Users manual
Quick set-up guide
After Sales-card
When making adjustments etc, always ensure the router is isolated
from the main electrical supply by switching off and removing the
plug from the socket.
Note: Always refer to the specific router operating instruction manual when
making height and speed adjustments etc.
Installing bits
To install bits whilst the router is situated in the table will require the router
to be lowered fully. Select desired bit and install. Fit the table insert closest to
the size of the bit, ensure the bit does not touch the insert.
Height adjustment
Raise the router until the bit protrudes through the table the required
amount. Make test cuts on scrap pieces of wood to set accurately.
Fence adjustment
Loosen the two fence clamping knobs and position the fence as desired, use
the graduation marks to set the fence parallel. Make test cuts on scrap pieces
of wood to set accurately.
Pressure pad
Set the fence pressure pad to hold the piece of wood flat on the table and
against the fence whilst machining. To do this, place the piece of wood
against the fence and below the relevant pad to be adjusted, loose the two
locking knobs and lower the pad until it rests on the wood, push the pad
down a little further to apply sufficient pressure to hold the wood flat on the
table. Adjust the table feather board in the same manner to hold the wood
firmly against the fence.
Jointing fence
Set the jointing fence to support the wood when cutting the full thickness.
Adjust the cutting depth etc as previously described, proceed to machine the
piece of wood until the lead edge passed over the jointing fence by approx
25mm. Switch off and isolate from the main electrical supply. Hold the wood
firmly against the Fence, loosen the jointing fence clamping knob, slide the
jointing fence out until it touches the wood and then tighten the clamping
knob. Back the workpiece away from the cutter before switching on again.

General safety instructions
Caution! Read all instructions. The non-observation of the instructions
mentioned below may cause an electric shock, fire and/or severe injuries. The
term “electric tool” mentioned below refers to mains-operated electric tools
(with power cord) and to rechargeable electric tools (without power cord).
Keep these instructions for use in a safe place.
1) Workplace
(a) Keep your workplace clean and tidy. Untidy and badly illuminated work

areas may lead to accidents.
This router table is supplied with extra extensions to improve the control on
the work piece.
(b) Do not operate this machine in potentially explosive environments
containing combustible liquids, gases or dusts. Electric tools send out
sparks which may ignite dust or vapours.
(c) Keep children and other persons away from the electric tool during use.
When distracted, you may lose control over the apparatus.
•
•
Place the extensions on both sides as indicated in the figure.
Use the enclosed screws (4 pieces per extension) to connect the extension
correctly to the router table.
2) Electric safety
Mounting the router
(a) The plug of the machine has to be suitable for the socket. The connector
may not be modified in any way. Do not use an adapter plug together
with earthed devices. Unchanged connectors and fitting sockets reduce
the risk of an electric shock.
(b) Avoid body contact to earthed surfaces, such as pipes, radiator, stoves and
refrigerators. There is a higher risk of an electric shock, if your body is
earthed.
(c) Keep the machine clear of rain or humidity. The penetration of water
into an electrical device increases the risk of an electric shock.
(d) Do not use the cable for unintended purposes, to carry or suspend the
machine or to pull the connector out of the socket. Keep the cable clear
of heat, oil, sharp edges or any moving parts. Damaged or entangled
cables increase the risk of an electric shock.
Fig.14 Fig.15
(e) When using an electric tool in the open, use an extension cable only
which has been approved for outdoor use. The use of an extension cable
suitable for use in the open will reduce the risk of an electric shock.
Always use an RCD (redicual circuit device or circuit breaker).
(f) Hold the machine at the insulated gripping surfaces as the belt grinder
may hit its own power cord. Damaging a live cable may make metal
machine parts live, which may lead to an electric shock.
3) Personal safety
(a) Please pay attention and watch what you are doing, and carry out the
work with the electric tool sensibly. Do not use the machine, when you
are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medicine. A moment
of carelessness in the use of the machine could lead to serious injuries.
(b) Wear your safety equipment and always put on safety goggles. Wearing
personal protective gear, such as dust mask, anti-skid safety shoes, hard
hat and ear protection, depending on the type of use of the electric tool,
will reduce the risk of injury.

Attach the router to the router table by doing the following:
•
•
Loosen the fence securing knobs and slide fence forwards as far as
possible, this prevents the router coach bolts (M5X50) from falling
through the table when it is turned over.
(c) Avoid unintentional operation. Make sure that the switch is in the “OFF”

Insert two coach bolts (M6X25) into the hole on guide for table pressure
pad, and put table pressure pad on the two bolts, and secure it in
position with washer and locking knob (Fig. 11 and Fig. 12)
4) Careful handling and use of electric tools
(a) Use the correct tool for the job at hand.
(b) Do not use an electric tool, if the switch is defective. An electric tool,
which cannot be switched on or off, is dangerous and has to be repaired.
(c) Remove the plug from the socket before setting down the machine,
changing accessories or putting the machine aside. This precautionary
measure prevents the unintentional start of the machine.
(d) Keep unused electric tools out of reach of children. Do not permit
persons to use the machine who are not familiar with it or who have not
read these instructions. Electric tools are dangerous, if they are used by
inexperienced persons.
Fit the switch box (5, Fig. 1) by doing the following:
•
Align two holes on switch box into the two holes on the front side
wall of table.
Fit in position with two Phillips head screws inserted from the front
of table secured with two nuts (Fig. 13).
•
Mounting extensions
(e) Maintain the machine with care. Please check whether the movable parts
are perfectly operational and do not jam, whether parts have broken or
have been damaged in such a way that the function of the machine is
impaired. Have damaged parts repaired prior to using the machine. Many
accidents are caused by electric tools which are poorly maintained.
(f) Keep all cutting tools sharp and clean.
(g) Use the electric tool, the accessories, the insert tools, etc according to
these instructions, and in the way described for this special type of
apparatus. In the process, take the working conditions and the work to
be carried out into consideration. Only use this belt sander for the
purpose for which it is intended.

Assembly
Safety instructions
•
Always make sure that work surface of the router table is clean and free
from dust, chips, and foreign particles that can interfere with the cut you
are going to make. The use of a wet/dry vac or vacuum equipment is
recommended.
•
•
•
The fence that comes with the router table has a dust collector to which
a wet/dry vac can be attached.
Check the function of the guard before each use. Remove all dust, chips,
and any other foreign particles that can affect its function.
Warning! Never put your fingers under the overhead guard when the
router is plugged into and electrical outlet or when the router bit is
rotating.
•
•
Always feed the workpiece against the rotation of the cutter or router bit.
Router bits are extremely sharp, be extra careful when handling and
using them.
Fig.6
Fig.7
•
•
Make sure that the router bits being used are sharp or have been
properly re-sharpened. This will permit fast, efficient, and safe routing.
Some routers, when positioned in an upside down position (such as on an
router table), will drop or fall out of the router base when the base
clamp is loosened to adjust height or depth of cut. Therefore, it is
extremely important to support the router from below when making
these adjustments or whenever the base clamp is loosened.
Always look under the router table at the router switch box when
turning the router ON or OFF. Do not touch anything but the switch box
when doing this. Never reach under the router table for any reason when
the router table is running, except to turn it OFF.
Warning! Before making any cut, make sure the router is turned OFF, the
router bit is not rotating, and the power cord is unplugged from the
electrical outlet. Then, make absolutely sure that the overhead guard
clears the router bit and the workpiece. A trial pass, with the router
turned OFF and the router bit not turning, is strongly recommended.
Warning! Never leave the router table unattended while the router is
running. Turn the router OFF before leaving the router table for any
reason.
