GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY
WARNINGS
WARNING: Read all safety warnings,
instructions, illustrations and specifications
provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all
instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire
and/or serious injury.
SAVE 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.
1) Work Area Safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or
dark areas invite accidents.
b) 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.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to
lose control.
2) Electrical Safety
a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never
modify the plug in any way. Do not use any
adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power
tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will
reduce risk of electric shock.
b) 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.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase
the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase
the risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a
cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric
shock.
EN - T12/T14
-10-
f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is
unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD)
protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of
electric shock.
3) Personal Safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power tool. 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.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always
wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as
dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the
switch is in the off-position before connecting to
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 have the
switch on invites accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before
turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in
personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. This enables better control of the
power tool in unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair and clothing away from
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can
be caught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of
dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure
these are connected and properly used. Use of dust
collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
h) Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use
of tools allow you to become complacent and
ignore tool safety principles. A careless action can
cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.
4) Power Tool Use and Care
a) 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.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does
not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the powersource and/
or the battery pack, if detachable, from the power
tool before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power
tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the 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.
e) Maintain power tools and accessories. 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.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool 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.
h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean
and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and
grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and
control of the tool in unexpected situations.
5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool
is maintained.
Safety Instructions for Routers
a) Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces only, because the cutter may contact
its own cord. Cutting a “live” wire may make exposed
metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the
operator an electrical shock.
b) Use clamps or another practical way to secure
and support the workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the work by your hand or against the body
leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.
c) Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and
grease. This will enable better control of the tool.
d) Maintain a firm grip with both hands on the tool
to resist starting torque. Maintain a firm grip on the
tool at all times while operating.
e) Keep hands away from cutting area above and
below the base. Never reach under the workpiece
for any reason. Keep the router base firmly in contact
with the workpiece when cutting.
EN - T12/T14
-11-
f) Never touch the bit immediately after use. It
may be extremely hot.
g) Be sure that the motor has stopped completely
before you lay the router down. If the bit is still
spinning when the tool is laid down, it could cause injury
or damage.
h) Be sure that the router bit is clear of the
workpiece before starting the motor. If the bit is
in contact with the workpiece when the motor starts, it
could make the router jump, causing damage or injury.
i) The permitted speed of the cutting bit must be
at least equal to the maximum speed marked on
the power tool. If cutting bits run faster than their rated
speed, they may break and fly off.
j) Always follow the bit manufacturer’s speed
recommendations as some bit designs require
specific speeds for safety or performance. If you
are unsure of the proper speed or are experiencing any
type of problem, contact the bit manufacturer.
k) Do not use cutters larger than 50 mm (2”)
unless the router is fitted in a router table.
Do not use cutters larger than 86 mm (3 3/8”) in
this tool.
RESIDUAL RISKS
WARNING: We recommend the
use of a residual current device with
a residual current rating of 30mA or
less.
In spite of the application of the relevant safety
regulations and the implementation of safety devices,
certain residual risks cannot be avoided. These are:
• Impairment of hearing.
• Risk of personal injury due to flying particles.
• Risk of burns due to accessories becoming hot during
operation.
• Risk of personal injury due to prolonged use.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION: Never tighten the collet without
first installing a router bit in it. Tightening an empty collet,
even by hand, can damage the collet.
A collet is included with this router.
• 12 mm: Europe
• 1/2”: UK & Eire
1. To change collets (35), unscrew the collet assembly
(9)
2. Sharply pull the old collet out of the collet nut (45) and
insert the new collet (35).
3. Push firmly so that the new collet snaps past the
retainer spring in the collet nut.
Multiple Position Turret Stop - (Fig. E)
WARNING: Do not change the turret stop
while the router is running. This will place your hands too
near the cutter head.
The turret stop (11) limits the downward distance that
the tool can be plunged. It consists of three screws of
EN - T12/T14
-13-
different lengths that serve to define the depth of cut by
limiting the travel of the depth stop bar (12).
1. Routing depth can be set by selecting the screw of the
appropriate length on the turret.
2. The turret is rotatable with detent stops to properly
align the screws.
3. It is the interaction of the depth stop bar and the turret
stop that determine the routing depth.
4. If none of the provided screws seems close to the
desired height each can be adjusted by loosening the
hex nut at the bottom and then turning the screw either
in or out to make it the proper length. After adjusting this
screw be sure to tighten the hex nut at the bottom with
the an 8 mm wrench (55).
5. Refer to section Setting the Routing Depth for
instructions on how to use the turret stop in an actual
operation.
Height Stop Rod and Height Stop
Thumb Wheel - (Fig. G & Ga)
T12 Height Stop Rod and Height Stop Thumb Wheel
(Fig. G)
The height stop rod (5) and thumb wheel (4) limit how
high the unit can travel up the rails. The system is
adjustable to limit the rise of the plunge regardless of
the position of the plunge release lever to full up where
the bottom of the collet is 80 mm (3 5/32”) above the
workpiece.
