the router table's threaded bore [6.6] in such a way that the underside of the router table is parallel to the surface of the workpiece. When working with marking-up lines, the marks on the platen [4.5] and the scale on the support (4.6) show the centre axis of the cutter.

6.6 Routing with the SZ-0F 1000 beam com-

passes With the SZ-OF 1000 beam compasses, which are available as an accessory, you can make circular cuts or segments of circles with diameters from 153 to 760 mm. - The beam compasses are pushed into the front groove of the platen until the desired radius is set. - Lock the beam compasses with the rotating knob (1.12). Practical hint To prevent the tip of the compasses from making a hole in the workpiece, fix a thin board at the centre point by means of double-sided adhesive tape.

À copying ring or the copying device is used to exactly reproduce existing workpieces (both avail- able as accessories). a) Copying ring Fasten the copying rings to the platen instead of the cover ring (2.1] from below. When choosing the size of the copying ring (5.1] make sure that the cutter used (5.2) fits through the ring's opening. The distance Y (Fig. 5] between the workpiece and template is calculated by Ÿ = (9 copying ring - 9 cutter]

The copying ring can be centred exactly with the centring cone ZF-OF (Order No. 486035]. b) Copying device The angle arm WA-OF (6.5) and copier scanning set KT-OF, consisting of roller holder (6.2] and three copying rollers (6.1), are required for the copying device. - Screwthe angle arm atthe desired height inthe platen's threaded bore [6.6] with the rotating knob (6.4). - Fit a copying roller in the roller holder and bolt this to the angle arm with the rotating knob (6.3). Make sure that the copying roller and cutter have the same diameter! - Turn the adjusting wheel (6.7) to adjust the distance between the copying roller and cutter axis.

Protruding edge bands can be flush trimmed with the angle arm WA-OF [7.6] in connection with the guide plate UP-OF (7.3). - Screw the angle arm into the platen's threaded bore (7.7) with the rotating knob (7.5). - Bolt the guide plate to the angle arm with the rotating knob (7.4). - Adjust the milling depth so that this is equal to the thickness of the edge band +2 mm. - Move the guide plate [8.1] as close as possible to the cutter by loosening the rotating knob (8.3). - Adjust the depth of the guide plate with the adjusting wheel (8.2] so that during trimming a few decimillimetres of the edge band are left protruding which can then be sanded down by hand. The chip guard SF-OF (7.2), available as an ac- cessory, improves dust extraction when trimming edge bands. It is fastened to the side of the platen with the rotating knob (7.1) and cover the cutter from above during work (Fig. 8). 7 Accessories For your own safety, use only original Festool accessories and spare parts.
