Dust extraction

Breathing in dust can dam- age the respiratory passage! Always con-

nect the machine to a dust extractor. When performing work that generates dust, always wear a dust mask.

Extraction hoods are supplied for both router tables; a Festool extractor (extractor hose with a diameter of 27 mm) can be connected to these extraction hoods.

The dust extractor (extractor hose with dia. 27 mm) can also be attached to the “large surface router table” or the side stop depend- ing on the application.

Rough adjustment

–Loosen the screws [9-2] and [9-4] and slide the side stop.

–Tighten the screws.

Fine adjustment

–Loosen the screws [9-2] and turn the green wheel on the fine adjuster [9-3].

fThe distance between each line on the ro- tary wheel is 0.1 mm - one full turn of the ring represents 1 mm.

– Tighten the screws [9-2].
