WARNING
PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
1
INTENDED USE.
Only use the 1600W Router as described
in this instruction manual. The use of any
accessory or attachment or performance
of any operation with this tool other than
those recommended in this instruction
manual may present a risk of personal
injury and/or damage to property.
This tool is not intended for use by
persons with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities, or lack of experience
and knowledge, unless they have
been given supervision or instructions
concerning use of the tool by a person
responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure
they do not play with the tool.
GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION.
WARNING! Read all safety warnings
and all instructions. Failure to follow the
warnings and instructions may result in
electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Please retain all warnings and instructions
for future reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings
refers to your mains-operated (corded)
power tool or battery-operated (cordless)
power tool.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY.
Avoid body contact with earthed or
grounded surfaces such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There
is an increased risk of electric shock if
your body is earthed or grounded.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering the power tool
will increase the risk of electric shock.
WORK AREA SAFETY.
Keep your work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power
tools create sparks which may ignite the
dust or fumes.
Keep bystanders, children and animals
away while operating the power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
BEFORE USE.
WARNING! Know your 1600W
Router. Do not plug the tool into the
power source until you have read and
understood the information in this
manual. Learn the tool’s applications
and limitations, as well as the specific
potential hazards related to this tool, in
order to reduce the risk of electric shock,
fire or serious injury.
WARNING! If any part is missing or
damaged, do not plug the tool into the
power source or install any accessory
until the missing or damaged part is
repaired or replaced. Failure to follow this
instruction could result in serious personal
injury.
Do not use a power tool while you are
tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol or medication. A moment of
inattention while operating power tools
may result in serious personal injury.
Use personal protective equipment.
Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as a dust mask, non-
skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate
conditions will reduce the risk of personal
injury.
WARNING! Contact with, or inhalation
of, dusts arising from cutting applications
may endanger the health of the operator
and possible bystanders. Wear a dust
mask specifically designed for protection
against dust and fumes and ensure that
persons within or entering the work area
WARNING
PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
are also protected.
Always wear eye protection. Any power
tool can throw foreign objects into your
eyes and cause permanent eye damage.
Always wear safety goggles (not glasses)
that comply with ANSI safety standard
Z87.1. Everyday glasses have only impact-
resistant lenses. They are not safety
glasses.
WARNING! Wearing glasses or goggles
NOT in compliance with ANSI Z87.1 when
operating this tool could cause serious
injury.
Dress appropriately. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving
parts to prevent them from becoming
caught in the tool.
Remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning the power tool on. A
wrench or key left attached to a rotating
part of the power tool may result in
personal injury.
If devices are provided for the connection
of dust extraction and collection facilities,
ensure that these are connected and
properly used to reduce dust-related
hazards.
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.
Make sure there are no nails or foreign
objects in the path of the workpiece to be
cut or sanded.
Be aware of hidden hazards, before
cutting into walls, floors or ceilings, check
for the location of wiring and pipes.
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure
the switch is in the off position before
connecting to the power source and/
or battery pack, picking up or carrying
the tool. Carrying power tools with
your finger on the switch or energising
power tools that are switched on invites
accidents.
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE.
Use the power tool, accessories and
Router 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.
WARNING! Use only accessories
recommended for this 1600W Router.
Follow the instructions that accompany
the accessories. The use of improper
accessories may result in injury to the
operator or damage the tool.
Do not use the power tool if the switch
does not turn it on and off. A power tool
that cannot be controlled with the switch
is dangerous and must be repaired.
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and
use common sense when operating a
power tool.
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces when performing an operation
where the cutting accessory may contact
hidden wiring or its own cord. A cutting
accessory contacting a “live” wire may
make exposed metal parts of the power
tool “live” and could give the operator an
electric shock.
Keep hands away from cutting area.
Never reach underneath a work piece
for any reason. Do not insert fingers or
thumb into the vicinity of the accessory/
sanding attachments. Do not force the
power tool. Use the correct power tool
for your application. The correct power
tool will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. This will enable
better control of the power tool in
WARNING
PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
unexpected situations.
Disconnect the plug from the power
source before making any adjustments,
changing accessories or storing. Such
preventative safety measures reduce
the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.
The accessory will continue to move
after releasing the switch. Always switch
the tool off and wait for the accessory
to come to a complete standstill before
putting the tool down.
Do not touch the workpiece or the
accessory immediately after operating the
tool. They can become very hot.
STORAGE & MAINTENANCE.
Store idle power tools out of 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.
Maintain the power tool. 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.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind
and are easier to control.
Keep accessories sharp. Dull or damaged
accessory may cause the 1600W Router
to swerve or stall under pressure. Always
use the appropriate type of accessories
for the work-piece material and type of
cut.
Never use dull accessory in the tool.
They will cut slower, leave rough cuts and
break easily due to added pressure and
excessive heat. They will also overload
the motor and cause premature failure of
the tool.
Have your power tool serviced by a
qualified repair person using identical
replacement parts only to ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.
AVOIDING KICKBACK.
Maintain a firm grip on the power tool
and position your body and arm to allow
you to resist kickback forces. Always use
auxiliary handle, if provided, for maximum
control over kickback or torque reaction
during start up.
The operator can control torque reactions
or kickback forces, if proper precautions
are taken.
Never place your hand near the rotating
accessory. Accessory may kickback over
your hand.
Do not position your body in the area
where power tool will move if kickback
occurs. Kickback will propel the tool in
the direction opposite to the wheel’s
movement at the point of snagging.
Use special care when working corners,
sharp edges etc. Avoid bouncing and
snagging the accessory. Corners, sharp
edges or bouncing have a tendency to
snag the rotating accessory and cause
loss of control or kickback.
