ATTACHING BASE TO
MOUNTING PLATE
Attach the RA1165 to the router table's
mounting plate using either or both sets of
enclosed mounting screws.
The base has two sets of threaded holes for
mounting the base:
• Three 10-24 holes in industry-standard
3-hole pattern.
• Four M4 holes in Bosch 4-hole pattern.
Included mounting screws for the RA1165:
• Three 10-24 x 3/4" screws.
• Four M4 x 20 mm screws.
If your router table mounting plate does not
have countersunk holes in either of those
patterns, you will need to determine the hole
Assembly & Installation
Read and understand these instructions, tool manual, and router
table manual for use of these accessories.

locations, drill and countersink them, also
locate and drill a hole for the over-table
adjustment wrench.
Note: Because each of the holes in the
Bosch 4-hole pattern goes all the way
through the base, it is easier to use it as a
template for marking the mounting plate
for drilling, than is the 3-hole pattern
(which has one hole that does not go all
the way through the base).
The RA1165 should be positioned so that its
quick-release clamp lever and depth adjust-
ment controls face the front of the router
table. (Fig. 1)
Once the mounting plate has suitable coun-
tersunk mounting holes, attach the RA1165
using one or both of the attachment screw
sets with a no. 2 Philips screwdriver.
