manual abstract
The stopper block is also convenient for making three passes with progressively deeper bit settings when cutting deep grooves. CAUTION: • When using a bit having total length of 60 mm (2 - 3/8”) or more, or edge length of 35 mm (1 - 3/8”) or more, the depth of cut cannot be adjusted as previously mentioned. To adjust, proceed as follows: Loosen the lock lever and carefully adjust bit protrusion below the tool base to the desired depth of cut by moving the tool body up or down. Then re-tighten the lock lever to lock the tool body at that depth of cut. Keep the tool body locked at this position during use. Since the bit always protrudes from the tool base, be careful when handling the tool. 003255 Adjusting the lock lever The locked position of the lock lever is adjustable. To adjust it, loosen the lock lever 3/4 turn and press the center of the lock lever. The hex nut will come out. Set the hex nut to the desired position and tighten the lock lever. 1 1. Hex nut 003256 003256 CAUTION: • Before plugging in the tool, always check to see that the switch trigger actuates properly and returns to the “OFF” position when released. To start the tool, simply pull the switch trigger. Release the switch trigger to stop. ASSEMBLY CAUTION: • Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before carrying out any work on the tool. Installing or removing router bit Insert the bit all the way into the collet cone and tighten the collet nut securely with the two wrenches. To remove the bit, follow the installation procedure in reverse. CAUTION: Do not tighten the collet nut without inserting a bit, or the collet cone will break. 003258 Dust nozzle (optional accessory) When you wish to perform clean cutting operation, use the dust nozzle. Install the dust nozzle on the router base using the two screws and connect a vacuum cleaner to the dust nozzle. 1 1. Switch trigger • 003257 1 2 3 1. Dust nozzle 2. Hose of vacuum cleaner 3. Screws OPERATION Set the tool base on the workpiece to be cut without the bit making any contact. Then turn the tool on and wait until the bit attains full speed. Lower the tool body and move the tool forward over the workpiece surface, keeping the tool base flush and advancing smoothly until the cutting is complete. When doing edge cutting, the workpiece surface should be on the left side of the bit in the feed direction. 001984 001984 1 2 3 4 4 1. Workpiece 2. Bit revolving direction 3. View from the top of the tool 4. Feed direction NOTE: • Moving the tool forward too fast may cause a poor quality of cut, or damage to the bit or motor. Moving the tool forward too slowly may burn and mar the cut. The proper feed rate will depend on the bit size, the kind of workpiece and depth of cut. Before beginning the cut on the actual workpiece, it is advisable to make a sample cut on a piece of scrap lumber. This will show exactly how the cut will look as well as enable you to check dimensions. • When using the straight guide, be sure to install it on the right side in the feed direction. This will help to keep it flush with the side of the workpiece. 003259 Straight guide The straight guide is effectively used for straight cuts when chamfering or grooving. To install the straight guide, insert the guide bars into the holes in the tool base. Adjust the distance between the bit and the straight guide. At the desired distance, tighten the wing bolts to secure the straight guide in place. 003260 1 2 3 1. Straight guide 2. Guide bar 3.

If the distance (A) between the side of the workpiece and the cutting position is too wide for the straight guide, or if the side of the workpiece is not straight, the straight guide cannot be used. In this case, firmly clamp a straight board to the workpiece and use it as a guide against the router base. Feed the tool in the direction of the arrow. 003262 Templet guide (optional accessory) The templet guide provides a sleeve through which the bit passes, allowing use of the router with templet patterns. 003263 To install the templet guide, loosen the screws on the tool base, insert the templet guide and then tighten the screws. 1 2 3 1.

MAINTENANCE ACCESSORIES CAUTION: • Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or maintenance. To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, carbon brush inspection and replacement, any other maintenance or adjustment should be performed by Makita Authorized or Factory Service Centers, always using Makita replacement parts. CAUTION: • These accessories or attachments are recommended for use with your Makita tool specified i...
