The switch box incorporates two positive features to prevent inadvertent switching on of the router and the unauthorized, and possibly hazardous, use by others. Inadvertent switching on of the router is prevented by the clear plastic switch box cover. The cover must be raised and the switch box manually toggled to the "ON" position to start the router. Also, the safety key can

be removed to disable the switch box by "locking" the switch box in the "OFF" position, thus preventing unauthorized and possible hazardous use.

The switch box can be turned "OFF" by pressing the switch box cover with the hand.
