Router Table for the Craftsman

T.Assembly of Spring Pressure Clamps

The Optional Spring Pressure Clamps can be mounted to the Back Fence. When adjusted to suit the width and thickness of the material, it ensures the material is held down onto the surface to obtain accurate machining of the workpiece.

The Back Fence is pre-drilled to accept both Spring Pressure Clamps.

1.Remove Back Fence from Table Surface

2.Insert Vertical Pillar Bolt through the underside of the Back Fence.

3.Fit washer and screw on the Vertical Pillar. Tighten screw securely to ensure pillar is vertical.

4.Fit knobs to Connector Block and slide it onto

Vertical Pillar.

5.Slide Horizontal Bar through Connector Block.

6.Slide Pressure Strip into the slot in Horizontal Bar aligning the holes. Insert the Retaining Screw ensuring it goes in through the un-threaded side of the hole first.

Before tightening the Vertical Pillar Bolts, ensure that the Vertical Pillar will allow the block to be positioned parallel to the Back Fence with the knob engaging on the flat of the Vertical Pillar.

Adjustment

The Spring Pressure Clamps will require adjusting to suit the height and width of material being routed. The Pressure Strips should provide enough pressure to prevent the material lifting from the Table Surface, but not too much as to create friction which would prevent the material from sliding freely. The block assembly with Horizontal Bar and Pressure Strip can be removed from the Vertical Pillars when not required. The Vertical Pillars can be left in position and will not impede the Tenon Push Block system.
