on a flat, level surface.
2. Align the notches on the mounting plate with
the protruding parts on the table base, then
insert the edge of the mounting plate (with
two notches) under the pressing plate on the
table base (Fig. 5a).
3. Put down the mounting plate slowly until
its right edge is against the clamp-handle
of the router release mechanism and seats
flat on the table base. The clamp-handle
