To use router bits safely (and to get the best results from your router), the _x000D_ router bits need to be installed properly into the router's collet. Improper installation _x000D_ of your bits can cause excessive chatter and could increase the likelihood that _x000D_ the bits will break when in use.
_x000D_Clean and sharp
_x000D_First of all, before beginning any routing operation, check your bits to _x000D_ make sure that they are clean, relatively free of pitch, and most of all, sharp. _x000D_ If the bit is dull, chipped, is excessively burned or has any other defect, _x000D_ it should be sharpened or replaced before use.
_x000D__x000D_
Correct _x000D_
collet and collet nut fit
_x000D_
Most router collets have a recess (groove) that needs to click into a circlip _x000D_ that resides inside the collet nut. Failing to ensure that the collet 'clicked' _x000D_ into the collet nut will cause you to struggle to remove the router bit after tightening. _x000D_ This could cause the collet to break or be removed by a technical repair centre.
_x000D__x000D_
_x000D_
Correct _x000D_
fit inside the collet
_x000D_
When installing the bit into the collet, do not tighten the collet with the bit _x000D_ 'seated.' Instead, insert the bit until the shank (bit shaft) reaches _x000D_ the bottom of the collet, then ease it out about 2 mm before tightening the collet._x000D_
_x000D_When the bit is tightened, there should be no less than 2/3 _x000D_ 's of the length of the shank in the collet. If your bit has a shank that is too _x000D_ short, then the bit should be replaced.

Safety gear
_x000D_There are a few other safety measures to keep in mind whenever you use your router. _x000D_ First of all, remember to always wear appropriate safety gear as indicated above.
_x000D_Correct speed setting
_x000D_Second, be sure to set your router to the proper speed for your router bit. _x000D_ Setting your router to an incorrect speed will not only affect the router's performance, _x000D_ but also can cause the bit to break much more easily and even cause bodily harm. _x000D_ The speed at which a router bit turns can be important. The typical router runs _x000D_ at about 22,000 rpm, which is fine for most bits. But as the diameter of the bit _x000D_ increases, you’ll want to slow things down.
_x000D_Also, before beginning any routing operation, be certain that you give the router's _x000D_ motor time to come up to full speed for the chosen setting. Beginning to cut before _x000D_ the bit is at full speed can give less than desired results.
