SAFETY

Always unplug your router motor before making any adjustments
to the router lift. Refer to your routers’ owners manual for specific
safe operating instructions.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

The Woodpeckers

®

Side Winder can be installed in most

router tables with a standard 9¼ x 11¾ opening and a side
panel mounting surface no more than 19" away as in the
side of a cabinet or router table stand. In most cases three
holes will need to be drilled for mounting the side plate.
These instructions assume installation of the Side Winder on
a Woodpeckers

Router Table and Router Table Stand as

shown in Figure 1.

USING THE LIFT WRENCH

You’ll need to know how to use the Lift Wrench to install
your router motor. The Lift Wrench is typically used without
the lift spring and comes without the lift spring installed. It’s
recommended that the wrench be used without the spring
for installation of the router motor.
Figure 2. To change the carriage height (the carriage is
the part beneath the table that holds the motor), orient the
wrench with the handle pointing left toward the adjustable
scale.
Insert the wrench until it’s COMPLETELY BOTTOMED
OUT. Once it’s all the way in, try and rotate it. If it doesn’t
turn, it isn’t in. Do not force the wrench. Take it out, push it
back down and try again. Once it turns easily, simply rotate
it in either direction to lock the handle to the carriage. Now
raise or lower your router as needed. For the next step you
need to raise the motor completely to the top and remove
the lift wrench.

CHANGING BITS ABOVE THE TABLE AND
MOTOR LENGTH

Motor length determines whether above the table bit changes
are possible. Shorter motor barrels like that of the PC690, Bosch
1617/1618 and a few others are too short for above the table bit
changes when installed in the Side Winder model SW420 or SW414.
The SW350 Side Winder is designed for above the table bit changes
when using smaller, shorter motors.
