SPECIFIC PRODUCT WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
1. AVOID OVERLOADINGTHE TOOL. If the speed drops abnormally, decrease the
pressure immediately.
2. ALWAYS USE SHARPENED BITS. If the bit stops abruptly, or the bit becomes
blocked, release the trigger switch immediately.
3. USE THE LOCKING TRIGGER SWITCH PROPERLY. Be aware that the router
will continue to operate while the locking mechanism is engaged. Never lay the
router down or hand it to another person while the locking mechanism is engaged.
4. BEFORE ROUTING, RUN THE TOOL FOR ABOUT 10 SECONDS to ensure
that all moving parts are running smoothly and there are no loose parts, rattles, or
sparking that would indicate damage.
5. WARNING: Under no circumstance is the Router base ever to be removed from
the Router in order to use bits that are too large to use with the base assembly
attached. The removal of the Router base and using the Router “Free Hand” can
lead to serious bodily injury!!
6. IF USING AN EXTENSION CORD, observe the minimum gauge requirements
found in the following chart. Improper extension cord use can result in electrical
hazard and poor tool performance.
Use only UL approved extension cord.
REV 04/02; 03/06
7. AVOID WET CONDITIONS WHEN USING ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT.
8. USE ONLY GROUNDED OUTLET with appropriate breaker switch inline.
9. ALWAYS INSPECT POWER CORDS AND EXTENSION CORDS for damage
before use. Never plug in a power cord that is not in good condition.
10. HOLD TOOL BY INSULATED GRIPPING SURFACES WHEN PERFORMING
AN OPERATION WHERE THE CUTTING TOOL MAY CONTACT HIDDEN
WIRING OR ITS OWN CORD. Contact with a “live” wire will make exposed metal
parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator.
11. PEOPLE WITH PACEMAKERS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR PHYSICIAN(S)
BEFORE USINGTHIS PRODUCT. Electromagnetic fields in close proximity to a
heart pacemaker could cause interference to or failure of the pacemaker. In
addition, people with pacemakers should adhere to the following:
Avoid operating power tools alone.
Don’t use a power tool with the power switch locked on.
Be certain that the tool is properly grounded. A ground fault interrupt (GFCI) system
is also a good precaution. This inexpensive device is a good safety measure

UNPACKING
When unpacking, check to make sure all parts shown on the Parts List
(page 11 and 12) are included. If any parts are missing or broken, please call
Harbor Freight Tools at the number shown on the cover of this manual as soon as

because it prevents a sustained electrical shock.
Properly maintain and inspect all tools before use to avoid electrical shock.
12. WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and
other construction activities, contains chemicals known [to the State of California]
to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these
chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement or other masonry products
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of
work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area,
and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are
specially designed to filter out microscopic particles. (California Health & Safety
Code § 25249.5,
et seq.
)
To Install The Router Bit:
1. Check to make sure the Router is
unplugged from the electrical power
source.
2. Fully insert the Bit (not included) into
the Collet Chuck (part #24). Firmly
tighten the Collet Chuck with the two
accessory Wrenches (parts #63 &
#64). (Figure A)
3. NOTE: When using bits with a shaft
diameter of 6mm, 8mm, 10mm, 1/4”
or 3/8” use the Chuck Sleeve (part
#77). Fully insert the Chuck Sleeve
into the Collet Chuck. Then, insert
the Bit into the Chuck Sleeve and
firmly tighten the Collet Chuck with
the two accessory Wrenches.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: All parts below refer to the parts listed on page 11 of this manual.
SKU 43585 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353. Page 6
To Adjust The Depth Of The Cut:
1. Loosen the Knob (part #46). Adjust the Stopper Pole (part #45) and the Stopper
Block (part #32) to obtain the required cutting depth. Then, retighten the Knob.
Check to make sure that, even if released with the Lock Lever, the Router stops at
the determined depth for repeated cuts. (Figure B)
2. Minute depth adjustments can be made by raising or lowering the Stopper Pole.
3. By turning the Lock Nuts (part #22) left or right, the tool can be adjusted to a
different
upper
limit. When the tip of the Router Bit is retracted more than required
in relation to the Base Plate (part #40) surface, turn the Lock Nuts to lower the
upper limit for more effective routing. (Figure C)

