Assembly & Adjustments

INSTALLING A ROUTER BIT

A wide assortment of router bits with different

profiles is available separately. Use 1/2"

shank whenever possible, and only use good

quality bits.

To prevent personal injury,

always remove the plug

from power source before removing or

installing bits or accessories.

Place router upside down or lay router on its

side with the base resting on the bench.

Another option is to remove the motor from

the base before installing the bit.

NOTE: The bit shank and collet chuck should

be clean and free of dust, wood, residue and

grease before assembling.

1. Hold the armature shaft in place with the

shaft wrench (Fig. 5).

2. Next, use the collet wrench to loosen the

collet chuck assembly in counter-clockwise

direction (viewed from under the router).

3. Insert the shank of the router bit into the

collet chuck assembly as far as it will go,

then back the shank out until the cutters

are approximately 1/8" to 1/4" away from

the collet nut face. To ensure proper

gripping of the router bit and minimize

run-out, the shank of the router bit must

be inserted at least 5/8" (16 mm).

4. With the router bit inserted and the shaft

wrench holding the armature shaft, use the

collet wrench to firmly tighten the collet

chuck assembly in a clockwise direction

(viewed from under the router).

Cutter diameter must be at

least 1/4” (6.35 mm) smaller

than opening in subbase and/or base for

the bit and cutter.

When using a templet

guide, do not use a router

bit with cutter that exceeds the maximum

recommended size (See page 21).

To prevent damage to tool,

do not tighten collet

without a bit.

Always be sure the collet

chuck is tightened securely

before use.

REMOVING A ROUTER BIT

1. Use the shaft and collet chuck wrenches

as described earlier, and turn the collet

chuck assembly in a counter-clockwise

direction.

2. Once the collet chuck assembly is

loosened continue to turn the collet chuck

assembly until it pulls the collet free from

its taper, and the router bit can be

removed.

NOTE: The collet chuck is self-extracting; it

is NOT necessary to strike the collet chuck to

free the router bit.
