7. ASSEMBLE & INSTALL THE CRANK HANDLE

Get the crank handle parts. There are two assemblies,

one has a crank and the other has a bolt. Attach the bolt
assembly to the back of the router plate, at the top. Insert
a 1/2" screw (MT010) thru the two mounting holes in the
bracket and leave them slightly loose for now. See fig. 7.

Install the crank assembly on the back (the side with

the two machined ends) of the crank brace (578D) using
two 1/2" screws (MT010) inserted thru the two mounting
holes in the bracket. Start the screws in the crank brace,
but leave them slightly loose. From the front of the brace
insert a 3/4" screw (5771B) thru the two mounting holes
and start an oval nut (5760B) on the ends of the screws.
See fig. 7. Slide the brace/oval nuts onto the 24" tracks
until the end of the crank assembly lines up with the
bolt. Turn the crank to screw the crank assembly onto the
bolt at least 1". Tighten the screws (5771B) on the crank
brace and the four 1/2" screws (MT010). See fig 7 & 8

8. ATTACH ANGLE-EASE, ROUTER & GUARD

Mount the Angle-Ease assembly to the router plate,

and then mount your router in the Angle-Ease. Follow the
instructions provided with the 1424 to complete this process.
See fig. 8. Insert the thumb screw (5503) through the slot of
the Guard (224) and into the tapped holes in the router plate.

9. MOUNT ZERO-CLEARANCE INSERT

Mount a zero-clearance insert (578M) in the recessed

opening in the table. Use the two 5/8" screws (MF037)
to attach the insert to the threaded holes in the table. An
extra insert is provided and extras may be ordered.

USING THE HORIZONTAL ROUTER TABLE

The crank provides 2-5/8" of fine bit height

adjustment. By loosening the two ratchet handles and
the two crank brace screws, you can move the router
plate/crank assembly up or down for a great range of
coarse adjustment. Make sure the two ratchet handles are
loosened before attempting to turn the crank and make sure
you tighten the handles after all height adjustments.

Clamp or bolt the horizontal table to a workbench

before using. For safety, the bit should always be between
the work and the table. The horizontal table can be used for
mortising, edge routing, vertical panel bits, cutting tenons, etc.

For mortising, we recommend our optional 575

Mortising Table. For additional safety and routing
consistency we recommend our 578HD Hold-All Kit.
