3.3 Milling cutters

Always unplug the tool from the mains before

changing cutters!

Do not exceed the maximum speed specified on

the tool and/or keep to the speed range. Cracked or distorted

cutters must not be used.

We recommend that milling cutters with diameters over

55 mm should not be used with this machine.

3.2 Clamping collet changing

- Loosen clamping collet until it releases from motor spindle

(fig. 2.1).

- Take locking nut by means of clamping collet from motor

spindle.

- Pull clamping collet out of locking nut. Push new clamping

collet into locking nut until it locks (fig. 2.2).

- Put locking nut into motor spindle by means of clamping

collet. Hand-tighten locking nut a few turns.

fitted!

Machine construction

Always disconnect the plug from the power

supply before making any adjustments to the router or

installing or removing any accessory!

3.1 Electronics

The router OF 2000 E/1 has solid shaft electronics with the

following functions:
Smooth start-up:

The electronically controlled smooth start-up facility enables

start-up of the machine without jerks and requires a lower

start-up current.
Speed regulation:

Using the electronic speed control (1.1) the motor speed can

be continuously adjusted from 12 000 and 22 000 rpm. The

table beside offers a guide to the correct electronic setting

for various materials. The settings are naturally infinitely

variable.
Constant speed:

The selected motor speed is electronically maintained to a

constant level. By this means a uniform cutting speed is

achieved.

Do not work with the OF 2000 E/1 if the

electronic control is defective since this may lead to excessive

speeds. A defect in the electronic control is indicated by the

absence of a smooth run-up, a higher noise level at idle or

the fact that no speed control is possible.
