Place the tool on a flat surface. Loosen the lock lever
and lower the tool body until the bit just touches the flat
surface. Tighten the lock lever to lock the tool body.
Turn the stopper pole setting nut counterclockwise.
Lower the stopper pole until it makes contact with the
adjusting bolt. Align the depth pointer with the "0" grad-
uation. The depth of cut is indicated on the scale by the
depth pointer.
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).
By turning the stopper pole setting nut clockwise, you
can fasten the stopper pole firmly.
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.
Always firmly hold the tool by both grip during 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. Lower the tool body
and 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.

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.
• When using the straight guide, be sure to install
it on the right side in the feed direction. This
will help to keep it flush with the side of the
workpiece.

The straight guide is effectively used for straight cuts
when chamfering or grooving.

8. Wing bolts
Install the straight guide on the guide holder (optional
accessory) with the wing nut.
Insert the guide holder into the holes in the plunge
base and tighten the wing bolts. To adjust the distance
between the bit and the straight guide, loosen the wing
nut. At the desired distance, tighten the wing nut to
secure the straight guide in place.
Straight guide (optional accessory)
► Fig.44
The straight guide is effectively used for straight cuts
when chamfering or grooving.
► Fig.45: 1. Guide bar 2. Wing bolt 3. Straight guide
To install the straight guide, insert the guide bars
into the holes in the plunge base. Adjust the distance
between the bit and the straight guide. At the desired
distance, tighten the wing bolts to secure the straight
guide in place.
When cutting, move the tool with the straight guide flush
with the side of the workpiece.
► Fig.46
If the distance (A) between the side of the workpiece
and the cutting position is too wide for the straight
guide, or if the side of the workpiece is not straight, the
straight guide cannot be used. In this case, firmly clamp
a straight board to the workpiece and use it as a guide
against the router base. Feed the tool in the direction of
the arrow.
Templet guide (optional accessory)
► Fig.47
The templet guide provides a sleeve through which
the bit passes, allowing use of the tool with templet
patterns.
To install the templet guide, loosen the screws on the
tool base, insert the templet guide and then tighten the
screws.
► Fig.48: 1. Screw 2. Base 3. Templet
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.

NOTE:
• The workpiece will be cut a slightly different
size from the templet. Allow for the distance (X)
between the 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 -
bit diameter) / 2
