router table with the universal clamping system. Refer to
Hole Pattern Chart on page 15 to determine the correct
hole pattern for your router.
See Figure 17

mine the correct hole pattern for your router.
See Figure 16
1. Remove router base plate from router by removing
screws.
2. Loosen knobs and slide fence so that it clears mounting
holes
3. While holding router upside down, position it under-
neath the table so that the center of the router is within
the center ring of the tabletop.
4. Rotate router until mounting holes in router base line up
with the holes in the tabletop.
5. Insert three machine screws from router base plate
through holes in tabletop and into router mounting
holes. Tighten securely.
6.
Routers with A and AB hole pattern
use the three
countersink screws
(AS)
, to attach the router to the
table top. For Ryobi routers RE600 and RE601 use
three countersink screws
(AT)
.
7. To mount Craftsman routers that use the
E-hole
pattern
to the table top, use three 10 - 32 x 1/2" coun-
tersink screws (not provided).
NOTE:
For ease of use, position the router so the
ON-OFF switch is accessible from the front of the table.
