FEATURES

KNOW YOUR ROUTER

See Figure 1.

Before attempting to use any tool, familiarize yourself
with all operating features and safety requirements.

CHIP SHIELD

See Figure 1.

A clear plastic chip shield is installed on the front of

your router for protection against flying dust and
chips. The shield is designed to fit the front opening of

the router base. If necessary to remove chip shield,

squeeze the tabs on each end and pull outward. To

replace, squeeze the tabs at each end, fit into

opening, then release. For your protection, do not

use router without chip shield properly in place.

LOCK-ON BUTTON

See Figure 1.

The switch of your router is equipped with a lock-on
feature which is convenient when operating for

extended periods of time. To lock on, depress the
trigger, push in the lock button located on the side of
the handle, then while holding the lock button pushed
in, release the trigger. To release the lock, depress
the trigger and release,

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

Your router has a precision built electric motor. It
should be connected to a power supply that is 120
volts, 60 Hz, AC only (normal household current).

Do not operate this tool on direct current (DC). A
substantial voltage drop will cause a loss of power

and the motor will overheat. If your router does not
operate when plugged into an outlet, double-check

the power supply.

^ WARNING: If any parts are missing, do not operate your router until the missing parts are replaced. Failure

to do so could result in possible serious personal injury
