ASSEMBLY
PRE-DRILLING HOLES FOR THROUGH
TABLE DEPTH ADJUSTMENT
See Figure 8.
Since each router will have different placements for through
table depth adjustments, pilot holes have been pre-drilled in
the throat plate to assist in through table adjustments. Only
the models listed below in the key are available for use with
the through table depth adjustment feature.
Remove the throat plate.
Determine which router you have and find the pre-drilled
pilot hole that matches your router. (Refer to the key be-
low.)
Using a drill and drill bit, drill a hole through the pilot hole
large enough for the depth adjustment tool (not included
with router table, but may be included with your router)
to pass though so through table depth adjustments can
be made.

NOTE: When attaching insert plate to the router, make
sure the holes in the router base match up with the insert
plate accurately and are not off-center.
