FEATURES
CUTTER GUARD/VACUUM ATTACHMENT
DOUBLE INSULATION
Thecutterguardprovidesabarriertoprotecttheoperator
from contact with the cutter and is adjustable for all types
of cuts and materials. The cutter guard also doubles as
a vacuum attachment. You can insert a standard shop
vacuum into the top of the clear plastic ring to keep dust
down to a minimum.
Double insulation is a concept in safety in electric power
tools, which eliminates the need for the usual three-wire
grounded power cord. All exposed metal parts are
isolated from the internal metal motor components with
protecting insulation. Double insulated tools do not need
to be grounded.
MITER GAUGE
A miter gauge is used for mitered routing and to help
support wider pieces.
WARNING:
The double insulated system is intended to protect
the user from shock resulting from a break in the
tool's internal wiring. Observe all normal safety pre-
cautions to avoid electrical shock.
GUARDS
The undertable guard and rear safety guard ensure that
yourhand, looseclothing, andotherobjectsdonotcome
in contact with the cutter or collet during operation.
Important: Servicing of a tool with double insulation
requires extreme care and knowledge of the system and
should be performed only by a qualified service
technician. For service, we suggest you return the tool to
yournearestauthorizedservicecenterforrepair.Always
use original factory replacement parts when servicing.
WARNING:
The undertable guard and rear safety guard must be
securely in place before using the router table. Fail-
ure to do so could result in serious personal injury.
SWITCH
The router table has a conveniently located toggle
switch. In addition, the router table is equipped with a
switch key. You must insert the key to turn the switch on.
If you remove the key during operation, you can turn the
switch off, but you may not turn it on again until you
replace the key.
THROAT PLATES
Five throat plates are included with the router table. The
throat plate provides a stable surface around the cutter
and prevents objects from falling through the throat and
damaging the spindle.
FENCE ASSEMBLY
The fence assembly provides an adjustable surface to
support and guide the work.
WARNING:
Do not allow familiarity with your router or router
table to make you careless. Remember that a care-
less fraction of a second is sufficient to inflict severe
injury.
STARTING PIN
When you are unable to use the fence for a guide
because the workpiece is odd-shaped or too small, use
thestartingpinforaguide. Onlyusepilotedcutterswhen
using the starting pin.
