Dust Extraction Hood
The dust extraction

hood can be installed on

the top of the router

base and connected to a

vacuum for dust

collection.
To install the dust

extraction hood, insert

the mounting tabs into

the router base, and turn

the retaining latch to the

locked position.
Make sure the router bit

won't cut into the

extraction hood.

Chip Diverter
The chip diverter is used for edge forming to keep the

routing debris from coming back toward the operator.

This can be used with or without dust extraction. To

install the chip diverter:

1.

Lay the router on its side.

2.

Insert the tabs of the chip diverter into the accessory slots

and push in until you hear the locking tabs click.

3.

Verify that the diverter is fully seated and latched. Note

the position of the locking tab in the upper left picture

when the diverter is not fully latched.
