ASSEMBLY

CAUTION:

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

Installing or removing the bit

CAUTION:

Do not tighten the collet chuck without inserting a bit, or
the collet chuck will break.

When using bit of bigger than 1-1/4” in diameter, install
base plate with center hole diameter 2-1/2”, replacing
the original base plate.

First, remove the motor unit from the base as follows.

1. Open the lock lever.

2. While holding the base, turn the motor unit counterclock-

wise.

3. Turn it until the pin in the base is disengaged from the

groove in the motor unit. Lift the motor unit free from the
base.

Insert the bit all the way into the collet cone and tighten the
collet nut securely with the two wrenches.

These routers accommodate the bits with 1/2” diameter
shank. When using the 1/4” diameter shank bit, replace the
equipped collet chuck with the one for 1/4” diameter shank
bit which is provided as the standard accessory.

To remove the bit, follow the installation procedure in reverse.

Reinstall the motor unit

Install the motor unit into the base as follows.

1. Open the lock lever.

2. While holding the base, insert the motor unit into the

base aligning the pin with the groove in the base.

3. Confirm that the pin and the groove are aligning. Rotate

the motor unit clockwise into the base.
