Wiring the Router, Drill and counter sink insert

Step 2 - Center the sub-base on the table insert and mark the screw mounting locations on the table insert. Figure 12. To find the center of the table insert, position the sub-base on the table insert so the distance from edge to edge on the right and left side are the same and the distance from edge to edge on the top and bottom are the same.

Figure 12. Marking insert for drilling.

Step 3 - Drill and counter sink the screw holes in the table insert. Fasten the router base to the router table insert using the screws from the router sub-base. Figure 13.

Your existing sub-base mounting screws may be too short to safely secure your router to the table insert. Ensure that your mounting screws are sufficiently long enough to safely hold your router in an inverted position. If necessary, pur- chase longer mounting screws of the same thread size to secure your router to the table insert.

Step 4 - Make sure all router mounting screws are fas- tened securely and slip the router with the router table insert into The Rebel® table.

G. Wiring the Router

If using the optional safety switch, make sure it is in the off position. You can now plug your router into the cord connected to the back of the switch. Turn the router switch on. Refer to the router instruction manu- al. If everything is secure, including router collet and all loose tools and bits are put away, you can now test the optional switch. Plug the 110V plug from The Rebel® switch into the wall outlet. Turn the safety lock switch on and the router should start up.

If using The Rebel® without the optional switch, observe all safety procedures, plug your router power cord into an outlet and switch the router on. Some routers have a simple toggle switch while others have a trigger switch with locking device for hands-free operation. If your router has a spring loaded locking devise, depress the trigger, depress the locking devise and then release the trigger. To turn the router off, sim- ply depress the router switch to release the locking device. Please refer to the instruction manual supplied with your router for more information regarding your particular switch.

Always wear safety glasses and follow all safety procedures. If using an extension cord, it must be rated “Hard Service Grade S” — or better. Conductor size must be 12 AWG, or larger, and the cord must contain a grounding wire and plug pin. Repair or replace the extension cord if damaged.
