f Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in ac-
cordance with these instructions, taking into account
the working conditions and the work to be performed.
Use of the power tool for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
Service
f
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair per-
son using only identical replacement parts. This will en-
sure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Safety Warnings for Routers
f Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, be-
cause the cutter may contact its own cord. Cutting a
“live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool
“live” and shock the operator.
f Use clamps or another practical way to secure and sup-
port 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.
f The allowable speed of the router bit must be at least as
high as the maximum speed listed on the power tool.
Accessories that rotate faster than permitted can be de-
stroyed.
f Router bits or other accessories must fit exactly in the
tool holder (collet) of your machine. Routing bits that do
not fit precisely in the tool holder of the machine rotate ir-
regularly, vibrate heavily and can lead to loss of control.
f Apply the machine to the workpiece only when
switched on. Otherwise there is danger of kickback when
the cutting tool jams in the workpiece.
f Never cut over metal objects, nails or screws. The rout-
er bit can become damaged and lead to increased vibra-
tions.
f Use suitable detectors to determine if utility lines are
hidden in the work area or call the local utility company
for assistance. Contact with electric lines can lead to fire
and electric shock. Damaging a gas line can lead to explo-
sion. Penetrating a water line causes property damage or
may cause an electric shock.
f Do not use blunt or damaged router bits. Blunt or dam-
aged router bits cause increased friction, can become
jammed and lead to imbalance.
f Always wait until the machine has come to a complete
stop before placing it down. The tool insert can jam and
lead to loss of control over the power tool.
Products sold in GB only: Your product is fitted with an
BS 1363/A approved electric plug with internal fuse (ASTA
approved to BS 1362).
If the plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be
cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place by an author-
ised customer service agent. The replacement plug should
have the same fuse rating as the original plug.
The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible
shock hazard and should never be inserted into a mains sock-
et elsewhere.
Products sold in AUS and NZ only: Use a residual current de-
vice (RCD) with a rated residual current of 30 mA or less.
