Owner's of the Black & Decker Router Black & Decker Router gave it a score of 0 out of 5. Here's how the scores stacked up:
Keep the router base firmly in contact with the workpiece when cutting. Hold the
router only by the handles. These precautions will reduce the risk of personal injury.
• Use sharp cutters. Dull cutters may cause the router to swerve or stall under pressure.
• Never touch the bit immediately after use. It may be extremely hot.
• Be sure that the motor has stopped completely before you lay the router down. If the
cutter head is still spinning when the tool is laid down, it could cause injury or damage.
• Be sure that the router bit is clear of the workpiece before starting the motor. If the
bit is in contact with the workpiece when the motor starts it could make the router jump,
causing damage or injury.
• Only use router bits with a shank diameter equal to the size of the collet installed in
the tool.
• Only use router bits suitable for the no-load speed of the tool.
• Do not use router bits with a diameter greater than 1-1/8” (27mm). Use of larger than
recommended bits can result in a hazard.
• Not intended to be used with a router table. Do not use the tool in an inverted
position.
• Do not attempt to use the tool in a stationary mode.
• Make sure collet nut is securely tightened to prevent router bit from slipping during
use.
WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and
other construction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth
defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paints,
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products,
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber (CCA).
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To
reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with
approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter
out microscopic particles.
• Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling,
and other construction activities. Wear protective clothing and wash exposed
areas with soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin
may promote absorption of harmful chemicals.
WARNING: Use of this tool can generate and/or disburse dust, which may cause serious
and permanent respiratory or other injury. Always use NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory
protection appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles away from face and body.
CAUTION: Wear appropriate personal hearing protection during use. Under some
conditions and duration of use, noise from this product may contribute to hearing
loss.

Be sure your power supply agrees with nameplate marking. 120 Volts AC only means your
tool will operate on standard 60 Hz household power. Do not operate AC tools on DC. A
rating of 120 volts AC/DC means that your tool will operate on standard 60 Hz AC or DC
power. This information is printed on the nameplate. Lower voltage will cause loss of
power and can result in over-heating. All Black & Decker tools are factory-tested; if this
tool does not operate, check the power supply.
