Additional tools requir ed to mount your router to
the Rout-R-Lift:
Cross-point (P hillips) screwdriver
Tools required for adjus tment:
7/16" Open End Wrench
Mounting Your Router to the Rout-R-Lift
1. Turn your Rout-R-Lift upside down on the
table. With the 5/32 hex wrench supplied,
remove the four 1/4-20 x 1 flat head cap
screws (Figur e 1) and remov e the aluminum
carriage plate. (NOTE: If the screws are
blocked, crank the Rout-R-Lift with the
adjustment handle until all four screws are
exposed.)
2. Remove the master ring from the carriage
plate, by f irst removing t he six 1/4-20 x 3/4
flat head machine screws that secure the
clamping brack ets to the aluminum carri age
plate (Fig. 2).
3. Remove the sub-base and screws that
attach the sub-ba se to yo ur rout er. NOT E: If
your sub-base cannot be removed, just
remove the screws that will be used to
attach your r outer to the master ring.
4. Lay the master ring on a flat surface with the
countersunk holes and t he engraving f acing
upwards and with t he engraved "T" to the
top and the engraved " B" to the bot tom.

5. Pages 14-15 show a series of drawings of
the master r ing with the holes shaded sol id
to match many differ ent routers. Locat e y our
router and then locate the proper holes in
the master r ing usi ng the dra wing a s an ai d.
With a f elt tip marker or pencil, mark a l ine
on the master r ing for each hole that you will
be using for your router.
6. With the holes marked on the master ring,
place the master ring on the base of your
router and rotate it to line up the correct
holes in your router. Don't worry about
handle locati on at this point as that can be
set when the master ring is re-attached to
the aluminum carriage plate.
7. The master ring is 1/4" thick and may
prevent your screws that come with your
router from engaging your r outer sufficiently.
If this is the case, source longer flat head
screws from your local hardware or
automotive parts supplier. With the screws
you removed from your r outer (or the longer
screws which you acquired) attach the
master ring to your router (Fig. 3). Lightly
secure the screws at fi rst to ensure that t he
master ring will locate in the c enter of your
router, and t hen tighten securely.
8. You must now re-attach the m aster ring to
the aluminum carriage plate. With the
carriage plate upside down in front of you,
slide the master ring with router attached
into place to engage the recess of the
carriage plate (Fig. 4).
At this point , take note of the handle location
and on/off switch to ensure they are in the
best location for use. You can rotate the
router at this point to have it in the best
possible l oc ation for use. Once satisfied with
the router location, place one of the
clamping brackets into the correct location
and feed one of the 1/4-20 x 3/ 4" flat head
screws from under the aluminum carriage
plate and thread i nto the clamping br acket.
Repeat this step f or the other five clampi ng
brackets.
9. Once the brackets are in place, securely
tighten the six 1/4-20 x 3/4" screws.
