When the end of the depth
adjustment range is reached
the micro winder will offer
greater resistance and will
begin to ‘click’.
3. Lock the plunge lever,
particularly for heavy cuts.
FITTING AND CHANGING CUTTERS
1. Turn the power switch ‘off’, allowing the retracting
switch shutter to close (the retracting shutter will lock
closed when the collet lock is engaged)
2. Place the router upside down, or on its side. With the
motor completely stopped, plunge the router to its
maximum depth using the free plunge or table height
winder plunge mode.
Ensure the Depth Stop (7) is fully retracted (see ‘Depth
Stop and Turret’). The collet should be protruding
through the base, allowing
easy spanner access.
3. Insert your router bit fully
into the collet then use the
Spanner (22) to turn the
collet slightly, allowing the
collet lock to engage. Once
engaged, turn the spanner
clockwise to tighten the cutter.
4. Return the router to a normal operating depth. This will
disengage the collet lock and release the retracting
switch shutter, enabling
access to the power switch.
VARIABLE SPEED CONTROL
Router speed settings are not critical - generally the
highest speed which does not result in burn marks on the
workpiece should be used. Where stated, always follow
the cutter manufacturers’ maximum speed limitations.
Operating at reduced speed increases the risk of damage
to the router as a result of overload. Use very slow feed
rates and/or multiple shallow cuts.
The Speed Controller (14) is
marked 1 to 5, corresponding
approximately with the speeds
and cutter diameters below.
Turn the dial to select the
required speed.
DUST EXTRACTION
Dust Port
The Triton Router is equipped
with a Dust Extraction Port (17)
for chip extraction above the
cut. It accepts 38mm (1½") O.D.
hose, supplied with the Triton
Dust Collector (DCA300).
The hose screws into position via
a left hand thread (anti-clockwise).
