PERSONAL SAFETY
Use Personal Protection Safety Equipment
Protect eyes with safety glasses or goggles note: the use
of safety protective eyewear without the CE mark can
lead to serious injury if the lens breaks. A suitable dust
mask should be worn if cutting, drilling or sanding is
dusty, in particular chipboard or MDF.
Approved safety footwear and headgear should worn as
appropriate, for example on building works or when
heavy weights are involved. Wear suitable gloves and
apron to protect against sparks/debris. Wear earplugs
or ear defenders.
Dress properly
Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. It can get caught
in moving parts. Non-skid footwear is recommended
when working out doors. Wear protective hair covering
to contain long hair.
Stay alert
Watch what you are doing Use common sense. Do not
operate tools when tired or after taking alcohol or pre-
scription/ non-prescription drugs.
OPERATIONAL SAFETY
Warning! Always make sure the machine is
switched off and unplugged when its not being
used, you are changing cutters or moving the work piece. See
safe work order summary section for details
Be aware: this is a powerful machine and requires two hands
to operate it.
Concentrate
Routine and repetition can lead to mistakes. Remember
that a slight lack of concentration can result in serious
injuries in a split second.
Keep work area clean
Cluttered areas and benches invite injuries.
Consider the work environment
Do not expose power tools to rain or use them in damp
or wet locations. Keep work area well lit. Do not use
power tools in the presence of flammable liquids, vap-
ours or gases.
Guard against electric shock
This unit contains dangerous voltages. Use a RCD (resi-
dual current device) to provide protection against elec-
trical shock. Prevent body contact with grounded sur-
faces (e.g. pipes, radiator, ranges or refrigerators).
Keep children and pets away
Do not let children or pets come into contact with the
tool, extension cable or work area.
Do not force the tool
It will work better and safer at the rate for which it was
intended.
Use the right tool
Do not force small tools or attachments to do the job of a
heavy-duty tool. Do not use tools for purposes for which
they were not intended; for example do not use a circular
saw for cutting trees or logs.
Do not abuse the cable
Never carry the tool by the cable or pull it to disconnect
it from the power socket. Keep the cable away from heat,
oil and sharp edges. Do not touch the metal plug pins
when connecting or removing the plug.
Secure work
Use clamps or a vice to hold work. It is safer than using
your hand and it frees both hands to operate the tool. Be
aware that this router is a powerful machine; you must
use two hands to control it.
Do not over-reach
Keep a proper footing and balance at all times.
Disconnect tools from power supply
When not in use, before servicing and when changing
accessories such as blades, bits and cutters.
Always switch off and unplug the router from the
power supply before making adjustments or chan-
ging cutters.
Remove adjusting keys and wrenches
Ensure that they are removed from the tool before swit-
ching on.
Avoid unintentional starting
Do not carry plugged in tools with your finger on the
switch. Check that the switch is off before plugging in to
socket.
Extension cables
Use only three core earthed extension cables suitable
for the power input of the tool (minimum cable size
1.5mm2). Plug into an earthed socket only.
When using a cable reel unwind it fully. Do not use long
extension cables.
Outdoors use
If the tool is suitable to be used outdoors, only use an
extension cable intended for outdoor use and marked
accordingly. Use a RCD (residual current device) to pro-
vide protection against electrical shock. Do not use in
rain or damp conditions.
Connect a dust extraction device
Whenever there are facilities for fitting a dust or fume
extraction system, make sure it is connected and used.
Use recommended accessories
The use of any other accessory or attachment other than
recommended in the instructions or catalogue may pre-
sent a risk of personal injury. Use extension cables suita-
ble for the power input of the machine (minimum cable
size 1.5mm2). When using a cable reel unwind the cable
fully.
