4.2 Switching the machine on and off

Keep the machine steady during switching and

during use by holding the handle (5.1) and the additional

handle (5.4) with both hands.

The switch (5.3) is used to switch the tool on and off. For

continuous operation the switch can be locked by means of

the button on the side (5.2). The switch can be unlocked by

pressing again.

After the machine has been switched off, the

milling cutter will still rotate for a time. Take care that parts

of your body do not come into contact with the milling cutter

while it is still rotating!

3.4 Clamping collet changing

- Fully unscrew the collet nut (3.2) and remove from spindle

together with the clamping collet.

- Insert a new clamping collet with nut into the spindle and

slightly tighten the collet nut.

Do not tighten the collet nut until a milling cutter has been

fitted!

Milling cutter removel

- Turn the spindle until the spindle stop (3.1) catches when

pressed and the spindle is locked in place.

- Loosen the collet nut (3.2) using a 19 mm open-ended

spanner until a resistance is felt. Overcome this resistance

by turning the open-ended spanner even further.

- Remove the cutter.

Operation

4.1 Adjusting the milling depth

Before adjusting the milling depth always

disconnect the mains plug from the socket!

The milling depth is adjusted in three stages:
a) Setting the zero point

- Open the clamping lever (4.4) so that the stop cylinder (4.5)

can be moved freely.

- Place the router with router table (4.7) onto a smooth surface.

Open the rotary knob (4.8) and press the machine down

until the milling cutter rests on the base. Clamp the machine

tight in this position with the rotary knob (4.5).

- Press the stop cylinder against one of the three sensing stops

of the pivoted turret stop (4.6).

The individual height of each sensing stop can be adjusted

with a screwdriver:

Sensing stop min. height

max. height

A

38 mm

44 mm

B

44 mm

54 mm

C

54 mm

67 mm

- Push the pointer (4.1) down so that it shows 0 mm on the

scale (4.3).

b) Setting the milling depth

The desired milling depth can be set either with the quick

depth adjustment or with the fine depth adjustment.
Quick depth adjustment:

Pull the stop cylinder (4.5) up until the pointer shows the

desired milling depth. Clamp the stop cylinder in this position

with the clamping lever (4.4).
Fine depth adjustment:

Lock the stop cylinder with the clamping lever (4.4). Set the

desired milling depth by turning the adjusting wheel (4.2) in.

Turn the adjusting wheel to the next mark on the scale to

adjust the milling depth by 0.1 mm. One full turn adjusts the

milling depth by 1 mm. The maximum adjustment range with

the adjusting wheel is 8 mm.
c)

Increasing the milling depth

Open the rotary knob (4.8) and press the tool down until the

stop cylinder touches the sensing stops.
