USING THE SAFETY SWITCH
The safety switch box is equipped with a simple “on/

To prevent unauthorized use or unintentional start-up,
remove the safety key and store it in a safe place
whenever the router table is not in use.
CONNECTING TO A DUST COLLECTOR
There is a 4” dust outlet on the rear of the dust enclosure
allowing for the connection of a dust collector (not
included).
Be sure to use an appropriate size hose and fittings (not
included) and check that all connections are sealed
tightly to minimize airborne dust.
If you do not already own a dust collection system, con-
sider contacting your General® International distributor

ALWAYS TURN ON THE DUST COLLECTOR BEFORE STAR-
