SAFETY WARNINGS FOR ROUTER
Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable
platform . Holding the work by your hand or against the body leaves it unstable and may lead
to loss of control.
Never hold the piece being cut in your hands or across your legs . It is important to
support and clamp the workpiece properly in order to minimize body exposure, bit binding, or
loss of control.
Maintain a firm grip on the router with both hands to resist starting torque .
Never attempt to use the router motor without first installing it in an approved fixed
base . Failure to heed this warning could result in personal injury and damage to the motor.
Make sure that the router motor does not move up or down when clamped in the fixed
base . Improperly secured router motor may create a risk of injury.
Do not hand-hold the router in an upside down or horizontal position . The motor can
separate from the base, if not properly attached according to the instructions.
Tighten the collet/nut securely to prevent the cutter bit from slipping . If the collet/nut is
not securely tightened, the cutter bit may detach during use, causing serious personal injury.
Never tighten the collet/nut without a cutter bit installed in the collet/nut .
Stay alert and clear the router cutter bit path of any obstructions before starting the
motor . Keep cutting area clear of all foreign objects while the motor is running. Inspect and
remove all nails from lumber before routing.
Make sure that the cutter bit is not in contact with the workpiece before the switch is
turned on . The bit must always be running at full speed before contacting the workpiece.
Keep hands clear of the cutter bit when the motor is running to prevent personal injury .
Provide clearance under the workpiece for the router cutter bit when through-cutting .
Keep cutting pressure constant . Do not overload the motor.
Use only sharp cutter bits that are not chipped or cracked . Blunt cutter bits will cause
stalling and burn the workpiece.
Never use this router motor with a cutter bit larger than 3-1/2 inches (89 mm) in
diameter .
Always use cutter bits that are designed for this router . Never use cutter bits which
are larger in diameter than the opening in the router sub-base . Cutter bits that have
cutter diameters larger than the opening could cause possible loss of control or create other
hazardous condition that could cause serious personal injury.
The sub-base on this router has an opening of 1-1/4 inches (31 .5 mm) . To use cutter bits
with a larger diameter, install and use a sub-base with a larger diameter opening.
