IMPORTANT NOTICE!
Modification Required for Mounting your Router
the universal phenolic mounting board that is included with the Model t10432 does not have pre-drilled
mounting holes to hold your router. this is because different brand routers have different base mounting
hole configurations.
to properly use this router table, you will have to drill holes in the mounting board that match the base
mounting hole configuration of your router. this procedure will require a drill, the correct size drill bits,
and possibly additional fasteners for mounting the router.
Before beginning any modification to the phenolic mounting board, read the entire SETUp section in this
manual to make sure the person making the modification is capable of performing the required tasks,
and to make sure that your router is firmly secured to the router mounting board.

Additional Safety for Router Tables
AppROpRiATE WORKpiEcES. the danger
of kickback and injury is increased when the
workpiece has knots, holes, or foreign objects in
it. Warped stock should be flattened with a jointer
before you cut it with the router.
AvOiDiNg AMpUTATiON. to avoid making con-
tact with the spinning router bit, never place
hands directly over or in front of the bit. as one
hand approaches the bit, move it away and over
to the other side. always keep hands at least 6"
away from the spinning bit.
TESTiNg ROTATiON. With the router discon-
nected from power, rotate the router spindle to
test any new setup to ensure proper bit clearance
before starting the router.
SEcURiNg LEvERS AND KNOBS. never oper-
ate the router table without first making sure that all
lock levers and knobs are tight, and that all fence
hardware and guide rails are secure. otherwise,
the workpiece can slip out of alignment while cut-
ting and cause injury from kickback.
cUTTiNg SUppORT. nEVEr cut a workpiece
without using a fence, jig, or miter gauge as a
support guide. otherwise, the workpiece could
be aggressively pulled from your hands, drawing
them into the spinning bit.
DO NOT fORcE WORKpiEcE. never force
materials past the router. let the router bit do the
work. Excessive force is likely to result in poor
cutting results and will cause kickback conditions
that could cause serious personal injury.
WORKpiEcE SiziNg. nEVEr use a workpiece
shorter than six inches without special fixtures
or jigs. otherwise, the workpiece can become
trapped between the fence and router bit, which
could draw your hands into the spinning bit.
BLiND cUTTiNg. Keep the router bit on the
underside of the workpiece when making blind
cuts. this will decrease the risk of accidental con-
tact with the rotating bit.
USiNg SAfETy gUARDS. to prevent ampu-
tation or other injuries, always use a guard.
Fabricate additional guards or jigs for special cir-
cumstances. use an overhead guard if the fence
is removed.
ROUTER BiT ROTATiON. always feed the
workpiece against the rotation direction of the bit.
otherwise, the workpiece could be aggressively
pulled from your hands, drawing them into the
spinning bit.
TRippiNg hAzARD. to prevent tripping over the
power cord of the router when not in use, always
disconnect it and safely store it out of the way.
ROUTER BiT hEighT. Keep any unused portion
of the bit below the table surface to minimize the
risk of your hand contacting the rotating bit.
No list of safety guidelines can be com-
plete. Every shop environment is different.
Always consider safety first, as it applies
to your individual working conditions. Use
this router table and other machinery with
caution and respect. failure to do so could
result in serious personal injury, damage to
equipment, or poor work results.
Like all machinery there is potential danger
when operating this router table. Accidents
are frequently caused by lack of familiarity
or failure to pay attention. Use this router
table with respect and caution to decrease
the risk of operator injury. if normal safety
precautions are overlooked or ignored, seri-
ous personal injury may occur.

5. Make marks on the base and the router to
guide you when mounting the router so that
it will correctly face the front of the router
table.
Router installation
the phenolic router mounting board included
with the router table is designed to attach to the
bottom of your router in the same manner as the
router base.
6. remove the router base from the router.
7. turn the router table mounting board upside
down, center the router base on the board
so that the marks locating the front of each
match.
to complete this installation, you will need a drill,
drill bit(s), and fasteners. We recommend using
the router base as a template for the hole pattern
to be drilled in the mounting board.
8. use the mounting holes in the router base as
a template to mark the holes for drilling the
holes in the mounting board (see figure 11
for an example).
important: When deciding how to orient the
router in relation to the router table, take into
account access to the router controls, such as
depth adjustment knobs, lock levers/knobs, and
the power switch.
Note: There are multiple circles in the under-
neath surface of the mounting board to aid in
centering the router base as a template.
To install your router onto the mounting
board:
1. disConnECt routEr FroM poWEr!
2. insert the mounting board into the router
table so that the starting pin holes are to the
right of the opening, as shown in figure 10.

