Routing 53
Changing motors
The Sabre may be used with the standard 3¼ hp router, the High Frequency Spindle Option, the
Automatic Tool Changer Option, or the Engraving Option. Follow the procedures below to
change the router motor. Removing the pressure foot makes changing the motor easier. See
“Removing the pressure foot assembly” on page 31 for directions.
To change motors

Shut off power to the Sabre by turning off the main power breaker on the electrical
cabinet.

Unhook and remove the side springs.
4
Loosen the four screws that secure the motor bracket to the carriage. Remove the

Slide the new motor/bracket assembly into the holes for the pins.

Reinstall the two top mounting screws, then the two bottom screws and lower spring
brackets.
