Assembly

A wide assortment of router bits with different profiles is available separately.

!WARNING To prevent personal injury, always remove the plug

from power source before removing or installing bits or accessories.

INSTALLING A ROUTER BIT

Place router upside down with the top of the router resting on the bench. Another option is to remove the motor from the base before installing the bit.

1.Remove the chip shield.

2.Press collet lock to stop rotation of armature shaft. NOTE: it may be necessary to rotate collet chuck assembly to engage collet lock (Fig. 5).

3.Next, use the collet wrench to loosen the collet nut in counter-clockwise direction (viewed from under the router).

4.Insert the shank of the router bit into the collet chuck assembly as far as it will go, then back the shank out until the cutters are approximately 1/8" to 1/4" away from the collet nut face.

5.With the router bit inserted and the collet lock holding the armature shaft, use the collet wrench to firmly tighten the collet

nut in a clockwise direction (viewed from under the router). To ensure proper gripping of the router bit, the shank of the router bit must be inserted at least 5/8".

!WARNING When the templet guide has been removed from base, do

not use router bits greater than 2" in diameter as they will not fit through the sub- base.

! CAUTION

To prevent damage to tool,

 

do not tighten collet nut

without a bit.

 

NOTE: The router bit shank and collet chuck should be clean and free of dust, wood, residue and grease before assembling.

REMOVING THE ROUTER BIT

1.Press collet lock to stop rotation of armature shaft and turn the collet chuck assembly in a counter-clockwise direction.

2.Once the collet chuck assembly is loosened continue to turn the collet chuck assembly until it pulls the collet free from its taper, and the router bit can be removed.

NOTE: The collet chuck is self-extracting; it is NOT necessary to strike the collet chuck to free the router bit.
