What to do if my MasterCraft Tool Storage router does not work?
If the router isn't working, there are several possible causes: * Ensure the router's power cord is plugged into the router table outlet. * Verify the router table's power cord is connected to a power source. * Check that the switch on the router table is in the “ON” position by inserting the key and pulling the switch.
Why is the table surface of my MasterCraft Tool Storage not flat?
If the table surface isn't flat, it could be due to: 1. Improperly assembled legs. Check the assembly directions and tighten all fasteners securely. 2. An uneven work surface. Ensure the router table is placed on a flat, level surface.
