• DO NOT ALTER OR MISUSE TOOL.

These tools are precision built. Any alterations

or modifications not specified is misuse and

may result in a dangerous condition.

• THE USE OF ANY ACCESSORIES not

specified in this manual may create a hazard.

• MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep

tools sharp and clean for better and safer perfor-

mance. Follow instructions for lubricating and

changing accessories. Inspect tool cords peri-

odically and if damaged, have repaired by au-

thorized service facility. Inspect extension

cords periodically and replace if damaged. Keep

handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease.

• CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before fur-

ther use of the tool, a guard or other part that is

damaged should be carefully checked to deter-

mine that it will operate properly and perform

its intended function. Check for alignment of

moving parts, binding of moving parts, break-

age of parts, mounting, and any other condi-

tions that may affect its operation. A guard or

other part that is damaged should be promptly

and properly repaired or replaced. Have defec-

tive switches replaced. Do not use tool if switch

does not turn it on or off.

• ALL REPAIRS, ELECTRICAL OR ME-

CHANICAL, should be attempted only by

trained repairmen. Contact the nearest Bosch

Factory Service Center, or Bosch Authorized

Service Center or other competent repair cen-

ter. Use only Bosch replacement parts, any

other may create a hazard.

Safety Rules for Routers

• Never start the router when the bit is engaged

in the material. The bit's cutting edge may grab

the material causing the router to get out of

control. Always hold the router with two hands

during start-up. The reaction torque of the

motor can cause the router to twist.

• Always make sure the workpiece is free from

nails and other foreign objects which can cause

the bit and router to jump and damage the bit.

• Always wear safety goggles. If router has a

removable chip deflector, keep it in place when

routing.

• Never touch the router bit or other moving

part during use. After use the router bit is too

hot to be touched by bare hands.

BM 2610967928 1/97

• If router bit is protruding through the base,

never lay the router down until the motor has

come to a complete standstill.

• Never hold the workpiece in one hand and

the router in other when in use. Always clamp

the material and hold the router securely with

both hands.

• Never use bits that have a cutting diameter

greater than the opening in the base.

• After changing the bits or making any adjust-

ments, make sure the collet nut and any other

adjustment devices are securely tightened be-

fore using the router.

• The direction of feeding the router into the

material is very important and it relates to the

direction of bit rotation. When viewing the

router from the top, the bit rotates clockwise.

When the router is located between your body

and the material, the feed direction must be to

the right. If the material is located between your

body and the router, then the feed direction

must be to the left. Feeding the router in the

wrong direction causes the cutting edge of the

bit to climb out of the work and pull the router

in the direction of this feed.

Double Insulated Tools

• Double Insulation

used in electric power tools which eliminates

the need for the three wire grounded power cord

and grounded power supply system. It is a

recognized and approved system by

Underwriter's Laboratories, CSA and Federal

OSHA authorities.

IMPORTANT:

double insulation requires care and knowledge

of the system and should be performed only by

a qualified service technician. WHEN SER-

VICE IS REQUIRED USE ONLY IDENTI-

CAL REPLACEMENT PARTS.

POLARIZED PLUGS: If your tool is equipped

with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than

the other), this plug will fit in a polarized outlet

only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the

outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,

contact a qualified electrician to install the

proper outlet. To reduce the risk of electric

shock do not change the plug in any way.
