The RA1161 fixed base is designed to allow easy depth adjustment in a table. The RA1162 "D" D-Handle base will not fit in most router tables. FIG. 28 10-24 Screw ! CAUTION The RA1166 Plunge Base is not recommended for use in a router table. Damage to plunge router base may occur. Mounting Plate To eliminate the hassle of installing your router's own base on the router table and later having to convert it back for non-table use, Bosch offers the optional RA1165 Undertable Router Base (Fig. 28). The RA1165 base is designed to be permanently attached your router table, leaving your other router bases ready for non-table use. The motor can be quickly moved from base to base - without any tools! Quick-release clamp lever and depth adjustment controls should face the front of the router table -21- Hex Wrench Hole for Hex Wrench Shown after subbase has been removed
