USE IN ROUTER TABLE

Your router can also be used in a router table. The RA1161 fixed base is designed to allow easy depth adjustment in a table. The RA1162 "D" D-Handle base will not fit in most router tables.

! CAUTION	The RA1166 Plunge Base is
	not recommended for use

in a router table. Damage to plunge router base may occur.

To eliminate the hassle of installing your router’s own base on the router table and later having to convert it back for non-table use, Bosch offers the optional RA1165 Undertable Router Base (Fig. 28). The RA1165 base is designed to be permanently attached your router table, leaving your other router bases ready for non-table use. The motor can be quickly moved from base to base — without any tools!
