4. Cutting
WARNING:
⬤Wear eye protection when operating this tool.
⬤Keep your hands, face and other body parts away from the bits and any other rotating parts, while operating the tool.
(1)The bit must be kept clear of the materials which are to be cut, when the power is being turned on. (Fig. 7)
(2)Then turn the tool on and wait until the bit attains full speed.
(3)Lower the tool body with pressing the lock lever down.
(4)Release the lock lever at the lowest position and push it further to lock the tool body securely.
(5)The bit rotates clockwise (arrow direction indicated on the base). To obtain maximum cutting effectiveness, feed the router in conformance with the feed directions shown in Fig. 8.

NOTE:
⬤Make sure that the tool raises automatically when the lock lever is loosened. The position of the bit must be higher than the tool base when not operating.
⬤Moving the tool forward too fast may cause a poor quality of cut, or damage to the bit or motor. Moving the tool forward too slowly may burn and mar the cut. The proper feed rate will depend on the bit size, the kind of workpiece and depth of cut. Before beginning the cut on the actual workpiece, it is advisable to make a sample cut on a piece of scrap lumber. This will show exactly how the cut will look as well as enable you to check dimensions.
⬤When using the straight guide, be sure to install it on the right side in the feed direction. This will help to keep it flush with the side of the workpiece.
