ADJUSTMENTS

WARNING:

The router or router table should never be con- nected to a power supply when you are assembling parts, making adjustments, installing or removing cutters, cleaning, or when not in use. Disconnecting the router and router table will prevent accidental starting that could cause serious personal injury.

ADJUSTING DEPTH OF CUT

See Figure 11.

We recommend that cuts be made at a depth not exceeding 1/8 in. (3.2 mm) and that several passes be made to reach depths of cut greater than 1/8 in. (3.2 mm).

Follow these directions to adjust depth of cut.

QUnplug the router and the router table.

INSERTING/REMOVING CUTTERS

Follow these directions to insert and remove cutters.

QUnplug the router and the router table.

WARNING:

Failure to unplug the router and router table could result in accidental starting causing serious injury.

WARNING:

To prevent damage to the spindle or spindle lock, always allow the motor to come to a complete stop before engaging the spindle lock.

QRemove the screws from the rear safety guard.

QRemove the rear safety guard from the router.

QFollow the directions for installing and removing cutters in the operator’s manual.

WARNING:

Use this router table only with a Ryobi router. Do not attempt to use any other router with this table. Fail- ure to heed this warning could result in improper operation of the tool and serious personal injury.

QReturn the rear safety guard to its proper position.

QSecure the rear safety guard by inserting and tight- ening the two screws previously removed.

WARNING:

If you are changing a cutter immediately after use, be careful not to touch the cutter or collet with your hands or fingers. They will get burned because of the heat buildup from cutting. Always use the wrench provided.

WARNING:

Failure to unplug the router and router table could result in accidental starting causing serious injury.

QUnlock the clamping lever.

QTurn the depth adjusting ring until the tip of the cutter touches the work surface (zero depth of cut).

NOTE: When you use certain cutters, you may need to remove the black plastic subbase from the router to achieve full depth of cut.
