Introduction to Switch

Assembly & Operation

1. Make sure the switch and your router are disconnected

from any electrical outlets or extension cords.

2. Locate the two (2) 10-32x1/2” Pan Head Screws and

two (2) 10-32 Hex Nuts.

NOTE:

Some routers feature a special “LOCK-ON” type

feature which will not permit the router to be activated by the

switch. Y

ou may bypass this feature if your router manual

allows it. If not, you will still be able to “SHUT OFF” the

router with the switch.

3. Position the Router Switch behind the

Router T

able’s steel stand

(as shown in Fig. A

& B)

and insert the two screws

from the front side. Secure the screws

in place by threading on the two hex

nuts and tightening down.

4. If your router is attached to your

router table, remove the bit and lower the collet assembly

below the table-top.

5. Plug your router into one of the outlets on the back side of

the switch and coil the excess cord, securing it together so it

does not hang loose from the table. Do allow some slack

however, so that the cord does not stretch.

6. If desired, you may also plug in an additional accessory

(such as a vacuum) to the second outlet on the back side of

the

switch.

7. Ensure that the switch is turned to

the “off position”

(as shown in Fig. C).

15. The router switch is designed for quick “turn-of

f”. To

do so,

use either your hand or your knee to depress the switch

again into the “OFF Position”.

16. When the router table is not in use, toggle the switch to the

“OFF Position” and remove the Key-Lok™. Store the

Key-Lok™ in a secure location where it is not available to

children and unplug the power cord from the wall.

(as shown in Fig. C).

8. Run the switch’

s power cord to your outlet or extension

cord, being careful to coil and secure any excess length

where possible. Do NOT plug it in. (Make sure the outlet

you will be using has a three-prong setup which was

professionally installed and has all proper grounding

and

insulation)

9. Make sure that the extension cord is not plugged into an

electrical

outlet.

10. Insert the Key-Lok™ fully until it ‘snaps’

into place. The

switch should be in the “OFF Position.”

11.

Make sure that your router is set to the “OFF Position” as well.

12. Plug the power cord into the 3-prong wall outlet or

extension

cord.

13. T

oggle your router to the “ON Position”. The router should

not engage since the switch is still set to the “OFF Position.”

14. V

erify that there are no foreign objects near the router

opening and that the router is fully secured and prepared to

run. If it is, you may test the switch by pulling the router

switch into the “ON Position.”

2-Plug Design allows for

router to be paired with

vacuum system and engaged

simultaneously with router. Use

only 3-prong plugs with proper

grounding and insulation.

Easily removable Key-Lok™

prevents switch from

unintentionally engaging.

Always remove Key-Lok™

when machine is not in use for

an extended period of time.
