* Due to the continuing program of research and devel- opment, the specifications herein are subject to change without prior notice:

+ Note: Specifications may differ from country to country.

Power supply The tool should be connected only to a power supply of the same voltage as indicated on the nameplate, and can oniy be operated on single-phase AC supply. They are double-insulated in accordance with European Standard and can, therefore, also be used from sockets without earth wire.

For public low-voitage distribution systems of

between 220 V and 250 V Switching operations of electric apparatus cause voltage fluctuations. The operation of this device under unfavor- able mains conditions can have adverse effects to the operation of other equipment. With à mains impedance equal or less than 0.32 Ohms it can be presumed that there will be no negative effects

The mains socket used for this device must be protected with a fuse or protective circuit breaker having slow tipping characteristics

For your own safety, please refer to enclosed safety instructions.

. Be careful of the bit rotating

Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Con- tact with a “live” wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator.

Wear hearing protection during extended period

.… 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.

. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool

only when hand-held.

. Always switch off and wait for the bitto come to a

complete stop before removing the tool from workpiece.

Do not touch the bit immediately after operation; it may be extremely hot and could bum your skin. Always lead the power supply cord away from the tool towards the rear.

15. Do not smear the tool base carelessiy with thin- ner, 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 which are suitable for the speed of the tool.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Installing or removing the router bit (Fig. 1)

Important: Always be sure thatthe tool is switched off and unplugged from the supply outlet before instaling or removing the router bit.

Insert the router bit all the way into the collet. Press the

shaft lock to keep the shaftstationary and use the wrench

to tighten the collet nut securely. When using router bits

with smaller shank diameter, first mount the appropriate

colt, then install the bit as described above.

* Do not tighten the collet without inserting a router bit.

* Use always à collet which is suitable for the shank diameter of the router bit.

* Use only router bits of which the maximum speed, as indicated on the bit, does exceed the maximum speed of the router.

Adjusting the depth of cut (Fig. 2)

Always be sure thatthe tool is switched off and unplugged before adjusting the depth of cut.

Place the tool on a flat surface. Loosen the lock lever and lower the tool body until the bit just touches the flat surface. Press the lock lever down to lock the tool body. While pressing the fastfeed button, move the stopper pole up or down until the desired depth of cutis obtained. Minute depth adjustments can be obtained by turing the stopper pole (1.5 mm per tu).

CAUTION The depth of cut should not be more than 20 mm at a pass when cuttng grooves. For extra-deep grooving operations, make two or three passes with progressively deeper bit settings.

The upper limit of the tool body can be adjusted by tuning the nylon nut. Do not lower the nylon nut too low. The bit wil protrude dangerousiy.

As the rotary stopper has three adjusting hex bolts, you can easily obtain three different depths of cut without readjusting the stopper pole. To adjust the hex boits, loosen the hex nuts on them and turn the hex bols. After obtaining the desired position, tighten the hex nuts to secure the hex bolts.

Switching ON and OFF For tool without lock-off button (Fig. 4) CAUTION:

Make sure thatthe shaftlock is released before the switch is tumed on.

To switch on, move the switch lever to the "ON" position. To switch off, move the switch lever to the “OFF” position

For tool with lock-off button (Fig. 5)

* Before plugging in the tool, always check to see that the switch trigger actuates properiy and retums to the “OFF” position when released.

+ Make sure that the shaft lock is released before the switch is turned on.

To switch on, push the lock-off button and at the same time press the trigger. To switch off, release the trigger.

Speed change knob (Fig. 6)

For 3612C only The tool speed can be infinitely adjusted between 9,000 rpm and 23,000 rpm by tuming the speed change knob. This allows the ideal speed to be selected for optimum material processing, Le. the speed can be correctiy adjusted to suit the material and bit diameter. Refer to the table below for relationship between the number settings on the speed change knob and approx. tool speed

Number RPM 1 9,000 2 12,000 3 15,000 4 19,000 5 23,000

Place the tool on the workpiece and switch on. Release the lock lever and slowly lowerthe tool onto the workpiece until preset routing depth is reached. Move the tool forward using both hands. When cuttng edges, the workpiece surface should be on the left side of the bit in the feed direction as shown in Fig. 7.

When using the straight guide, be sure to install it on the right side in the feed direction. (Fig. 8)

Install the straight guide on the guide holder with the wing boit (B). Insert the guide holder into the holes in the tool base and tighten the wing bolt (A). To adjust the distance between the bit and the straight guide, loosen the wing boit (B) and tum the fine adjusting screw (1.5 mm per tum). (Fig. 9)

Wider straight guide of desired dimensions may be using the convenient holes in the guide to boit on extra pieces of wood.

When using a large diameter bit, attach pieces of wood to the straight guide which have a thickness of more than 15 mm to prevent the bit from striking the straight guide. (Fig. 10)

When using the trimmer guide, be sure to install it on the right side in the feed direction. (Fig. 11)

Install the timmer guide on the guide holder with the wing boit (B). Insert the guide holder into the holes in the tool base and tighten the wing bolt (A). To adjustthe distance between the bit and the trimmer guide, loosen the wing boit (B) and tum the fine adjusting screw (1.5 mm per turn). When adjusting the guide roller up or down, loosen the wing boit (C). (Fig. 12)

For tool without lock plate The templet guide provides a sleeve through which the bit passes, allowing use of the router with templet patterns. (Fig. 13)

To install the templet guide, loosen the screws on the tool base, insert the templet guide and then tighten the screws. (Fig. 14)

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. (Fig. 16)

For tool with lock plate The templet guide provides a sleeve through which the bit passes, allowing use of the router with templet patterns. (Fig. 13)