10. Make countersinks in these holes from the
top of the mounting board so that the fasten-
ers will be slightly below the top surface of
the board. this will prevent the workpiece
catching on the fasteners during operation.
To align the router mounting board and table
inserts even with the table:
1. disConnECt routEr FroM poWEr!
2. remove the fence assembly from the table.
11. turn the router upside down with the mark
you made in Step 5 facing you.
3. lay the straightedge across the router mount-
ing board and table inserts in a star pattern
(see figure 13) so that both ends are over
the table.
12. position the mounting board, top surface up,
so that the mark you made on it in Step 3
is facing you and the mounting holes in the
board are aligned with those in the router.

1. Examines the workpiece to make sure it is
suitable for cutting.
The purpose of this overview is to provide the nov-
ice machine operator with a basic understanding
of how the machine is used during operation, so
the machine controls/components discussed later
in this manual are easier to understand.
2. adjusts the fence boards close to the bit for
maximum workpiece support, then secures
the fence boards in place.
Due to the generic nature of this overview, it is
not intended to be an instructional guide. To learn
more about specific operations, read this entire
manual and seek additional training from expe-
rienced machine operators, and do additional
research outside of this manual by reading "how-
to" books, trade magazines, or websites.
3. adjusts the bit height for the desired cutting
profile.
4. adjusts the fence position to establish the
depth of cut and makes sure that it is parallel
with the table t-slot.
5. Wears safety glasses and a respirator.
locates push sticks or blocks if needed.
6. Verifies that the direction of router bit rotation
is correct for the operation, and then starts
the router.
To reduce the risk of
serious injury when using
this machine, read and
understand this entire
manual before operating.
important: For smaller workpieces or odd-
shaped workpieces, a zero-clearance fence
or jig is used.
7. holds the workpiece firmly and flatly against
thetableandfence,thenpushestheworkpiece
into the bit at a steady and controlled rate
until the workpiece moves completely beyond
the router bit.
Damage to your eyes and lungs could result
from using this machine without proper pro-
tective gear. Always wear safety glasses and
a respirator when operating this machine.
important: The operator is very careful to
keep the workpiece firmly against the table
and fence and hands away from the rotating
router bit, during the entire cut.
8. stops the router.

Workpiece
inspection
To avoid workpiece kickback or binding
when using a miter gauge with this router
table, ALWAyS make sure the fence boards
are parallel with the table T-slot before
beginning operation.
some workpieces are not safe to cut or may
require modification before routing. Before rout-
ing, inspect all workpieces for the following:
•
foreign Objects: nails, staples, dirt, rocks
and other foreign objects are often embed-
ded in wood. While routing, these objects
can become dislodged and hit the operator,
cause kickback, or break the bit, which might
then fly apart. always visually inspect your
workpiece for these items. if they can't be
removed, do not cut the workpiece.
Squaring fence &
Table
When using a miter gauge, it is important to make
sure the fence boards are parallel to the table
t-slot. this will help ensure that the workpiece
does not bind or kickback during operation. use a
fine ruler to make the distance between the fence
boards and the t-slot equal along the full length of
the table (see figure 15 for an example).
•
Large/Loose Knots: loose knots may
dislodge during a cutting operation. Knots
can cause kickback and machine damage.
Choose workpieces that do not have large/
loose knots or plan ahead to avoid cutting
through them.
•
•
Wet or "green" Stock: routing wood with a
moisture content over 20% causes unneces-
sary wear on the router bits, increases the
risk of kickback, and yields poor results.
Excessive Warping: Workpieces with exces-
sive cupping, bowing, or twisting are danger-
ous to cut because they are unstable and
often unpredictable when being shaped. do
not process workpieces with these charac-
teristics unless you properly square up the
stock with a jointer and planer.
figure 15. adjusting the fence parallel with the
table t-slot.
•
Minor Warping: Workpieces with slight cup-
ping can be safely supported if the cupped
side is facing the table or the fence. a
workpiece supported on the bowed side will
rock during a cut and could cause kickback or
severe injury.

(guard removed for clarity).
6. place a straightedge against the outfeed
fence board, then adjust the fence assembly
so that the straightedge is also against the bit
flute, as illustrated in figure 16.
7. Make sure the fence boards are parallel with
the table t-slot, lock the fence assembly in
place, and tighten all knobs.

4. raise the bit just above the top of the
workpiece, then rotate it by hand until the
cutting flute is perpendicular to the fence
boards.

