FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
•
unplugged before adjusting or checking function on
the tool.
Adjusting bit protrusion
Fig.1
To adjust the bit protrusion, loosen the clamping nut and
move the tool base up or down as desired by turning the
adjusting screw. After adjusting, tighten the clamping nut
firmly to secure the tool base.
Switch action
Fig.2
To start the tool, move the switch lever to the I (ON)
position. To stop the tool, move the switch lever to the O
(OFF) position.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
•
unplugged before carrying out any work on the
tool.
Installing or removing trimmer bit
Fig.3
CAUTION:
Use only the wrenches provided with the tool.
•
Insert the bit all the way into the collet cone and tighten
the collet nut securely with the two wrenches.
To remove the bit, follow the installation procedure in
reverse.

OPERATION

Set the tool base on the workpiece to be cut without the
bit making any contact. Then turn the tool on and wait
until the bit attains full speed. Move the tool forward over
the workpiece surface, keeping the tool base flush and
advancing smoothly until the cutting is complete.
When doing edge cutting, the workpiece surface should
be on the left side of the bit in the feed direction.

NOTE:
Moving the tool forward too fast may cause a poor
•
quality of cut, or damage to the bit or motor.
Moving the tool forward too slowly may burn and
mar the cut. The proper feed rate will depend on
the bit size, the kind of workpiece and depth of cut.
Before beginning the cut on the actual workpiece, it
is advisable to make a sample cut on a piece of
scrap lumber. This will show exactly how the cut
will look as well as enable you to check
dimensions.
Fig.4
NOTE:
When using the trimmer shoe, the straight guide or
•
the trimmer guide, be sure to keep it on the right
side in the feed direction. This will help to keep it
flush with the side of the workpiece.
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 3 mm at a pass
when cutting grooves. When you wish to cut
grooves more than 3 mm deep, make several
passes with progressively deeper bit settings.
Templet guide
Fig.5
The templet guide provides a sleeve through which the
bit passes, allowing use of the trimmer with templet
patterns.
Remove the chip deflector.
Fig.6
Loosen the screws and remove the base protector.
Place the templet guide on the base and replace the
base protector. Then secure the base protector by
tightening the screws.
Secure the templet to the workpiece. Place the tool on
the templet and move the tool with the templet guide
sliding along the side of the templet.
Fig.7
NOTE:
The workpiece will be cut a slightly different size
•
from the templet. Allow for the distance (X)
between the router bit and the outside of the
templet guide. The distance (X) can be calculated
by using the following equation:
Distance (X) = (outside diameter of the templet guide -
router bit diameter) / 2
Straight guide (Accessory)
Fig.8
The straight guide is effectively used for straight cuts
when chamfering or grooving.
Attach the guide plate to the straight guide with the bolt
and the wing nut.
