OPERATION

WARNING:

If the collet nut is not securely tightened, the bit may

detach during use, causing serious personal injury.

WARNING:

Never use bits which are larger in diameter than the open-

ing in the router subbase. These situations could cause

possible loss of control or create other hazardous condi-

tions that could cause possible serious personal injury.

CAUTION:

To prevent damage to the spindle or spindle lock, always

allow motor to come to a complete stop before engaging

the spindle lock.

WARNING:

If you are changing a bit immediately after use, be careful

not to touch the collet nut, bit, or collet with your hands or

fingers. You will get burned because of the heat buildup

from cutting. Always use the wrench provided.

WARNING:

Bit continues to rotate after the router has been turned off.

To avoid injury, wait until the bit has come to a complete

stop before removing router from the workpiece.