NOTE: It is easier to move the height stop thumb wheel
UP if the plunge release lever is locked and easier to
move the thumb wheel down if the unit is first moved
down by releasing the plunge release lever and then
tightening it.

Using the Router - (Fig. A, L)
CAUTION: Turn the router on before plunging
the cutter head into the workpiece.
CAUTION:
• Excessive cutting may cause overload of the motor or
difficulty in controlling the tool, the depth of cut should
not be more than 15 mm (19/32”) at a pass when
cutting grooves with a 8 mm (5/16”) diameter bit.
• When cutting grooves with a 20 mm (25/32”) diamter
bit, the depth of cut should not be more than 5 mm
(3/16”) at a pass.
• For extra deep grooving, make two or three passes
with progressively deeper bit settings.
CAUTION: After long periods of working at
low speeds, allow the machine to cool down by running
it for three minutes at maximum speed, with no load.
All common routing tasks can be performed with the
plunge cut router on all types of wood and plastic:
• Grooving
• Rebating
• Recessing
• Veining
• Profiling
To prevent overload of the tool by using the wrong speed
selection, follow the recommended settings below:
MATERIAL CUTTER DIAMETER
10 – 30 mm 30 – 50 mm 50 – 86* mm
SPEED SELECTION
Hardwood 7 - 5 6 - 2 5 - 2
Softwood 7 - 6 7 - 5 5 - 2
Chipboard
Faced
7 - 6 7 - 4 n / a
Plastic 7 - 5 7 - 4 n / a
* Do not use cutters larger than 50 mm (2”) unless the
router is fitted in a router table.
NOTE: Only carbide tipped cutters should be used on
panels faced with plastic laminates. The hard laminates
will quickly dull steel cutters.
EN - T12/T14
-16-
NOTE: For better plunge sliding movement, frequently
clean the columns of dust or debris. If the plunging
movement is not moving as smooth as desired, lubricate
the columns with a dry Teflon lubricant.
1. After setting the cutting depth as described, locate the
router such that the bit is directly over the place you will
be cutting.
2. With the router running, lower the unit smoothly down
into the workpiece. DO NOT JAM THE ROUTER
DOWN.
3. When the tool reaches the pre set depth, push the
quick release button (7) to lock.
4. When you have finished routing, push the plunge
lock lever (6) to unlock and let the spring lift the router
directly out of the workpiece.
5. Always feed the router opposite to the direction in

immediately. Please contact Trend Tool Technology Ltd
or authorized service facility for repair.
NOTICE: The router is equipped with electronics to
monitor and maintain the speed of the tool while cutting.
In low and medium speed operation, the speed control
prevents the motor speed from decreasing. If you expect
to hear a speed change and continue to load the motor,
you could damage the motor by overheating. Reduce
the depth of cut and/or slow the feed rate to prevent tool
damage.
Refer to the Speed Selection Chart to choose a router
speed. Turn the speed dial (1) to control router speed.
The speed is variable from 9000 to 22000 rpm using the
speed dial (1).
1. Turn the speed dial to the required position. The dial is
numbered from 1 –7 and corresponds to router speeds
of 9000 rpm to 22000 rpm.
2. Use the slower settings for large diameter cutters and
the faster settings for small diameter cutters.
3. The correct setting will also depend on the density of
the material, depth of cut and feed speed of the router.
NOTE: A noticeable loss of motor rpm means motor
overload
SPEED SELECTION CHART
DIAL SETTING APPROXIMATE RPM
1 9000
2 11000
3 13000
4 15000
5 18000

The plunge is fully automatically locking for all cuts. For
heavy cut operations, ensure to push the lever towards
the tool body. The plunge lock lever (6) position is set at
EN - T12/T14
-17-
the factory so the lever does not touch the motor body,
if the plunge lock lever begins to hit the body when the
quick release lever is pushed, readjust the locking lever
position as follows:
1. Push in quick release button (7). The plunge lever lock
will unlock automatically.
2. Using a Torx 20 star bit (39), loosen the shoulder
screw (54) on the plunge lock lever (6) with six
counterclockwise turns. Do not fully remove.
3. Lift the plunge lock lever, rotate and reposition the
plunge lock lever at position 2 (at eleven o’clock).
4. Tighten the shoulder screw.
5. If after setting to position 2 sliding is not correct,
repeat steps 1 to 3 and reposition the lock lever at
position 1. Tighten the shoulder screw.
Moulding Natural Timbers
WARNING: When routing always lock the
plunge locking lever.
When edge moulding natural timbers, always mould the
end grain first, followed by the long grain. This ensures
that if there is breakout, it will be removed when the long
grain is routed.
Setting the Routing Depth - (Fig. D, E)
1. Place the router with cutter fitted on to the workpiece.
2. Set the multiple position turret stop (11) as required.
3. Loosen the knob quick adjustment (15) securing the
depth stop (12).
