Mounting holes cut out either round or square
NOTE: All installations require a 1/2" diameter hole drilled through the top of your router table top or insert plate to
accept the #30 dust cover insert shown bottom of page.
Some table tops and steel insert plates do not allow cutting the pocket from the back side. An 8" X 8" black rubber spacer is provided to
cut out and place between the router and the table top or insert plate.
1. Place the rubber spacer onto base of your router with the pre-punched 3/4" hole centered on the #1 mainshaft head.
2. Use a utility knife or raiser blade to cut out the center hole and router mounting holes. Note: Mounting holes can be cut square and
rounding outside of spacer is optional. This method may require slightly longer mounting screws.
