OVER-TABLE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
The router adapter plate features an access hole to
allow use with the over-table height adjustment feature
on the Bosch 1617 series routers. Refer to your router
manual for additional information on using this feature.

access hole to accommodate the over-table height
adjustment:
1.Remove the subbase from the router and align
the mounting holes in the subbase with the
corresponding mounting holes in the adapter plate.
Be sure to orient the subbase so that the router
switch will be toward the front of the table.
2.Using a pencil or centerpunch, mark the location of
the over-table height adjustment hole on the router
adapter plate.
3.Remove the subbase from the adapter plate and
carefully drill the over-table height adjustment hole.
4.Make sure that the hole will accommodate the height
adjustment tool for your router. Remove any burrs or
rough edges with sandpaper.
