Insert the lock knob through the hole in the fence assembly and screw it into the square nut below. Repeat for the other side. LEG ASSEMBLY Place router table upside down on a flat, level surface, so that the front edge is closest to you. With the router table upside down, the leg with the rectangular cutout should be in the front left corner of the table. Align the four holes in each leg with the four corresponding threaded holes in each corner of the table. Use the hex wrench provided to secure each leg with four 1/4-20 x 1/2 in. Position them around the throat of the table so that the three holes of each guard line up with the three threaded holes in the table. Use the hex wrench provided to secure each lower guard with three 1/4-20 x 1/2 in. 4 SWITCH BOX ASSEMBLY Hold the switch box so that the words ON and OFF on the toggle switch are upside down. Carefully insert switch box through the cutout in the left front leg as shown in Figure 5. Align the two small holes in the mounting tabs with the two small holes in the leg. [. . . ] The workpiece must always be tight against the fence assembly, unless a ball-bearing piloted cutter is being used. The infeed fence should be adjusted to support the uncut workpiece while the outfeed fence should be adjusted properly to support the workpiece after the cut passes the router cutter, compensating for the removed stock. DIRECTION OF FEED IS FROM RIGHT TO LEFT AGAINST THE SHARP EDGES OF THE ROTATING CUTTER. 13 Page 11 MAINTENANCE WARNING: When servicing, use only identical Ryobi replacement parts. [. . . ]