4. Push down the plunging lock lever (6) to start
plunging.
5. Lower the router slowly until the cutter touches the
workpiece and secure it in place by pushing quick
release button (7).
6. Rotate the quick height adjuster (16) until the depth
stop bar (12) touches multiple turret stop (13) . Secure
in position by tightening the quick height adjuster lock
(15).
7. If the depth of cut needs re adjustment, it is
recommended to use quick depth adjuster (16) for gross
settings, or the fine height adjuster for accurate settings.
8. Adjust the depth of cut using the fine height adjuster
(18)
NOTE: : One turn of the fine height adjuster (18)
corresponds to 1 mm (3/64”), one turn of the quick
height adjuster (15) corresponds to 40 mm (1 1/2”)
9. Read the depth of cut using the quick zero reset ring
(14) and fine zero reset ring (19).
10. The distance between the top of the revolving depth
stop and the bottom of the depth stop is the required
depth of cut.
11. The rotating turret stop screws (11) can be used
for setting up to three depths of cut. The height can
be adjusted using a flat screwdriver and a 8mm (5/16”)
wrench.
NOTE: By rotating the turret stop, three depth settings
can be quickly made.
Fine Height Adjuster - (Fig. D)
This router has a built in fine height adjuster. This should
be used when fine height adjustment of the cutter is
required. This is especially recommended when using
dovetail jigs or router tables.
Direction Of Feed - (Fig. L)
WARNING: Avoid climb-cutting (cutting in
direction opposite than shown in Fig. L). Climb-cutting
increases the chance for loss of control resulting in
possible injury. When climb-cutting is required (backing
around a corner), exercise extreme caution to maintain
control of router. Make smaller cuts and remove minimal
material with each pass.
The direction of feed is very important when routing and
can make the difference between a successful job and
a ruined project. Fig. L show proper direction of feed for
most cuts.
1. When routing along an edge, the direction of the
router travel should be against that of the rotation of
the cutter. This will create the correct cutting action
and prevent the cutter from snatching. It will also pull
the router towards the workpiece and the side fence or
guide bearing will be less likely to wander from the edge
of the workpiece.
Feed Speed
The speed at which the cutter is fed into the wood must
not be too fast that the motor slows down, or too slow
that the cutter leaves burn marks on the face of the
wood.
NOTE: Practice judging the speed by listening to the
sound of the motor when routing.
Sequence of Plunging
WARNING: When routing always lock the
plunge locking lever.
1. Plunge down and lock the motor carriage, by pushing
quick release button (7).
2. Perform the desired routing operation.
3. Push down the plunge lock lever (6) and the motor
carriage returns to the normal position.
EN - T12/T14
-18-
Using a Side Fence - (Fig. M)
CAUTION: Ensure working position is
comfortable and at a suitable working height.
1. Ensure the wing bolts (28) are fully released. Slide the
guide rods (26) into the routing base (10) and tighten
the wing bolts.
2. Adjust the fence fine adjustment knob (29) to the
required distance and clamp in place with the wing bolts
(28).
3. Then lower the cutter height until the cutter is just
above the workpiece.
4. Fine adjustments are possible by loosening the wing
bolt (28) and adjusting the side fence fine adjustment
knob (29).
5. Tighten the wing bolt (28) to secure the position.
NOTE: One revolution of the side fence fine adjustment
knob (29) equals 3/64” (1.0 mm) of side feed.
6. Lower the cutter onto the workpiece and set the cutter
height by to the required distance. Refer to Setting the
Router Depth.
7. Switch the router on and after the cutter reaches full
speed, gently lower the cutter into the workpiece and
lock the plunge.
8. Feed along the workpiece, keeping sideways pressure
to ensure the side fence does not wander away from the
workpiece edge and downward pressure on the inside
hand to prevent the router from tipping.
9. When finished, raise the router, secure with the plunge
locking lever (6) and switch the router off.
NOTE: When starting the cut, keep the pressure on the
front cheek until the back cheek contacts the workpiece
edge.
NOTE: At the end of the cut, keep pressure on the
back cheek until the cut is finished. This will prevent the
router cutter swinging in at the end of the workpiece and
nipping the corner.
Side Fence Routing - (Fig. I, J)
The side fence is used to guide the router when
moulding, edge profiling or rebating the edge of a
workpiece or when routing grooves and slots in the
center of the workpiece, parallel to the edge.
The edge of the workpiece must be straight and true.
The strips (31) are adjustable and should be set ideally
with a 1/8” (3 mm) gap each side of the cutter.
Guiding Off a Batten
Where an edge guide cannot be used, it is also possible
to guide the router along a batten clamped across the
workpiece (with an overhang at both ends).
Freehand Routing
WARNING: Make shallow cuts only! Use
cutters with a max. diameter of 12mm.
Your router can also be used without any sort of guide,
e.g. for signwriting or creative work.
