11. Use drill press or hand-held drill with guide
to drill holes through mounting plate (see
Figure 28 for example).
Note: Use drill bit slightly larger in diameter
than fasteners used to secure base plate to
router.
12. Turn mounting plate top-side-up and drill
countersinks on top surface of mounting
plate, using drill holes as guides for coun-
tersinks (see Figure 28 for example). This
allows fasteners to sit slightly below top
surface of mounting plate and prevents a
workpiece from catching on fasteners during
routing operations.

13. Place router (with base plate removed)
underneath mounting plate and align holes in
mounting plate with threaded holes in router
base.
If router unexpectedly moves or router
bit contacts plate insert or fence board
during operation, serious personal injury
could result from the router bit or flying
debris. ALWAYS make sure router is firmly
secured to mounting plate before beginning
operation.

14. Use fasteners removed in Step 7 to secure
router to mounting plate, as shown in
Figure 29.
Note: The original fasteners may not be long
enough to properly secure mounting plate
to router. In that case, use longer fasteners
purchased from your local hardware store.
