  To avoid property damage and serious injury, the Rockler 

  Convertible Benchtop Router Table MUST be mounted 

  securely to wooden wall studs or to wooden stretchers 

  spanning wall studs with the included #14 x 2" Pan-Head 

  Screws (14) at all four mounting locations. Do NOT rely 

  on wall anchors. 

 

9.  Attach the Aluminum Fence (4) to the Table with the 

    5/16"-18 x 2" Carriage Bolts (12) and Easy-to-Grip 5-Star 

    Fence Knobs (8).

10.  Attach the Bit Guard (6) to the Fence with 5/16"-18 x 1" 

    T-bolts (13) and Easy-to-Grip 1" Round Knobs (9).

11.  Install the five Socket-Head Set Screws (17) in the shoulder 

    of the table’s router plate opening by threading them from 

    below the table and tightening with the included Hex 

    Wrench (18). You will use them to level the router 

    baseplate (sold separately). The instructions that come 

    with the baseplate will detail the leveling process.

12.  Keep the 5/16"-18 x 1" Flat-Head Screws (15) where you 

    will be able to find them. You will use them to secure the 

    router baseplate to the table. The instructions that come 

    with the baseplate will detail this process.

13.  Keep the Stainless Steel Washers (19) where you will be 

    able to find them. They are included to serve as spacers 

    in case the handles of your router’s fixed base require 

    extra clearance when mounted to the baseplate.

Mounting to a Bench

 1.  For temporary mounting to a bench or worktable, clamp the 

    feet to the work surface. The slots in the feet are large 

    enough to accommodate the heads of typical bar clamps. 

  

Fig. 3. 

 

The studs MUST be 16" apart for you to 

be able to mount the table. (This is standard for wall studs.) 

The mounting holes machined into the outside legs of the 

table are spaced 16" apart.

2.  For more permanent mounting, drive pan-head screws (not 

    included) through the holes in the feet to attach the table 

    to a bench or worktable. 

Fig. 4.

Mounting to a Wall

 1.  At the spot where you want to mount the Convertible 

    Router Table, locate and mark two wooden wall studs 

    spaced 16" apart.

 

2.  Determine the height at which you want the top of the 

    table to be. Make a level mark at this height across both 

    stud locations.
