REMOVING THE FENCE ASSEMBLY
(Fig, 3)
The fence for your router table comes fully
assembled with the adjustable jointing fence
and overhead guard already in place. The fence
assembly is secured to the bottom of the table for
shipment and storage. The handle for the router
release mechanism passes through a square hole
in the base of the fence assembly when it is in its
stored position.
1. Loosen two small star clamping knobs (13)
and fence retaining brackets (12) securing
fence assembly (C) to bottom of router table
(1). Remove fence assembly (C) from the
storage position under the router table (1) and
set it to one side. (See Fig. 3.)
2. Tighten the small star clamping knobs (13)
and fence retaining brackets (12) to secure
the brackets to the bottom of the table (1).
To reinstall the fence assembly for storage:
1. Make sure the two faceplates are positioned
so they are completely together.

2. Position the fence assembly (C) so the square
hole is on the same side as the router release
mechanism (5). Slide the fence under the tool
box so that the square hole fits over the
handle of the router release mechanism
and position the fence assembly flat on the
underside of the table (1).
3. Position the two fence retaining brackets (12)
over the corners of the fence assembly and
tighten the small star clamping knobs (13)
to secure.
NOTE: Shim plates can be stored on outfeed
side of the fence assembly.
REMOVING THE QUICK-CLAMP
ROUTER MOUNTING PLATE FROM
THE BASE PLATE (Fig.4 and Detail 4)
This router table is provided with a quick-clamp
router mounting system. The utilization of this
system requires the installation of a router
mounting plate to the router base. The mounting
plate has predrilled holes in it that will match up
with the mounting holes in most standard touters.
1. Push latch spring away from clamp handle to
release the handle. (See Detail 4.)
2. Push clamp handle away from Quick-Clamp
Base to open the router release mechanism (5).
3. Pull the tab on the router mounting plate (4),
closest to the clamp handle, towards the
handle and down to remove the mounting
plate from the base plate. (See Fig. 4.)
