DeWalt D26203 Original Instructions Manual page 33

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.
Electrical Safety
The electric motor has been designed for one voltage only.
Always check that the power supply corresponds to the voltage
on the rating plate.
Your D WALT tool is double insulated in accordance
e
with EN62841; therefore no earth wire is required.

WARNING: 115 V units have to be operated via a fail-safe
isolating transformer with an earth screen between the
primary and secondary winding.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced only by
D WALT or an authorised service organisation.

WARNING: No connection is to be made to the
earth terminal.
Follow the fitting instructions supplied with good quality plugs.
Recommended fuse: 13 A.
