Model 1609A Only

Insert the 4mm hex wrench supplied into the hole in the top of the offset base to hold the spindle in position, and loosen the collet in a counterclockwise direction with one of the combination wrenches supplied. Insert a lami- nate trim bit into the collet as far as it will go, and back out slightly until the cutters are 1/8" to 1/4" away from the collet. Holding the spindle firmly with the 4mm hex wrench, tighten the collet in a clockwise direction with the combination wrench to firmly grip the bit.

Wrench

To remove bit, use the wrenches as described above, and turn the collet in a counterclock- wise direction until the bit can be pulled out. Note that the collet is self-extracting; it is NOT necessary to strike the collet to free the bit.

CAUTION! The minimum insertion of the bit shank is 5/8" to ensure proper gripping and minimize bit run-out.

Collet Care

With the router bit removed, continue to turn the collet or collet nut counterclockwise until it is free of the spindle and the collet can be removed. To assure a firm grip, occasionally blow out the collet with compressed air and clean the taper in the spindle shaft with a tissue or fine brush.

After cleaning, reinsert the collet and lightly thread in place. To avoid damage, NEVER tighten the collet or collet nut unless a bit is inserted. Replace worn or damaged collets immediately.

Assembling Motor to Base

All Models Except Model 1609A

Insert router motor into clamping ring 4. Ro- tate motor to the desired position, and tighten clamping ring screw 8 with a screwdriver. Be sure clamping ring holds motor firmly before turning tool "ON ", but do not overtighten the ring.

Model 1609A Only

Remove collet and nut (if fitted) from motor spindle as described earlier. Lock the armature shaft with the combination wrench 14 fur- nished, and screw the toothed pulley 15 in

place with a screwdriver. Remove the combi- nation wrench, and with the clamping ring loosened, slide the offset base assembly 16 into place on the motor as far as it will go.

As the base is installed, it is necessary to guide the toothed belt 17 over the pulley by using a screwdriver inserted through the U-shaped hole in the sub-base. Position the motor in the base in the most comfortable position to suit the operator, and tighten the clamping ring firmly. Do not overtighten.

Depth Adjustment

Model 1608, 1608LX Only

With the motor clamped in the base and the bit installed, loosen knob 10 and raise or lower the motor and cutter with adjusting screw 11 until the desired amount of bit is exposed. Tighten knob 10 and make a test cut in scrap material.
