SHAPING NARROW MATERIAL
When shaping narrow material (less than 3" wide) a support as shown in Fig. 27 must be clamped to your Router/Shaper and the workpiece fed under this support with a push stick. The push stick should be slightly narrower and thinner than the workpiece.
WARNING: Shaping narrow material without proper support and push stick could result in serious injury.

Periodically blow out all air passages with dry compressed air. Remove buildup of grime resulting from working with green or sappy wood. All plastic parts should be cleaned with a soft damp cloth. NEVER use solvents to clean plastic parts. They could possibly dissolve or otherwise damage the material.
CAUTION: Wear safety glasses while using compressed air.
FAILURE TO START
Should your tool fail to start, check to make sure the prongs on the cord plug are making good contact in the outlet. Also, check for blown fuses or open circuit breakers in the line.
LUBRICATION
This tool has been lubricated with a sufficient amount of high grade lubricant for the life of the unit under normal operating conditions. No further lubrication is necessary.
