from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or tangled cords raise the risk of an
electrical shock.
•When operating a tool outdoors, use only extension cords which are usable for the
exterior. The use of an appropriate extension cord reduces the risk of an electrical cord.
•When operating a power tool in a damp or moist location and it is not avoidable, use a
residual current supply. The use of a residual current supply reduces the risk of an electrical
shock.
•If the supply cord of this power tool is damaged, it must be replaced by a specially
prepared cord available through the service organisation.
1.2.3 Personal safety
•Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool.
Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or
medication. A moment of negligence while using the power tool can cause serious injuries.
•Use personal protective equipment and always wear eye protection. Wearing personal
protective equipment, such as dust mask, slip-proof safety shoes, safety helmet or hearing
protection, depending on the type of use of the power tool, reduces the risk of injuries.
•Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is on the off position before connecting
the tool to the power source, picking up or carrying the tool. When you put your finger on
the switch while carrying the power tool or you connect the tool on the on position to the
power source, that can cause accidents.
•Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A tool or wrench
which is adjusted can cause injuries.
•Take care to keep a normal position. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Thus you
can control the power tool better in unexpected situations.
•Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothing or long hair can be caught by the moving parts.
•If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure
these are connected and properly used. The use of a dust extraction can reduce dangers
caused by dust.
1.2.4 Power tool use and care
•Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. You better
work with matching power tool and safer in the indicated power range.
•Do not use a power tool with a damaged switch. A power tool that does not turn on or off,
is dangerous and must be repaired.
•Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove the battery before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. This precaution prevents the
unintentional start of the power tool.
•Store the idle power tools out of reach of children. Do not allow persons unfamiliar with
the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous,
if used by inexperienced persons.
•Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have
the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by badly maintained power
tools.
•Keep the cutting tool sharp and clean. Well maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges jam less and are easier to use.
•Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions.
Take account of the working conditions and the work to be performed. The use of power
tools for other applications than indicated can cause dangerous situations.

1.2.5 Service
•Have the power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only original replacement
parts. This ensures that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
1.3 Safety notices for milling cutters
•WARNING! Milling can result in the formation of dusts hazardous to health (e.g. arising from
materials with paints containing lead, materials containing asbestos or some wood types),
which can pose a risk to the operator or persons nearby. Make sure that the workplace is
well ventilated. Always wear safety goggles, safety gloves and respiratory protection system.
•Hold the power tool on the insulated handle surfaces, as the cutter might hit its own power
cable. The contact with a live cable can also apply power to metallic parts of the tool and
cause an electrical shock.
•Fasten and secure the work piece by means of clamps or with another method on a stable
underground. When holding the work piece with only the hand or against the body, it stays
unstable which can cause the loss of control.
•The permission rotation speed of attachment tools must be at least as highest rotation
speed indicated on the power tool. Attachment tools with a higher rotation as indicated can
be destroyed.
•Cutters and other accessories must be exactly matching the tool holder (collect chuck) of
your power tool. The attachment tools which are not exactly matching to the tool holder of
the power tool, rotate unregularly, vibrate very strongly and can cause a loss of control.
•Ensure that the cutter is assembled correctly. An incorrect assembled cutter can break while
milling or be ejected and be a risk of injury.
•Move the tool against the work piece only when it is turned on. If not there is the risk of a
blowback when the tool is caught in the work piece.
•Do not put your hands in the cutting area and neither on the cutter. Hold the additional
handle or the motor housing with your other hand. Putting both hands on the router, they
cannot be injured by it.
•Never mill over metal objects, nails or screws. The router can be damaged and caused to
stronger vibrations.
•Use suitable detectors in order to find hidden supply lines or ask the local utility company.
Contact to supply lines can cause an electrical shock.
•Do not use any blunt or damaged tools. Blunt or damaged tools can cause uncontrollable
situations.
•Hold the power tool tightly with both hands while working and ensure a secure footing.
The power tool is safer held with both hands.
•Wait to the tool has stopped its movement, before putting it down. The attachment tool
can be caught and cause a loss of control over the power tool.
•Avoid contact with the tool or the work piece immediately after processing. The pieces can
still be hot and cause burn injuries.
1.4 Residual risks
•Even if properly operating and handling this tool, some residual risks will remain. Due to its
construction and build, this tool may present following hazards:
-Injuries caused by moving parts;
-Ear damage if working without ear protection;

