The purpose of safety symbols is to attract your attention to possible hazardous conditions. This  
manual uses a series of symbols and signal words which are intended to convey the level of  
importance of the safety messages. The progression of symbols is described below. Remember  
that safety messages by themselves do not eliminate danger and are not a substitute for proper  
accident prevention measures.  
Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided,  
WILL result in death or serious injury.  
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,  
COULD result in death or serious injury.  
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,  
MAY result in minor or moderate injury. It may also be used to alert  
against unsafe practices.  
This symbol is used to alert the user to useful information about  
proper operation of the equipment.

Safety Instructions For Power Tools  
9. USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make  
sure your extension cord is in good condi-  
tion. Conductor size should be in accor-  
dance with the chart below. The amperage  
rating should be listed on the motor or tool  
nameplate. An undersized cord will cause  
a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of  
power and overheating. Your extension  
cord must also contain a ground wire and  
plug pin. Always repair or replace exten-  
sion cords if they become damaged.  
16. REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTION-  
AL STARTING. On machines with magnet-  
ic contact starting switches there is a risk of  
starting if the machine is bumped or jarred.  
Always disconnect from power source  
before adjusting or servicing. Make sure  
switch is in OFF position before reconnecting.  
17. MANY WOODWORKING TOOLS CAN  
“KICKBACK” THE WORKPIECE toward the  
operator if not handled properly. Know what  
conditions can create “kickback” and know  
how to avoid them. Read the manual accom-  
panying the machine thoroughly.

18. CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before fur-  
ther use of the tool, a guard or other part  
that is damaged should be carefully  
checked to determine that it will operate  
properly and perform its intended function.  
Check for alignment of moving parts, bind-  
ing of moving parts, breakage of parts,  
mounting, and any other conditions that  
may affect its operation. A guard or other  
part that is damaged should be properly  
repaired or replaced.

10. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear  
loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings,  
bracelets, or other jewelry which may get  
caught in moving parts. Non-slip footwear  
is recommended. Wear protective hair cov-  
ering to contain long hair.  
19. NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNAT-  
TENDED. TURN POWER OFF. Do not  
leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.  
11. ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also  
use face or dust mask if cutting operation is  
dusty. Everyday eyeglasses only have impact  
resistant lenses, they are NOT safety glasses.  
20. NEVER OPERATE A MACHINE WHEN  
TIRED, OR UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF  
DRUGS OR ALCOHOL. Full mental alert-  
ness is required at all times when running a  
machine.  
12. SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold  
work when practical. It’s safer than using your  
hand and frees both hands to operate tool.  
21. NEVER ALLOW UNSUPERVISED OR  
UNTRAINED PERSONNEL TO OPER-  
ATE THE MACHINE. Make sure any  
instructions you give in regards to machine  
operation are approved, correct, safe, and  
clearly understood.  
13. DO NOT OVER-REACH. Keep proper  
footing and balance at all times.  
14. MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep  
tools sharp and clean for best and safest  
performance. Follow instructions for lubri-  
cating and changing accessories.  
22. IF AT ANY TIME YOU ARE EXPERIENC-  
ING DIFFICULTIES performing the intend-  
ed operation, stop using the machine! Then  
contact our service department or ask a  
qualified expert how the operation should  
be performed.  
15. USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES.  
Consult the owner’s manual for recom-  
mended accessories. The use of improper  
accessories may cause risk of injury.

110V Operation  
Extension Cords  
The Model H2854 is wired for 110/120V operation  
only. The 1 H.P. motor will safely draw 2.6 amps  
at 110V. If you operate this machine on any circuit  
that is already close to its capacity, it might blow  
a fuse or trip a circuit breaker. However, if an  
unusual load does not exist, and the circuit break-  
er still trips, contact a qualified electrician or our  
service department.  
If you find it necessary to use an extension cord  
with the Model H2854, make sure the cord is  
rated Hard Service (grade S) or better. Refer to  
the chart in the standard safety instructions to  
determine the minimum gauge for the extension  
cord. Always repair or replace extension cords  
when they become worn or damaged.

5. Insert the shaft of a 14" router bit into the col-  
let. Be sure to follow the router bit manufac-  
turer’s directions regarding how far the bit  
shaft must be inserted into the collet for safe  
operation.  
6. Once the bit is inserted into the collet, press  
the spindle shaft lock pin and continue to  
tighten the collet nut with the supplied open-  
end collet wrench as shown in Figure 5.  
NOTICE  
When the collet nut is removed from the  
spindle shaft, take care to prevent the collet  
from dropping onto the floor. The collet may  
become damaged if it is dropped, causing it  
to not secure router bits properly.

