3.

Unplug the Router motor.

4.

With your right hand loosen the Router T-Knob a few turns to provide enough slack to
drop the Router Motor down into your left hand and then out the rear door.

5.

When re-installing, make sure the motor face is pushed up to seat flush with the tabs on
the yellow carriage (if unsure, remove table top to confirm location).

6.

Tighten the black T-Knob onto the U-Bolt. Hold the motor face flush with the yellow car-
riage tabs until the motor has been fully secured by the U-Bolt.

7.

Manually rock the Motor Carriage toward the rear of the machine and make sure that the
router bit cleanly fits in the slot on the table top.

brushes and replacing the tooling.

2.

The Router motor is warranted for one year from the purchase of the machine.

3.

Warranty replacement and parts purchases can be handled by your nearest Porter Cable
