2 Safety warnings

2.1 General power tool safety warnings

FESTOOL MFK 700 EQB - General power tool safety warnings - 1

WARNING! Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below 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 Machine-specific safety notices

  • Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only, because the cutter may contact its own cord. Cutting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
  • Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by your hand or against the body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.
  • Do not clamp tools with an unsuitable shank diameter in the clamping collet.
  • Operate power tool only with properly installed guide table and extraction hood
  • Only cutters provided by Festool for this purpose may be mounted on the power tool. The use of other cutters is prohibited due to the increased risk of injury.
  • Only use tools that meet standard EN 847-1. All Festool routing tools fulfil these requirements.
  • The clamping collet and locking nut must not show any signs of damage
  • Do not use cracked or deformed router bits.
  • Ensure that the router bit is seated firmly and that it runs perfectly.
  • The maximum rotational speed specified on the tool must not be exceeded or the rotational speed range must be observed.

English

Accessories that rotate faster than the permissible level can rupture.

- Do not work on the power tool if its electronics are defective as this may lead to excessive speeds. You can tell if the electronics are defective if there is no smooth start-up, if it is not possible to regulate the speed and in the event of generation of smoke or the smell of burning from the machine.

7 Settings

FESTOOL MFK 700 EQB - Settings - 1

WARNING

Risk of injury, electric shock

▶ Always disconnect the mains plug from the socket before performing any work on the machine.

7.1 Electronics

Constant speed

The preselected motor speed is kept constant through electronic control. This ensures a uniform speed even when under load.

Speed control

You can use the adjusting wheel [1-8] to continuously adjust the speed within the speed range (see Section Technical data). This enables you to optimise the speed to suit the respective material. Please also note the specifications on the tools.

Scorch or melt marks on the material can be prevented through reducing the speed.

Temperature cut-out

The power supply is restricted and the speed reduced if the motor exceeds a certain temperature. The power tool continues operating at reduced power to allow the ventilator to cool the motor quickly. The power tool starts up again automatically once the motor has cooled sufficiently.

Restart protection

The built-in restart protection prevents the power tool from starting up again automatically if the power is disconnected when the on/off switch is pressed. In this case, the power tool must be switched off and then switched back on again.

Due to the built-in restart protection, the power tool cannot be switched on and off via an external switch module.

7.2 Replacing router table

The router table for edging is optimally designed for cutting protruding edging thanks to the large contact surface.

▶ Slide router table onto mounting bolts of machine [3].
▶ If nec., remove ball bearing brake [3-2].
▶ Secure locking for router table [3-1].
▶ If nec., insert ball bearing brake [3-2] .

Removal in reverse order.

7.6 Dust extraction

FESTOOL MFK 700 EQB - Dust extraction - 1

WARNING

Heath hazard posed by dust

▶ Always work with an extractor.
▶ Comply with national regulations.

A Festool mobile dust extractor with an extraction hose diameter of 27 mm should be connected at the extractor connector [1-10].

CAUTION! If an anti-static suction hose is not used, static charge may occur. The user may receive an electric shock and the electronics of the power tool may be damaged.

8 Working with the electric power tool

When working on the machine, observe all of the safety warnings that are listed at the start as well as the following rules:

  • Always secure the workpiece in such a way that it cannot move during machining.
  • Hold the machine with two hands – one on the motor housing and one on the gear head or on the additional handle [1-6] – to ensure safe guidance.

  • Adjust the feed speed to the router diameter and the material. Work with a constant feed speed.

  • Only guide the power tool towards the workpiece when it is switched on.
  • Wait until the power tool has come to a complete halt before placing it down. The insertion tool can get caught and lead to a loss of control of the power tool.
  • Make sure that the router table is firmly tightened before routing.
  • When routing, ensure that the power tool's feed direction is the same as the tool's cutting direction.

8.1 Guide types

Routing with ball bearing guide [6]

When routing with cutters with a ball bearing guide the ball bearing brake must be inserted in the edge router. The edge router is guided so that the ball bearing guide of the cutter rolls between the brake and edging.

Adapt height of the brake to the height of the ball bearing guide - 2 stages [6A].

Routing with plane cutter [7]

The ball bearing brake is not used when routing with plane cutters. Guide edge router so that the stop of the router table is at the edging - also possible at diagonal edges.
