Voltage decrease of more than 10% will cause loss of power and
overheating. All DeWalt tools are factory tested; if this tool does not
operate, check the power supply.
Additional Specific Instructions for
Routers
The electronic motor control system has two basic features.
A. Soft start - when you turn on the router, you will notice that it
does not have the jerk from the rapid acceleration of the motor.
This router has a starting circuit which accelerates the motor up to
speed smoothly, without jerking, and allows you to maintain easier
control of the router during the start up period.
B. Constant speed cutting - as you load the router, the selected
cutting speed does not slow down during normal use. The
electronic control governs the motor and gives you a consistent
finish to your work. Only under very heavy loading will the speed of
the unit fall below the governed speed.
To set the router speed (from 8,000 rpm to 20,000 rpm) rotate the
speed control wheel shown in the large figure on page 2. The
higher the number the higher the speed. Consult TABLE 1 (page 3)
to help select the proper speed for your application.
