Chapter 5 Mounting the Router
Mounting Instructions
Step 1 Assemble the straps and the mounting plate by threading the two steel straps through the band strap slots
on the mounting plate.
Step 2 Select a mounting location on the pole.
Step 3 Position the mounting plate on the pole as needed and tighten the straps around the pole.
Step 4 Use the BAND-IT strap tool to tighten the metal bands around the pole, following the instructions in the
box with the tool. Ensure the metal bands are as tight as possible (approximately 7-ft/lbs).
Note When the metal bands are tightened to the full tension, the mounting plate cannot be adjusted unless the
metal bands are disassembled or cut.

• Install the Mounting Plate—Poles Up to 4.5 Inches in Diameter, page 5-8
• Install the Mounting Plate—Poles Larger than 4.5 Inches in Diameter, page 5-10
What You Need