5.3 Adjusting the routing depth
•Place the machine on the workpiece.
•Undo the wing screw and fixing handle.
•Slowly move the machine downwards until the cutter makes contact with the workpiece.
•Tighten the fixing handle.
•Set the fine adjuster to 0.
•Adjust the revolver end stop so that the depth stop is above the end stop set to the lowest
height.
•Lower the depth stop until it touches the end stop.
•Then tighten the wing screw.
•Set the pointer to the zero point on the scale.
•Undo the wing screw. Push the depth stop upwards until the pointer points at the required
cutting depth on the scale. Tighten the wing screw again.
•Test the setting by completing a test cut on a waste piece.
•Now you can carry out the final adjustment of the cutting depth. To do this, turn the fine
adjuster to the required dimension.
•Turn the fine adjuster counter-clockwise: greater cutting depth
•Turn the fine adjuster clockwise: lower cutting depth
•Turning the fine adjuster through one division corresponds to a change of cutting depth of
0.04 mm, one whole turn corresponds to 1 mm.
•On the precision adjustment device, you can also turn the lower ring separately. This lets you
reach the zero point without altering the precision adjustment device.
5.4 Routing
•To avoid damage to the router, make sure there are no foreign objects attached to the
workpiece.
•Connect the mains plug to a suitable socket.
•Hold the tool using both of its handles.
•Place the router on the workpiece.
•Set the milling depth accordingly.
•Select the speed and switch the machine on.
•Test the machine settings using a piece of waste.
•Operate the tool at full speed. Only then should you lower the router to its working height
and lock the machine with the locking grip.
-Cutting direction: The cutting tool turns clockwise. To avoid accidents, you must always
cut against the direction in which the tool turns.
-Feed speed: It is very important to machine the workpiece at the correct feed speed. We
recommend that - before you machine the actual workpiece - you carry out several trial

User’s Manual – AREBOS Plunge Router
13
cuts on a waste piece of the same type. This will enable you to find the best working
speed for the workpiece very easily.
-Feed speed too low: The cutter could heat up excessively. If you are cutting inflammable
material such as wood, the workpiece could ignite.
-Feed speed too high: The cutter could be damaged.
-Cutting quality: Rough and uneven. Allow the cutter to come to a complete standstill
before removing the workpiece or putting down the router.
5.5 Routing in stages
•Depending on the hardness of the material you wish to cut and the cutting depth, it may be a
good idea to proceed in stages.
•If you wish to route in several stages, turn the end stop revolver after you have set the
cutting depth so that the depth stop is over the highest end stop.
•Now route in this setting. After completing the first routing operation, adjust the end stop
revolver so that the depth stop is above middle end stop. Now complete a routing operation
in this setting as well.
•Now set the lowest end stop and finish the routing.
5.6 Free-hand routing
•The router can also be operated without any guide rods. You can use it for freehand routing
for creative work such as the production of logos.
•Use a very flat cutter setting for this purpose.
•Check the direction in which the cutter is turning as you machine the workpiece.
5.7 Shape and edge cutting
•Special cutters with a guide ring may be used for cutting shapes and edges.
•Fit the cutter.
•Carefully guide the machine on to the workpiece.
•Guide the guide journal or ball bearing along the workpiece with gentle pressure.
•Warning! For deep cuts, carry out the work in several steps according to the material in
question. Hold the router in two hands when carrying out all cutting work.
