• Somerouters,whenpositionedinanupside
down position (such as on an router table),
will drop or fall out of the router base when
the base clamp is loosened to adjust height
or depth of cut. Therefore, it is extremely
important to support the router from below

the base clamp is loosened.

sure the router is turned OFF, the router
bit is not rotating, and the power cord is
unplugged from the electrical outlet. Then,
make absolutely sure that the overhead
guard clears the router bit and the workpiece.
