General safety precautions

Note: To reduce the risk of injury, fire, and related

accidents, follow these IMPORTANT safety tips.

1. Keep work area clear.

2. Do not use electric power tools in wet or very

damp locations, near flammable materials, or

combustible gasses.

3. Keep children away from the work area when

using electric power tools.

4. When not in use, electric power tools should

be stored in a dry location and locked away to

avoid accidental or unqualified use.

5. Do not over-work power tools. Stay within the

limits of the workload capacity of each tool.

6. Do not operate power tools while wearing

loose clothing. Wear proper work clothes,

shoes, headgear, and gloves.

7. Wear safety glasses at all times and a face

mask to avoid inhalation of fine dust.

8. Properly maintain the mains power cable.

Inspect for fraying or loose insulation or

damaged plugs. Do not pull the mains cable

out of the socket by pulling on the cable. Keep

cord away from caustic chemicals, high

temperatures, and sharp objects. Do not carry

the tool by the mains power cable.

9. Ensure that all work pieces are properly

anchored or clamped down before using

electric power tools.

10. Adopt a comfortable working position when

operating power tools to avoid slipping.

11. Inspect router bits before each use. Do not

use bits that are dull or that have damaged

cutting edges. Unplug tool before installing or

changing router bits. Unplug tool when not in

use.

12. Inspect tools before using for loose guides, or

other parts. Tighten where necessary.

13. Remember to remove adjustment tools and

wrenches before using.

14. Unplug tool before performing regular

maintenance and cleaning.

15. Keep your mind on the job at hand and stay

alert. Never operate power tools while tired or

under the influence of alcohol, drugs or

medication.

Specific Safety Precautions

Note: To reduce the risk of injury, fire, and related

accidents, follows these IMPORTANT safety tips

1. Router bits are very sharp. Use gloves when

inserting and removing bits.

2. Examine each router bit carefully before

using. Replace cracked, damaged, or dull bits,

and dispose of them safely.

3. Check over the work piece to ensure it is free

from nails or screws. The router bit rotates at

22,000 rpm and can shatter if it encounters

foreign particles, which can cause serious

injury.

4. Hold the router tightly with both hands when

in use.

5. Keep hands and clothes away from rotating

components.

6. Be careful to keep the router bit clear of any

objects or work pieces before starting the

router. Ensure that the router is up to speed

before engaging the work piece. If the router

bit shows signs of ‘wobbling’, carefully re-

insert it before using.

7. Check for correct feed direction (see diagram)

8. The Lucas Plunge Router is equipped with a

safety switch button on the right handle. To

operate, depress the safety switch then pull

back on the trigger. To turn off, simply release

the trigger.

9. During use, the router bit can become very

hot. Use care and allow a few minutes for it to

cool down before removing or changing the

bits.

Using your Lucas Plunge Router

Before attempting to insert or remove a router bit,

unplug the tool from the wall socket.

1/2” shaft router bit: (see Fig. 1)

Insert the router bit into the cone-shaped collet

chuck as deep as possible, then pull it out slightly

(about 1/16”). Depress the shaft lock button to

lock the shaft while you tighten the collet chuck

with the wrench (included).

1/4” and 3/8” router bit

For router bits with a 1/4” or 3/8” shaft, first insert

the corresponding collet adapter (included).

Then insert the bit into the adapter. Depress the

shaft lock button to lock the shaft while you

tighten the collet chuck with the wrench

(included).

Reverse the above procedure to remove the bits

Setting the plunge depth

1. Install the desired plunge bit

2. Unlock (lift) the router height locking lever

next to the right handle

3. Raise the motor housing by slacking off the

large upper limit setting knob (Fig. 3) to a

height that allows the base of the bit to be

just slightly higher than the base of the router.

4. Place the router on a solid, flat surface.

5. Lower the router until the tip of the router bit

is in contact with a flat surface, and then lock

down the router height-locking lever.

6. Lower the brake knob screw until it presses

firmly against the shortest of the three stop

settings (note: press the brass brake knob

release button to allow it to turn more freely).

7. Note: the brake knob screw aligns with the

measurement gauge on the side of the

housing.

8. Use the measurement gauge to raise the

brake knob a distance equal to the total depth

desired. (Note: the total plunge depth must not

exceed the length of the cutting edge of the

router bit.)

Safety note

On any one pass, the maximum plunge depth must

not exceed 9/16” or 15mm. The 3-tier safety stop

assembly is preset to keep each plunge depth

within the maximum. If the desired plunge depth is

greater than 9/16” or 15mm, simply rotate the stop

setting until the tallest stop is aligned just beneath

the base of the brake knob screw.
