3. Rotate the router until the three mounting holes in
the router base line up with three of the holes in
the table top. (It will be helpful if you orient the router
such that you can easily reach the ON/OFF switch
from the front of the table. Sears Craftsman
25182 Router Table Switch Package provides
easy access to ON/OFF button).
4. Insert three #10-32 x 3/8" long flat head machine
screws (provided) throUgh holes in the table top
(See Fig. #3) and tighten securely into the router
base.
SELECTING AND INSTALLING
TABLE INSERTS
With the desired bit in the router, select a table insert
which has a center hole slightly larger than the diameter
of the router bit. Note: For bits larger than approximately
1 3/8" diameter, do not use an insert.
The table inserts were designed to be snapped into the
router table. Slide the large tang under the edge of the
large hole in the router table as shown in Fig. #4. Using
your thumb, press down on the insert until the small tang
snaps into position.

To remove the insert, place the point of a small screw-
driver into the slot (with the small tang) and pry the insert
out of the router table.

ING UNITIZED FENCE TO TABLE,
