Line 78:
#Rotate the spindle (careful not to cut yourself on the bit) to engage the spindle lock
#Remove the green circle
#Use the spanner to loosen and remove the router head and collet (5) you have to untighten twice to undo [[File:RouterTop.png|center|thumb|200px|]]
#Check that the collet in the router head is suitably sized for the new bit and change if needed. Be especially careful not to confuse 1/4"(6.35mm) with 6mm collets, or 1/2"(12.7mm) with 12mm collets.
#Insert the new router bit into the collet (5) with a small gap from the painted section make sure it's not too far out as this will make it unstable, then use the spanner to tighten the collet (5) so that it holds the bit firmly [[File:RouterBitPlacement.jpg|center|thumb]]
#Disengage the plunge lock lever (7). and lower the spindle a bit, this will release the collet lock and the retracting switch cover (3)
#Check once again that power is off and turn on switch(3) which is on the router
