MOUNTING TEMPLATE GUIDES

WARNING! Disconnect tool from power source.
For template routing, the Freud FT1700 accepts
standard template guides which are available
separately. To use template guides an optional adapter
ring (Freud FT1100) must be attached to the base
plate using the two slotted screws provided. Remove
the slotted screws from the base plate, insert the
adapter ring with the flat side toward the router body.
Install and tighten the screws to secure the adapter
ring. - Fig. 5
The base plate (L) has been centered at the factory,
however, if the base plate has been removed and
remounted some adjustment may be necessary to
center the template guides to the router bit. To adjust,
loosen the four base plate screws that secure the base
plate to the router, reposition the base plate and
tighten the screws.
