Mounting Plate Hole for Hex Wrench
Quick-release clamp lever and depth adjustment controls should face the front of the router table
ATTACHING BASE TO MOUNTING PLATE Attach the RA1165 to the router table�s mounting plate using either or both sets of enclosed mounting screws. The base has two sets of threaded holes for mounting the base: � Three 10-24 holes in industry-standard 3-hole pattern. � Four M4 holes in Bosch 4-hole pattern. Included mounting screws for the RA1165: � Three 10-24 x 3/4" screws. � Four M4 x 20 mm screws. If your router table mounting plate does not have countersunk holes in either of those patterns, you will need to determine the hole

locations, drill and countersink them, also locate and drill a hole for the over-table adjustment wrench. Note: Because each of the holes in the Bosch 4-hole pattern goes all the way through the base, it is easier to use it as a template for marking the mounting plate for drilling, than is the 3-hole pattern (which has one hole that does not go all the way through the base). The RA1165 should be positioned so that its quick-release clamp lever and depth adjustment controls face the front of the router table. (Fig. 1) Once the mounting plate has suitable countersunk mounting holes, attach the RA1165 using one or both of the attachment screw sets with a no. 2 Philips screwdriver.
