The router is ideal for the processing of wood and plastic, for the removal of knots, for the cutting of grooves and recesses, and for the copying of curves and lettering etc. It is prohibited to use the router to process metal, stone and other materials. The machine is to be used only for its intended purpose. Any use beyond its intended purpose is a case of mis-use. Liability for damage or injury resulting from such a case of mis-use shall rest with the user or operator and not with the manufacturer.

4. Important information

Please read the operating instructions carefully and note their contents. Use these operating instructions to acquaint yourself with the machine, its proper use and essential safety precautions. Keep the operating instructions together with the router. Safety information Make sure the machine is switched off before inserting the plug in the socket-outlet. Clamp the workpiece securely to prevent it from slipping. Always run the cable away from the back of the machine. Always remove the plug from the socket-outlet before doing any work on the machine. Be sure to use only cutters with the correct shaft diameter and suitable speed rating for your router. Check that the cutter is fitted securely before starting up the machine. Always make sure of your footing while using the machine. The direction of routing must always be opposite to the cutter’s direction of rotation. Do not feed the cutter into the workpiece until it is running. Always guide the router with both hands. Never exceed the maximum speed specified for the cutter. Make allowance for the machine’s reaction torque, particularly if the cutter jams. When you are finished, allow the machine to glide back into starting position. Use only properly ground cutters. Mount the cutter with friction locking. Depending on the material, deeper cuts should be performed in several passes. The level of noise at the workplace may exceed 85 dB(A). In this case you will need to introduce noise protection measures for the user. The noise produced by this electric tool was measured in accordance with EN 50144-1. Vibration emission was measured in accordance with EN 50144-1. Ear muffs must be worn when operating the router.

6. Assembly and operation

Important! Pull out the power plug before fitting any parts or making any adjustments. A.) The extractor socket (Item 14 / Fig. 1) Important! For the sake of your health, always use a dust extractor. Connect a suitable dust extractor to the extraction socket (14). B.) Fitting the parallel stop (Fig. 2) Insert the guide shafts (17) of the parallel stop (18) in the holes (13) of the routing base (7). Adjust the parallel stop (18) to the required distance and clamp it in place with the thumb screws (9). The parallel stop can be set to the exact dimension by turning the fine adjustment device (19). C.) Fitting the trammel point (Fig. 2/3) Undo the thumb screws (a) on the parallel stop (18) and pull out one guide shaft (17). Slide the trammel point (21) onto the guide shaft (17) of the parallel stop (18) and fasten with the thumb screw (b). Place the trammel point against the material. Set the required radius by adjusting the parallel stop (18) and fixing it in place with the thumb screw (9). Switch on the machine. Release the clamping handle (12) and lower the machine slowly as far as the stop (see Section F). Cut grooves, shoulders, etc. at a steady rate of feed, holding the machine with both hands. When finished, raise the machine again. Switch off the machine. D.) Fitting the guide bush Use the two countersunk head screws to fasten the guide bush (22) to the routing base. The template (c) is traced with the guide ring (b) of the guide bush (22). To obtain an exact copy, the workpiece (d) must be bigger by an amount equal to the difference between the ‘outer edge of the guide ring’ and the ‘outer edge of the cutter’ (e). E.) Fitting the cutter Important: Pull out the power plug! Press the spindle lock (10) and unscrew the clamping nut (15) from the spindle (16). Insert a collet in the spindle (8) to match the cutter you want to use. Loosely screw the clamping nut (15) on the spindle. Insert the cutter in the collet. Press the spindle lock (10) and use the open- ended spanner (20) to tighten the clamping nut (8). Important: Make sure that all adjustment and assembly tools are removed before starting the machine. Dismantle the cutter in reverse order. F.) Adjusting the depth of cut Place the machine on the workpiece. Undo the thumb screw (5) and release the clamping handle (12). Lower the machine slowly until the cutter touches the workpiece. Secure the clamping handle (12). Set the depth stop (4) to the required routing depth using the scale (3) and the turret stop (6). You can choose from three depth stop settings by turning the turret stop (6). Use the thumb screw (5) to fix the depth stop (4) in position. Press the ON/OFF switch (1) to switch on the machine. Use the speed selector (2) to set the required cutter speed.

Anleitung OF-G 1100 E 12spr. 24.10.2001 10:50 Uhr Seite 8 Release the clamping handle (12) again and lower the cutter to perform the routing job. When you are finished with your work, return the machine to starting position. The speed of the router depends on the material to be cut, the feed rate and the cutter used. G.) Routing direction The direction of routing must always be opposite to the cutter’s direction of rotation. Otherwise there is a risk of injury from back kick. H.) Moulding and edge-cutting It is also possible to use special cutters with a guide ring for moulding (a) and edge-cutting (b) jobs. Fit the cutter. Feed the machine carefully up to the workpiece. Move the guide pin or ball race (c) of the cutter along the workpiece, applying light pressure. Important: Depending on the material, deeper cuts should be performed in several passes. Hold the router with both hands on all cutting jobs.

Keep the ventilation slits in the motor housing clean and clear at all times. Clean out the slits with dry compressed air so that no oil or condensed water from the compressed air line gets into the machine.
