e. Always unplug your power tool when leaving
it unattended. Such preventative safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally by untrained users.
f. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts
and any other condition that may affect the
operation of the power tool. If damaged, have
the power tool repaired before use. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained
power tools.
g. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to bind and are easier to
control.
h. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits,
in accordance with these instructions and in
the manner intended for the particular type of
power tool, taking into account the working
conditions and the work to be performed. Use
of the power tool for operations different from
those intended could result in a hazardous
situation.
5. Service
a. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the
power tool is maintained.
General Safety Instructions / Template Guide Bushes
TEMPLATE GUIDE BUSHES
For template routing, using guide bushes on
the Triton Router, the guide plate will first need
to be fitted. There is a guide plate to suit both
model Triton Routers - use the one specific to
your model router.
1. With the router upside down, remove the black
base via the 4 Phillips-headed screws.
MOF001 Models:
Fit the Guide Plate (L) to the underside of
the black base and position it so that the key
notches in the plate locate onto the tabs in the
base.
TRB001 Models:
Position the Guide Plate (F) onto the router
base with all the holes in the plate aligned
with those in the router base.
2. Refit the base onto the router using the
Phillips-headed screws. Do not tighten yet.
3. Loosely fit the two M4 Screws (H) into the
holes in the depressed side of the adaptor
plate, leaving a 3mm gap under each head. Sit
the Alignment Bush (O) recessed side up, into
the centre of the plate with the two notches
positioned over the screw heads. Rotate the
bush until the notches no longer align with the
screw heads, then tighten the screws.
4. Plunge the router to the collet lock position,
manoeuvring the black base so that the collet
locates through the hole in the alignment
bush. Tighten the 4 screws securing the black
base in position. Do not overtighten as this
can distort the plastic base.
5. Fit a router bit into the collet and plunge the
router until the bit is hidden. remove the
Alignment Bush and fit a Guide Bush (G, I, J,
K, M, N & P) with its collar side up. Rotate
the bit by hand to ensure there is complete
clearance between the bit and the guide bush.
If using a Porter Cable Guide Bush, fit
it to the Alignment Bush first, with the
guide bush fitting into the recessed side of the
Alignment Bush. Then fit this assembly to the
Guide Plate.
• Even when not using the template guides the
guide plate can remain fitted to the router
for the majority of cuts whether hand-held
or table-mounted. If using cutters with a
diameter larger than 50mm the guide plate
will need to be removed.
• Regularly check that the M4 Screws (H) are
tightened firmly. You may consider removing
the screws and sorting them in the box when
not using a guide bush.
