Use for intended purpose

The routers are designed for routing wood, plastics and similar materials. Aluminium and plasterboard can also be processed with corresponding cutters such as are listed in the Festool catalogues.

The user is liable for damages and injuries due to incorrect usage.

Electrical connection

The network voltage must conform to the voltage indicated on the rating plate. A 16 A safety fuse (for 120 V) or a corresponding protective circuit- breaker is required.

See the following figure for connection and discon- nection of the power cable.

Always switch the machine off before connecting or disconnecting the power cable!

Extension cable

If an extension cable is required, it must have a sufficient cross-section so as to prevent an exces- sive drop in voltage or overheating. An excessive drop in voltage reduces the output and can lead to failure of the motor. The table below shows you the correct cable diameter as a function of the cable length for the router OF 1010 EQ. Use only U.L. and CSA listed extension cables. Never use two extension cables together. Instead, use one long one.

Switching the machine on and off

3.4

Keep the machine steady during switching and during use by holding the handle (3.2) and the additional handle (3.1) with both hands.

The switch (3.4) is used to switch the tool on and off. For continuous operation the switch can be locked by means of the button on the side (3.3). The switch can be unlocked by pressing again.

After the machine has been switched off, the milling cutter will still rotate for a time. Take care that parts of your body do not come into contact with the milling cutter while it is still rotating!

Electronics

Do not work with the OF 1010 EQ if the electronic control is defective since this may lead to excessive speeds. A defect in the electronic control is indicated by the absence of a smooth run-up, a higher noise level at idle or the fact that no speed control is possible.

The router OF 1010 EQ has solid shaft electronics with the following functions:

Smooth start-up:

The electronically controlled smooth start-up facility enables start-up of the machine without jerks and requires a lower start-up current.
