DETACHABLE POWER CORD (Fig., 11)

The router has a detachableFig,, 11 power cord for easy carrying

and storage.

Note: Always attach the Detach- able Power Cord to the Router before connecting the Power Cord to the power source

Before turning the router on, connect the end of the power cord with two sockets to the power outlet located on the router motor's top cap (See indicator label on the Router)°

Electronic Variable Speed Control

The electronic speed control feature allows router motor speed to be matched to cutter size and material hardness for an improved finisl_ and extended bit life.

			I
		Variable Speed Selection	Chart
		Never exceed these bit speeds
Cutting	Bit	Diameter	Max.. Speed
Up to	1 in.	(25mm)		6
1-1/4 in. to 2 in. (30-50ram)			4	- 5
2-1/4 in. to		24/2 in, (55-65 mm)	2	- 3
3 in. to	3-1/2 in. (75-90mm)		I	- 2

Reduce the speed when using extra large 1 in. plus, or heavy cutting bits° Chang- ing the router s rate of feed can also improve the quality, of the cut.

The speed charts above indicate the relationship between speed settings and the

cutting application. Exact settings are determined by operator experience and

preference, and also by recommendations by manufacturers of cutting bits.
