4. Slide the depth adjustment rod 15 down so that it meets the lowest turret stop 14 . 5. Slide the zero adjuster tab 41 on the depth adjustment rod down so that the top of it meets zero on the depth adjustment scale 42 . 6. Grasping the top, knurled section of the depth adjustment rod 15 , slide it up so that the tab 41 aligns with the desired depth of cut on the depth adjustment scale 42 . 7. Tighten the thumb screw 40 to hold the depth adjustment rod in place. 8. Keeping both hands on the handles, unlock the plunge mechanism by pulling the plunge lock lever 16 down. The plunge mechanism and the motor will move up. When the router is plunged, the depth adjustment rod will hit the turret stop, allowing the router to reach exactly the desired depth. Using the Rotating Turret for Stepped Cuts (Fig. M) If the depth of cut required is more than is acceptable in a single pass, rotate the turret so that depth rod 15 lines up with taller turret stop initially. After each cut, rotate the turret so that the depth stop lines up with shorter post until the final depth of cut is reached. WARNING: Do not change the turret stop while the router is running. This will place your hands too near the cutter head. Fine Adjustment of Routing Depth (Fig. M) The knurled knob 43 at the bottom end of the depth adjustment rod can be used to make minor adjustments. 1. To decrease the cutting depth, rotate the knob clockwise (looking down from the top of the router). 2. To increase the cutting depth, rotate the knob counterclockwise (looking down from the top of the router). NOTE: One complete rotation of the knob results in a change of about 5/128" or .04" (1 mm) in depth. Removing the Motor from the Plunge Base (Fig. M) 1. Remove the battery pack from the motor. Refer to Installing and Removing the Battery Pack. 2. Open the locking lever 39 on the base. 3. Grasp the motor unit with one hand and the base with the other hand, pull motor from the plunge base. OPERATION WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn unit off and remove the battery pack before making any adjustments or removing/ installing attachments or accessories. An accidental start-up can cause injury. English Installing and Removing the Battery Pack (Fig. N) CAUTION: Before inserting the battery, check to see that the switch is in the OFF position. An accidental start-up can cause injury. NOTE: For best results, make sure your battery pack is fully charged. To install the battery pack 1 into the tool handle, align the battery pack with the rails inside the tool's handle and slide it into the handle until the battery pack is firmly seated in the tool and ensure that it does not disengage. To remove the battery pack from the tool, press the release button 2 and firmly pull the battery pack out of the tool handle. Insert it into the charger as described in the charger section of this manual. Fig. N 1 2 Proper Hand Position (Fig. A, O, P) WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, ALWAYS use proper hand position as shown. WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, ALWAYS hold securely in anticipation of a sudden reaction. When using the fixed base, one hand should be on top of the battery and the other hand around the fixed base (Fig. O). When using the plunge base, grasp the side handles 18 (Fig. A) firmly as shown in Fig. P. Fig. O 13
