Router Installation
The phenolic router mounting board included
with the router table is designed to attach to the
bottom of your router in the same manner as the
router base.
To complete this installation, you will need a drill,
drill bit(s), and fasteners. We recommend using
the router base as a template for the hole pattern
to be drilled in the mounting board.
Important: When deciding how to orient the
router in relation to the router table, take into
account access to the router controls, such as
depth adjustment knobs, lock levers/knobs, and
the power switch.
To install your router onto the mounting
board:
1. DISCONNECT ROUTER FROM POWER!
2. Insert the mounting board into the router
table so that the starting pin holes are to the
right of the opening, as shown in Figure 10.
Figure 11. Example of using the router base as
a template to drill mounting holes.

3. Mark the front of the mounting board with
tape or other removable substance.
4. Turn the router upside down and position it
so that it is facing you in the same orientation
that it will face the front of the router table.
5. Make marks on the base and the router to
guide you when mounting the router so that
it will correctly face the front of the router
table.
6. Remove the router base from the router.
7. Turn the router table mounting board upside
down, center the router base on the board
so that the marks locating the front of each
match.
8. Use the mounting holes in the router base as
a template to mark the holes for drilling the
holes in the mounting board (see Figure 11
for an example).
Note: There are multiple circles in the under-
neath surface of the mounting board to aid in
centering the router base as a template.
If the router unexpectedly moves or the rout-
er bit contacts the table insert or fence dur-
ing operation, serious personal injury could
result from the router bit or flying debris.
ALWAYS make sure that the router is firmly
secured to the router table mounting board
before beginning operation.
9. Remove the router base from the mount-
ing board, drill the correct size holes in the
mounting board for the fasteners.

holes.
