To install the baseplate on the Rockler Convertible Benchtop Router Table, you must first purchase either the Midsize Baseplate (55512) or Compact Baseplate (53910), which are sold separately. Then, follow the step-by-step instructions included with the selected baseplate to mount your router to the baseplate and attach the baseplate to the table.
