This new router is equipped with the following features. See Figure 1.

MOTOR

The router kit has a powerful 10 amp motor with sufficient power to handle tough routing jobs. It delivers 2 peak horsepower for heavy duty performance.

SWITCH

The router has a conveniently located rocker switch.

SPINDLE LOCK

The spindle lock secures the spindle so that you only need one wrench to loosen the collet nut and change cutters.

DEPTH ADJUSTING RING

The depth adjusting ring allows you to adjust the depth of cut.

VARIABLE SPEED

The router’s advanced electronic feature allow you to adjust the motor speed to required job conditions. The variable speed control is located on the front of the router and allows the router to develop a no load speed from 15,000 to 25,000/min.

LOCKING ARM

The locking arm secures the motor housing in the base.

CHIP SHIELD

A plastic chip shield on the base of the router provides protection against flying dust and chips.

ERGONOMIC DESIGN

The design of this tool provides for easy handling. It is designed for comfort and ease of grasp when operating in different positions and at different angles.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

Your router has a precision built electric motor. It should be connected to a power supply that is 120 volts, 60 Hz, AC only (normal household current). Do not operate this tool on direct current (DC). A substantial voltage drop will cause a loss of power and overheating. If your tool does not operate when plugged into an outlet, double-check the power supply.

DOUBLE INSULATION

Double insulation is a concept in safety in electric power tools, which eliminates the need for the usual three-wire grounded power cord. All exposed metal parts are isolated from the internal metal motor components with protecting insulation. Double insulated tools do not need to be grounded.
