FUNCTIONAL
DESCRIPTION
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is
switched off and unplugged before adjusting or
checking function on the tool.

1.
Place the tool on a flat surface. Loosen the lock lever
and lower the tool body until the router bit just touches the
flat surface. Tighten the lock lever to lock the tool body.
2. Turn the stopper pole setting nut counterclock-
wise. Lower the stopper pole until it makes contact
with the adjusting hex bolt. Align the depth pointer with
the "0" graduation. The depth of cut is indicated on the
scale by the depth pointer.
3. While pressing the fast-feed button, raise the
stopper pole until the desired depth of cut is obtained.
Minute depth adjustments can be obtained by turning
the adjusting knob (1 mm per turn).
4.
By turning the stopper pole setting nut clockwise,
you can fasten the stopper pole firmly.
5. Now, your predetermined depth of cut can be
obtained by loosening the lock lever and then lowering
the tool body until the stopper pole makes contact with
the adjusting hex bolt of the stopper block.
Nylon nut
CAUTION:
Do not lower the nylon nut too low.
The router bit will protrude dangerously.
The upper limit of the tool body can be adjusted by
turning the nylon nut.

Stopper block
CAUTION:
Since excessive cutting may cause
overload of the motor or difficulty in controlling
the tool, the depth of cut should not be more than
15 mm at a pass when cutting grooves with an 8
mm diameter bit.
CAUTION:
When cutting grooves with a 20
mm diameter bit, the depth of cut should not be
more than 5 mm at a pass.
CAUTION:
For extra-deep grooving opera-
tions, make two or three passes with progres-
sively deeper bit settings.
As the stopper block has three adjusting hex bolts
which raise or lower 0.8 mm per turn, you can easily
obtain three different depths of cut without readjusting
the stopper pole.
► Fig.3: 1. Stopper pole 2. Adjusting hex bolt
3. Stopper block
Adjust the lowest adjusting hex bolt to obtain the deep-
est depth of cut, following the method of "Adjusting the
depth of cut".
Adjust the two remaining adjusting hex bolts to obtain
shallower depths of cut. The differences in height of
these adjusting hex bolts are equal to the differences in
depths of cut.
To adjust the adjusting hex bolts, turn the adjusting hex
bolts with a screwdriver or wrench. The stopper block is
also convenient for making three passes with progres-
sively deeper bit settings when cutting deep grooves.
Switch action
CAUTION:
Before plugging in the tool, always
check to see that the switch trigger actuates
properly and returns to the "OFF" position when
released.
CAUTION:
Make sure that the shaft lock is
released before the switch is turned on.
To prevent the switch trigger from being accidentally
pulled, a lock button is provided.
► Fig.4: 1. Lock button 2. Switch trigger
To start the tool, depress the lock button and pull the
switch trigger. Release the switch trigger to stop.
For continuous operation, depress the lock button fur-
ther while the switch trigger is being pulled.
To stop the tool, pull the switch trigger so that the lock
button returns automatically. Then release the switch
trigger.
After releasing the switch trigger, the lock-off function
works to prevent the switch trigger from being pulled.
CAUTION:
Hold the tool firmly when turning
off the tool, to overcome the reaction.
Electronic function
The tool is equipped with the electronic functions for
easy operation.
Indication lamp
► Fig.5: 1. Indication lamp
The indication lamp lights up green when the tool is
plugged. If the indication lamp does not light up, the
mains cord or the controller may be defective. The indi-
cation lamp is lit but the tool does not start even if the
tool is switched on, the carbon brushes may be worn
out, or the controller, the motor or the ON/OFF switch
may be defective.
Unintentional restart proof
The tool does not start with the switch trigger pulled
even when the tool is plugged.
At this time, the indication lamp blinks in red and shows
the unintentional restart proof device is on function.
To cancel the unintentional restart proof, release the
switch trigger.
Soft start feature
Soft-start feature minimizes start-up shock, and makes
the tool start smoothly.
