Place templet guide adapter over the holes in
the center of the sub-base, and align the two

the countersunk holes in sub-base. Fasten

CENTERING THE SUB-BASE OR
TEMPLET GUIDES
Your router features the Bosch “Precision
Centering Design”. Its sub-base is precisely
centered at the factory. This positions the bit at
the center of the sub-base and optional
templet guides.
Precision centering allows you to use the edge
of the subbase or templet guides to closely
follow jigs such as straight guides, templets,
and dovetail fixtures without worrying about bit
walk-off from the intended cut line for any
reason, including the orientation of the router’s
handles relative to the jig.
To quickly re-center the sub-base, attach the
sub-base using the set of flathead screws
(included) and the countersunk screw holes in
the sub-base. (Flathead screws have the
tapered heads.) The flathead screws and
countersunk holes will pull the sub-base into a
position that is very close to centered.
To most precisely re-center the sub-base or
templet guides, attach the sub-base using the
optional Bosch RA1151 Centering Device.
Follow steps 1-8 (Fig. 26 & 27).
1. If a templet guide is to be centered, Install
the templet guide adapter and template
guide (optional attachments) as described
elsewhere in this manual.
2. Position the sub-base so that its pan-head
screw holes are over the matching set of
threaded holes in the base.
3. Insert the pan-head screws through the sub-
base and tighten them until they are snug,
but still allow the sub-base to move.