Dust Collection  
Depth Stop  
The Model H2854 is supplied with a dust collec-  
tion attachment. Routing produces large amounts  
of wood dust that can be both damaging to your  
lungs as well as messy around your worksite. We  
recommend connecting a vacuum system to the  
dust collection attachment to keep wood dust to a  
minimum. Use a tapered hose end to ensure a  
tight connection to the dust collection attachment.  
To mount the dust collection attachment to the  
router base:  
The Model H2854 is supplied with both standard  
and metric depth stops. To attach the depth stop:  
1.  
Loosen the lock knob located on the front of  
the router base and slide the desired stop  
into the diamond-shaped slot on the upper  
base as shown in Figure 7.  
2.  
Tighten the lock knob until the stop is held  
securely in place. Be sure not to overtighten  
the knob. Depth adjustment will be dis-  
cussed later in the manual.  
1.  
The dust collection attachment has a long  
lip on one side and two small lips on the  
other side. Line up the lips with the slots in  
the router base and snap into place as  
shown in Figure 6.  
2.  
Using two Phillips® head screws, secure the  
dust collection assembly to the base of the  
router.

SECTION 5: ADJUSTMENTS  
Disconnect power to the  
machine when perform-  
!
ing any maintenance,  
assembly or adjust-  
ments. Failure to do this  
may result in serious  
personal injury.  
Keep loose clothing  
rolled up and out of the  
way of machinery and  
keep hair pulled back.

during the entire adjust-  
ment process. Failure to  
comply may result in  
serious personal injury.  
Depth Stop  
The Model H2854 has a maximum spindle plunge  
depth of 112". To set the depth stop:  
1.  
2.  
Install the desired router bit into the collet.  
The Model H2854 is capable of a wide variety of  
routing operations. The key to successful use of  
the Model H2854 is understanding how to proper-  
ly adjust the tool for maximum performance.  
Without turning the router on, plunge the bit  
so that it extends below the base plate the  
same amount as the final depth of cut you  
desire to make.  
Spindle R.P.M.  
3.  
4.  
While holding the desired depth, press the  
plunge lock lever located on the right back  
corner of the upper router base as shown in  
Figure 9. This will lock the router in the pre-  
sent position. Recheck to make sure the bit  
is still extending below the base plate the  
desired amount.  
Using the correct spindle R.P.M. is critical to  
achieving the smoothest, safest cuts from your  
router. The general rule is the larger the diameter  
router bit, the lower the spindle R.P.M. should be.  
The Model H2854 is equipped with a speed  
adjustment dial as shown in Figure 8. Setting “1”  
is the slowest R.P.M. at 11,000. “6” is the highest  
R.P.M. setting at 26,000.  
Loosen the depth scale lock knob on the  
front of the upper router base. Let the depth  
gauge drop down to the shortest peg on the  
round depth stop turret.

pass that results in final depth of cut.  
5.  
Release the plunge lock lever and rotate the  
round depth stop turret to the highest of the  
three pegs. Your first routing pass will  
1
remove approximately 3 of the final depth  
of cut. Rotate the turret to the next highest  
peg and perform the second routing pass.

This pass will remove the next 3 of the  
material. Finally, turn the turret to the small-  
est peg (Figure 10) and perform the third  
routing pass. This will complete the routing  
operation to the final desired depth of cut.  
By performing your routing operations in three  
successive passes, you will get smoother results  
with less chance of “chip out” and burning of the  
workpiece. You will also reduce the possibility of  
the router jerking out of your hands from trying to  
remove too much material in one pass.

