no signs of damage.

- Only use tools that meet standard EN 847-1.

All Festool routing tools fulfi l these require-

ments.

- The maximum rotational speed specifi ed on the

tool must not be exceeded and the rotational

speed range must be observed.

- Do not use cracked or deformed router bits.

- Do not clamp tools with an unsuitable shank

diameter in the clamping collet.

- Only guide the electric power tool along the

workpiece when switched on.

- Keep your hands away from the routing area and

the router bit. Hold the additional hand grip or

the motor housing with your other hand.

- Never rout through metal objects, nails or

screws.

- Secure the workpiece.

- Take appropriate protective measures when

performing work that may generate harmful,

combustible or explosive dust. Never process

material containing asbestos.

- Wait until the machine has stopped before set-

ting it down.

- Wear suitable protection such as ear protection,

safety goggles, a dust mask for work which gen-

erates dust, and protective gloves when working

with raw materials and when changing tools.

5.3 Emission levels

Noise levels are measured in accordance with

EN 60745:

Sound pressure level

LPA = 78 dB(A)

Noise level

LWA = 89 dB(A)

Uncertainty

K = 3 dB

CAUTION

The noise produced during work can damage
your hearing.
• Always use ear protection!

Overall vibration levels (vector sum for three

directions) measured in accordance with EN

60745:

Vibration emission level (3-axis)

a

h

= 3,0 m/s

2

Uncertainty

K = 2,0 m/s²

The emission values specifi ed (vibration, noise)

were measured in accordance with the test con-

ditions stipulated in EN 60745 and are intended

for machine comparisons. They are also used for

making preliminary estimates regarding vibra-

tion and noise loads during operation.
The emission values specifi ed refer to the main

applications for which the power tool is used. If

the electric power tool is used for other applica-

tions, with other tools or is not maintained suffi -

ciently prior to operation, however, the vibration

and noise load may be higher when the tool is

used. Take into account any machine idling times

and downtimes to estimate these values more

accurately for a specifi ed time period. This may

signifi cantly reduce the load during the machine

operating period.

Commissioning

WARNING

Risk of accident if the machine is operated us-
ing unauthorised voltages or frequencies.
- The mains voltage and the frequency of the

power source must correspond with the

specifi cations on the machine’s name plate.

- In North America, only Festool machines with

voltage specifi cations of 120 V may be used.

The switch [2-2] is an on/off switch (I = ON, 0 =

OFF). Connecting and detaching the mains power

cable, see Fig. [3].

WARNING

Risk of accident, electric shock
• Always pull the plug out of the socket before

performing any type of work on the ma-

chine.

7.1 Electronics

The machine features full-wave electronics with

the following properties:
Smooth start-up
The electronically controlled smooth start-up

function ensures that the machine starts up

smoothly.
Speed control
You can regulate the rotational speed steplessly

between 10000 and 26000 rpm using the adjusting

wheel [2-1]. This enables you to optimise the

cutting speed to suit the respective material.
Constant speed
The preselected motor speed remains constant

through electronic control. This ensures a uniform

cutting speed even when under strain.
