SWITCH OPERATION
This section explains the operation and
features of the switch prior to plugging the
power cord into an extension cord. The
intent is to familiarize the user with the
switch operation without actually turning
ON the router.
The switch incorporates two positive features
to prevent inadvertent switching ON of the
router and the unauthorized, and possibly
hazardous, use by others:
There is a transparent cover over the
actual switch to prevent the accidental
switching ON of the router. This cover
allows you to see a small red light on the
switch toggle when the switch is turned
ON. The switch can be turned OFF
quickly by pushing the cover.
• The light is ON when the switch is ON.
• The light is OFF when the switch is OFF.
The safety key must be completely
inserted into the side of the switch case
before the switch can be turned ON.
To operate the switch:
Make sure that the switch power cord is
not plugged into any electrical outlet at
this time. If it is, unplug it.
1. Insert the safety key into the side of the
switch case. See Figure 12 on page 19.
2. To turn the router ON, lift the switch
cover and toggle switch to ON (RESET)
position. See A above.
Gently lower the switch cover. Letting
the switch cover drop closed may cause
the switch to turn OFF.
3. To turn the muter OFF, press the switch
cover. The switch toggle will be in the OFF
position, as shown in B above.
I WARNINGI
NEVER leave the
router unattended while it is running or
before it comes to a complete stop.
4. To lock switch in the OFF position, press
the cover to turn the switch OFF and
remove the safety key completely from
the side of the switch case. The red slide
panel should cover the top half of the
switch, as shown in C above.
With the safety key removed and the red
slide panel covering the top half of the switch
toggle, the switch CANNOT be toggled to the
ON position.
