Attaching the Table

The following instructions only apply to
mounting the ProMAX directly to a cast
iron table saw. The pictures show a Delta
brand table saw, but the ProMAX will fit on
any cast iron table saw with at least 27" of
depth. Tables deeper than 27" will require
shims to fill the space between your fence
rails and the ProMAX.
Note: ProMAX cannot be installed as a left
extension replacement on left tilt "cabinet"
grade table saws because the table saw's
motor protrudes to the left. Nor can
ProMAX be installed as a right extension
replacement on right tilt "cabinet" grade
table saws for the same reason. Mounting
ProMAX to the far right will avoid the
protruding motors, however, ProMAX
must be supported with the two steel rails
4
that also support your T-square style rip
3
fence and legs.
1. Remove the factor y left
extension wing. Fig. 1.
Use the hardware that came with your
ProMAX to install your router table.
Do not use the factory bolts, as they
may not be grade 5 or the proper
length. If the necessary bolt size is not
supplied with this router table you
must purchase your own grade 5 bolts.
In most cases the fence rails support
the factory table extension wings.
When bolted directly to your table
saw, ProMAX requires no support
from the fence rails. Therefore, fence
rails do not need to be fastened
to ProMAX.
2. Determine your saw's bolt pattern.
Craftsman and Ridgid use a four bolt
pattern. Almost all other saws use a
three hole pattern. Fig. 2.
3. Four hole applications:
Most four hole patterns use 5/16
bolts. Use the heavy rectangle washers
for the middle two holes as shown in
Fig. 3. Each bolt receives two 5/16"
flat washers, one lock washer, and
one nut. Late model Ridgid saws use
5/16-18 tapped holes instead of
through holes. If the bolt size is not
5/16-18, you must supply your own.
Use grade 5 bolts.
