ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS
with the power tool or these instructions
to operate the power tool. Power tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition
that may affect the power tool’s operation.
If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool
bits etc. in accordance 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.
5. SERVICE
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualied
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
ROUTER SAFETY WARNINGS
– Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,
because the cutter may contact its own cord.
Contact with a “live” wire may make exposed metal
parts of the power tool “live” and shock the operator.
– Use clamps or another practical way to
secure and support 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.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES
FOR YOUR ROUTER
1. Always wear a dust mask.
2. Wear protective glasses and hearing protection.
3. For long hair, wear hair protection. Work only
with closely tting clothes.
4. If the mains cable is damaged or cut through
while working, do not touch the cable. Never use
the machine with a damaged cable.
5. Do not operate the machine in rain or high
moisture conditions.
6. Always direct the cable to the rear away from the
machine.
7. Contact with electric lines can lead to re and
electric shock. Damaging a gas line can lead to
explosion. Penetrating a water line causes property
damage or may cause an electric shock.
8. When working with the machine, always hold it
rmly with both hands.
9. Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with
clamping devices or in a vice is held more secure
than by hand.
10. Before putting into operation, check the routing
tool for rm seating.
11. Never route over metal objects such as nails or screws.
12. Keep hands away from rotating router bits.
13. After nishing work, guide the machine back
into the upper starting position by actuating the
clamping lever and switch the machine off.
14. Always switch the machine off and wait until it
has come to a standstill before placing it down.
15. Protect tools from impact and shock.
16. Never allow children to use the machine.
17.
Do not use blunt or damaged router
bits.
Blunt or damaged router bits cause increased
friction, can become jammed and lead to imbalance.
18. 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 destroyed.
19. Never touch the bit during or
immediately after the use.
After use the bit is
too hot to be touched by bare hands.
20. WARNING: Some dust particles
created by power sanding,
sawing, grinding, drilling and other
construction jobs contain chemicals
known to cause cancer, birth defects or
other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these chemicals are:
· Lead from lead-based paints.
· Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and
other masonry products.
· Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated
lumber.
· Your risk from these exposures varies,
depending upon how often you do this type of work.
To reduce your exposure to these chemicals.
· Work in a well-ventilated area.
Work with approved safety equipment, such as
those dust masks that are specially designed to
lter microscopic particles.