5. secure a shim between the outfeed fence
board and fence support. the thickness of
the shim controls the amount of material
removed with each pass. (see the illustration
in figure 16).
To reduce the risk of hand injury from acci-
dental contact with the spinning router bit,
ALWAyS make sure the fence and router
guard are properly positioned and secured
before connecting the router to power (does
not apply to free hand-hand routing.
important: To reduce the risk of kickback, do
not take more than 1⁄8" off for any one pass.

6. lock the fence assembly in place, tighten all
knobs, connect the router to power, then per-
form the cut.
To cut a profile into the workpiece:
1. disConnECt routEr FroM poWEr!
2. secure the bit into the router according to the
router manufacturer's instructions.
Routing Small Stock
3. install the smallest table insert into the table
that still allows the bit to freely rotate.
Feeding small stock past the router bit increases
the risk of kickback from the workpiece slipping
into the space between the fence and bit. if you
must route small stock, use a zero-clearance
fence. this will provide greater protection for the
operator, better workpiece support, and reduced
tear out on narrow or fragile stock.
4. raise the bit to the desired height, then adjust
the fence assembly so the fence boards are
behind the bit the same distance as the
desired depth-of-cut (see the illustrations in
figures 18–19).
To make a zero-clearance fence:
Top View
1. disConnECt routEr FroM poWEr!
2. remove the fence boards from the fence
support.
3. select a piece of straight and smooth stock
that is the same height and thickness as the
fence boards and approximately 36" long.

5. Create countersunk mounting holes in the
zero-clearance fence so the bolts, flat wash-
ers, and star knobs removed from the fence
boards can be used to secure the new fence
to the fence support in the same manner.
free-hand Routing
irregular or free-hand routing, as illustrated in
figure 21, takes a high degree of skill and dexter-
ity and is done without the protection and aid from
the fence and guard. the most dangerous part of
free-hand routing is beginning the cut, when the
router bit first contacts the workpiece. often the
workpiece will tend to jerk or kickback, presenting
an injury hazard to the operator.
ALWAyS use hold-downs or featherboards
and push sticks when shaping small or nar-
row stock. These devices keep your hands
away from the spinning router bit and suffi-
ciently support the stock to allow a safe and
effective cut, reducing the risk of personal
injury.

free-hand or irregular routing greatly
increases the chance that the operator may
lose control of the workpiece, which could
result in serious personal injury. Therefore,
a starting pin or block and a custom guard
or workpiece holding jig MUST be used.

to reduce the likelihood of kickback when free-
hand routing, use the starting pin or block (see
figures 21–22 for examples). this will allow you
to anchor and slowly pivot the workpiece into the
bit as the cut is started, making the operation
more stable and safe.
3. remove the fence assembly from the table.
4. if possible, fabricate and mount a custom
guard over the bit that safely protects your
hands from the spinning router bit.
5. insert the starting pin in the best suited hole
on the routing table or clamp a starting block
to the table (see figure 22 for a generic pic-
ture).
6. install a router bit with a bearing guide as
directed by the router manufacturer's instruc-
tions, then raise it to the desired height (see
figure 23).

ALWAyS use an auxiliary jig and extreme
care when free-hand routing. Routing with-
out the fence and the attached guard greatly
increases the risk of accidental contact with
the spinning router bit, causing serious per-
sonal injury.

7. rest the workpiece against the starting pin,
then slowly pivot and feed the workpiece
into the bit. after the cut is started, move
the workpiece against the guide bearing and
away from the starting pin.
To free-hand route:
1. disConnECt routEr FroM poWEr!
2. Fabricate a jig to use with the workpiece that
will match the desired finished shape, then
attach it to the workpiece (see figure 22 for
an example).
Note: Make sure any fasteners used will not
make contact with the router bit during the
cutting operation. Hot glue can be used as an
alternative.

SEcTiON 4: MAiNTENANcE
cleaning &
protecting
Always disconnect power
to the router before per-
forming maintenance.
failure to do this may
result in serious person-
al injury.
Frequently vacuum sawdust and wood chips from
the table and router, then blow off the remain-
ing dust with compressed air. this is especially
important for the internal working parts of the
fence assembly and the router. dust build-up
around the router is a sure way to decrease its
life span.
Schedule
For optimum performance from your equipment,
follow this maintenance schedule and refer to any
specific instructions given in this section.
Daily check:
•
•
•
•
•
•
loose mounting t-bolts or lock knobs.
Worn router switch.
loose stand fasteners.
loose router mounting fasteners.
Worn or damaged router cords and plugs.
any other condition that could hamper the
safe operation of this router table.
