Router Table Operation

CONNECTING THE ROUTER POWER CORD TO THE SWITCH

MAKE SURE THAT THE SWITCH POWER CORD IS NOT PLUGGED INTO ANY ELECTRICAL OUTLET AT THIS TIME. IF IT IS, UNPLUG IT.

MAKE SURE THAT ROUTER SWITCH IS IN THE OFF POSITION.

1.Plug the router power cord into one of the electrical outlets on the back of the switch case.

2.Form the excess power cord into a coil.

3.Wrap two pieces of friction tape or cable ties around the coiled cord at opposite sides of the coil.

4.Allow some slack so that the cord does not become stretched when it is plugged into the switch box outlets.

5.If desired, at this time plug the power cord from an accessory, such as a wet/dry vac or light, into the other outlet on the back of the switch case.

MAKE SURE THAT POWER CORDS FROM THE ROUTER, ACCESSORIES, THE SWITCH CASE, AND THE EXTENSION CORD DO NOT AND CANNOT COME IN CONTACT WITH THE ROUTER OR ANY MOVING PARTS OF THE ROUTER.

This switch has a 15 amp rating and is intended only for turning the router and connected acces- sories such as a wet/dry vacuum “ON” and “OFF”.

GENERAL INFORMATION

The power switch is designed for use with most BOSCH Router Tables. It provides the convenience of an ON (RESET)-OFF switch at the front of the table, thus eliminating the need to reach underneath the table to turn the router ON and OFF.

The power switch also provides an optional simultaneous ON-OFF control of an additional accessory, such as a light or wet/dry vac. The switch has an internal, resettable circuit breaker to provide overload protection.

Cord Routing

Route the switch cord and any accessory power cords through the notch in the vacuum port on the back of the router table cabinet.
