TEMPLET GUIDES

This plunge base can also be used with the optional Bosch-exclusive quick-change templet guide system, which firmly grips the guides with a spring-loaded ring. Unlike conventional threaded templet guides, there is no threaded ring that can come loose while routing. (Fig. 45)

CENTERING THE SUB-BASE OR

TEMPLET GUIDES

Your PR011 plunge base features the Bosch “Precision Centering Design”. Its subbase is precisely centered at the factory. This positions the bit at the center of the subbase and optional templet guides.

Precision centering allows you to use the edge of the subbase or templet guides to closely follow jigs such as straight guides, templets, and dovetail fixtures without worrying about bit walk-off from the intended cut line for any reason, including the orientation of the router’s handles relative to the jig.

To most precisely re-center the subbase or templet guides, attach the subbase using the optional Bosch RA1151 Centering Device. Follow steps 1-8 (Fig. 47).

INSTALLING TEMPLET GUIDE ADAPTER (Not included, available as accessory)

Place templet guide adapter over the holes in the center of the sub-base, and align the two threaded holes in the bottom of adapter with the countersunk holes in subbase. Fasten adapter with the screws provided. Note that the adapter is reversible, so the release lever may be positioned as desired. (Fig. 46)
