Using the template guide

The template guide (17) can be used in various ways:

•Producing duplicates of a particular design

of an original shape

•In conjunction with a template, producing decorative features

•Repetitive cutting shapes

If you wish to make your own templates it is best to use a

hardwood such as plywood. Use a piece that is just thicker than the depth of the template guide. Allow for the thickness of the guide in your template to ensure that the workpiece is cut to the correct size.

NOTE. Always use the dust extraction adaptor when working with the template guide.

Maintenance

Regularly check that all the fixing screws are tight. They may vibrate loose over time.

Keep the tool’s air vents unclogged and clean at all times.

Regularly check to see if any dust or foreign matter has entered the grills near the motor and around the switches. Use a soft brush to remove any accumulated dust. Wear safety glasses to protect your eyes whilst cleaning.

Re-lubricate all moving parts at regular intervals.

If the body of the tool needs cleaning, wipe it with a soft damp cloth. A mild detergent can be used but nothing like alcohol, petrol or other cleaning agent.

Never use caustic agents to clean plastic parts.

CAUTION. Water must never come into contact with the tool.

Power cord maintenance

If the supply cord needs replacing, the task must be carried out by the manufacturer, the manufacturer’s agent, or an authorised service centre in order to avoid a safety hazard.
