b ) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn
it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c ) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/
or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from
the power tool before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally.
d ) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children
and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power
tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e ) Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage
of parts and any other condition that may affect the
power tool's operation. If damaged, have the power
tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
f ) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to control.
g ) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits, etc.
in accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for operations different
from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
h ) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and
free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping
surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the
tool in unexpected situations.
5) Service
a ) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts. This
will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Additional Specific Safety Rules for
Compact Routers
Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces when
performing an operation where the cutting tool may
contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a "live"
wire will make some exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and
shock the operator.
Use clamps or another practical way to secure and
support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the
work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and may
lead to loss of control.
For personal protection, ALWAYS wear a dust mask.
DO NOT cut metal.
Keep handles and gripping surfaces dry, clean, and
free from oil and grease. This will enable better control of
the tool.
Maintain firm grip with both hands on router to resist
starting torque.
Keep hands away from cutting area. Never reach under
the workpiece for any reason. Keep the router base firmly in
30
contact with the workpiece when cutting. These precautions
will reduce the risk of personal injury.
Never run the motor unit when it is not inserted in one of
the router bases. The motor is not designed to be handheld.
Keep cutting pressure constant. Do not overload motor.
Check to see that the cord will not snag or impede the
routing operation.
Use sharp cutters. Dull cutters may cause the router to
swerve or stall under pressure.
Be sure that the motor has stopped completely before
you lay the router down. If the cutter head is still spinning
when the tool is laid down, it could cause injury or damage.
Be sure that the router cutter is clear of the workpiece
before starting the motor. If the cutter is in contact with
the workpiece when the motor starts it could make the router
jump, causing damage or injury.
ALWAYS disconnect tool from power source before
making adjustments or changing cutters.
Keep hands clear of cutter when motor is running to
prevent personal injury.
Never touch the cutter immediately after use. It may be
extremely hot.
Provide clearance under workpiece for router cutter
when through-cutting.
Tighten collet nut securely to prevent the cutter
from slipping.
Never tighten collet nut without a cutter.
Do not use router cutters with a diameter in excess of
30 mm in this tool.
Avoid Climb-Cutting (cutting in direction opposite that
shown in Fig. L). Climb-Cutting increases the chance
for loss of control resulting in possible injury. When
"Climb-Cutting" is required (backing around a corner), exercise
extreme caution to maintain control of router. Make smaller
cuts and remove minimal material with each pass.
Always use straight-cutters, rabbet-cutters, profile cutters,
slotter cutters or grooved knives with a shank diameter of
6–8 mm which corresponds to the size of the collet in your tool.
Always use cutters suitable for a speed of min. 30000 min
marked accordingly.

WARNING: Never use cutters with a diameter exceeding
the maximum diameter indicated in the technical data.

WARNING: We recommend the use of a residual current
device with a residual current rating of 30mA or less.
Residual Risks
In spite of the application of the relevant safety regulations
and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual risks
cannot be avoided. These are:
Impairment of hearing.
Risk of personal injury due to flying particles.
Risk of burns due to accessories becoming hot
during operation.
Risk of personal injury due to prolonged use.