To Adjust The Triple Depth Stop:
1. Three different cutting depths can be concurrently set by adjusting the two cut-
depth setting Screws (parts #37 & #38) located on the Stopper Block (part #32).
Make sure the two Nuts (part #39) are securely tightened to prevent loosening of
the cut-depth setting Screws. (Figure B)

To Use The Straight Guide:
1. The Straight Guide is used to make parallel cuts, or to make cuts on the
edge of a work piece.
2. Assemble the Straight Guide (part #76) onto the Bar Holder Assembly (part #69),
using the Wing Bolt (part #66). NOTE: Loosely hand tighten the Wing Bolt.
(Figure D)
3. Insert the two bars of the Bar Holder Assembly fully into the Base Plate, and
securely tighten the two Wing Nuts (part #84). (Figure E)
4. Fine Adjust the desired distance from the Router Bit to the edge of the Straight
Guide by turning the Feed Screw (part #70). When the desired distance is deter-
mined, securely tighten the Wing Bolt (part #66) located on the Bar Holder
Assembly (part #69).
5. Set the Base of the Router firmly against the surface of the workpiece, and align
the Straight Guide with the edge of the workpiece. (Figure F)

Caution: Always make sure the
workpiece is firmly clamped to the
work surface before using the Plunge
Router.
When using the Plunge Router, both
hands should firmly grasp the
Handles (#25 and #26) to insure
complete control of the tool while it
is being used.
SKU 43585 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353. Page 8
To Use The Template Guide:
1. The Template Guide is used with a template (not provided) for producing a
large quantity of identically shaped products. A template is a mold made of
plywood or thin lumber. The template should also have openings large
enough to admit the Router Bit and the Template Guide.
2. Secure the Template Guide (part #65) to the Base of the Router with the two
accessory Machine Screws (part #67). Make sure the projected side of the Tem-
plate Guide is facing the bottom surface of the Base of the Router. (Figure G)
3. Clamp the template to the workpiece in the desired location.
4. Feed the Router in a manner so that the Template Guide moves along the
template.

To Use The Trimmer Guide:
The Trimmer Guide allows you to follow curved edges. NOTE: Because the
Trimmer Guide is narrower than the Straight Guide, it requires greater skill
and attention to produce a cut that is consistent in its relation to the edge.
1. To assemble the Trimmer Guide Assembly (part #71) attach the Roller (part #72) to
the Set Plate (part #73) using the accessory Bolt Washer (part #74) and the Wing
Bolt (part #75). (Figure I)
2. Attach the Trimmer Guide Assembly to the Bar Holder (part #69), using the acces-
sory Bolt Washer (part #74) and the Wing Bolt (part #75). (Figure J)
3. After measuring and setting the desired distance from Bit cutting depth to edge of
workpiece, carefully follow the edge of the workpiece as shown. (Figure K)

To Follow The Best Routing Direction:
1. The Router Bit rotates clockwise. Therefore, you should adjust for this
while cutting.
2. For most materials it is best to move the Router from left to right as you face
the workpiece.
3. When cutting outside edges, move the Router counterclockwise. When cutting
inside edges, move the Router clockwise.
MAINTENANCE
NOTE: ALWAYS disconnect this tool from its electrical supply source
before performing any cleaning, maintenance, changing Router Bits or
Brushes.
1. Clean with a damp cloth and dry. If necessary, use a mild detergent.
2. For better product performance, periodically lubricate its moving parts, using a
light-grade lubricant.
3. To change the two Carbon Brushes (part #44), use a Standard screwdriver (not
provided) to remove the two Brush Caps (part #43) located on each side of the
Router.
4. Remove the old Carbon Brushes and replace with the two accessory Carbon
Brushes. Replace the Brush Caps. (Figure L)