SECTION 6: OPERATIONS  
Once assembly is complete and adjustments are  
done to your satisfaction, you are ready to test run  
the machine.  
Test Run  
Turn on the power supply at the main panel.  
Press the START button. The machine should run  
smoothly, with little or no vibration or rubbing nois-  
es. Strange or unnatural noises should be investi-  
gated and corrected before operating the  
machine further.  
Disconnect power to the  
machine when perform-  
ing any maintenance,  
assembly or adjust-  
ments. Failure to do this  
may result in serious  
personal injury.  
!
If you cannot easily locate the source of an  
unusual noise or vibration, contact our service  
department for help.  
Keep loose clothing  
rolled up and out of the  
way of machinery and  
keep hair pulled back.  
General  
There are an endless number of operations that  
can be performed with the use of this router. The  
Model H2854 is supplied with several attach-  
ments that can greatly increase the productive-  
ness of the tool. These will be explained further  
along in the manual.  
Wear safety glasses dur-  
ing the entire operation  
process. Failure to com-  
ply may result in serious  
personal injury.  
Once the bit has been selected and installed  
properly, and the depth stop has been set cor-  
rectly (see Section 5: Adjustments), you need to  
determine the proper feed direction of the router  
across the workpiece:  
Always wear a dust  
mask when operating  
the H2854. Using this  
machine produces saw-  
dust which may cause  
allergic reactions or res-  
piratory problems.  
1.  
Examine the top face of workpiece you  
intend to route and determine the direction  
of the grain. Always feed the router so the bit  
is cutting with the grain (cutting along the  
growth rings as shown in Figure 11). Cutting  
against the grain chips the wood rather than  
cutting it, and makes for a rougher surface  
with more “chip out”.  
-12-

2.  
It is very important to pass the router across  
the workpiece so the bit is rotating opposite  
the feed direction as shown in Figure 11. If  
the cutters are moving in the same direction  
you are feeding the router, you are perform-  
ing a “climb cut.” This is a very dangerous  
operation because the router could lunge  
forward out of your hands, causing serious  
personal injury.  
Attachments  
Discussing every possible procedure that can be  
perform with a router is beyond the scope of this  
manual. We recommend seeking out your local  
library or newsstand for trade books, instructional  
videos or magazine articles that go further into  
depth on the uses for a router.  
Router Feed Direction  
Guide Bushing  
The guide bushing allows the router to follow a  
precut template pattern that has been attached to  
the top of the workpiece. When the bushing is  
installed onto the base of the router, the lip that  
protrudes from the bottom of the router base rides  
along the edge of a template while the 14" straight  
router bit routes the edge of the workpiece. The  
template must be at least as thick or thicker than  
the distance the bushing lip protrudes from the  
base. Adjust the depth of the bit so you achieve  
the desired depth of cut when taking into consid-  
eration the thickness of the template. Remember  
to make multiple passes if you are removing a lot  
of material.

Finally, it is important to remove material in  
multiple passes at incrementally deeper  
depths. The depth stop and round depth  
stop turret are designed to perform this func-  
tion efficiently.

Figure 12.  
Bit Centering Gauge  
The bit centering gauge is designed to keep the  
vertical center-line of the router bit flush with the  
edge of the workpiece. A good example of a use-  
ful operation for this attachment would be making  
rabbet cuts on the edge of the workpiece. If you  
1
use a 2" straight bit along with the bit centering  
1
gauge, you can make 4" rabbets on the edge of  
the workpiece.

Edge Guide  
Circle Cutter  
The edge guide is designed for dado and plow  
operations that need to be parallel and equidistant  
from a workpiece edge. The maximum distance  
from the edge that a dado or plow operation can  
be performed is 6 inches.  
The circle cutter consists of a pivot pin that attach-  
es to the edge guide. The edge guide must be  
installed in the inverted position as compared to  
its position when you are edge routing. Fasten the  
pivot bolt to one of the holes located on the cen-  
ter of the edge guide. Adjust the pivot bolt so it is  
set to the desired height. Place the pivot pin on  
the desired center location of the circle. Adjust the  
edge guide so that the distance between the  
inside edge of the bit and the pivot pin equals the  
radius of the desired circle. Set the depth of the  
router bit and you are ready to route a circle.

Flush Trim Guide  
The flush trim guide is designed to keep a router  
bit flush against a subsurface edge, similar to a bit  
with a flush guide bearing. This guide is used  
when trimming laminate flush with a subsurface  
edge. Adjust the guide so that it is flush with the  
cutting edge of the bit and rides along the subsur-  
face edge. The router bit and guide follow along  
the edge of the subsurface, trimming the laminate  
flush. Be sure the guide does not come into con-  
tact with the bit.

for routing operations. DO NOT MODIFY  
AND/OR USE THIS MACHINE FOR ANY

improper use of this tool will void the war-

Operating this equipment creates the poten-

when operating equipment. Everyday glass-

National Standards Institute (ANSI).  
Like all power tools, there is danger asso-  
ciated with the Model H2854. Accidents  
are frequently caused by lack of familiarity  
or failure to pay attention. Use this tool  
with respect and caution to lessen the  
possibility of operator injury. If normal  
safety precautions are overlooked or  
ignored, serious personal injury may  
occur.
