SAFETY

Always unplug your router motor

before making any adjustments

to the router lift.

Refer to your router’s owner’s

manual for specific safe

operation instructions.

INSTALLING A PC-7518 ROUTER MOTOR

Set the lift face down in the opening of your router table.
Alternatively, you can set it on two spacers at least 1” thick.

Make sure the lift carriage is set as close to the plate as
possible (approximately 2-1/4”). If the carriage requires
coarse adjustment, jump ahead to the section on using the
Lift Wrench on page 3, then return here once the carriage
has been moved up against the gear box.

Ensure the four (4) clamp screws are loose enough to allow for the motor to be inserted. Next,
carefully insert the motor until the motor contacts the plate. Rotate the motor so that the cord and
speed adjustment are clear of the posts. Make sure no part of the router interferes with the lift.
Make sure that none of the motor pins are being clamped by the pads.

Now tighten the clamp screws. Only three are accessible at this point. Flip the lift right side up
and set it into the table opening. Use the lift wrench to lower the carriage a couple of inches. Now
tighten the fourth screw.

SETTING THE FINE ADJUSTMENT
LIFT ROD

The thumb wheel allows for a total of 3/4” of fine

adjustment. It’s helpful to start out in the middle of

this range. Take a look at the lift rod. You’ll notice

three grooves spaced 3/8” apart. The three grooves

represent the beginning, middle, and end of travel.

Use the thumb wheel to adjust the lift rod to the

middle groove which is the middle of the adjust-

ment range. It may be necessary to adjust the lift

rod to see all three grooves.

SETTING THE PLATE FLUSH

The (10) threaded holes around the perimeter of the

plate are for access to the leveling screws mounted

into your INCRA Router Table. Insert the supplied

5/32” hex key through these holes to adjust. If you

have purchased the PRL-V2 for use in other (non-

Incra) router tables, insert the included set screws

into the threaded holes for leveling.

LOCKING THE PRL-V2 IN YOUR
TABLE RECESS

Lift the PRL-V2 from your router table recess and

thread the included socket head cam screw into

the hole located at the corner of the plate. Thread

the fastener in until the top of the screw is just

below the top of the plate. Carefully lower the

PRL-V2 back into the router table, making sure the

cam screw is rotated to clear the opening in your

table top. Turn the fastener clockwise to lock the

PRL-V2 in your table.
