Your router is uniquely suited for use in the
Bosch router table. For detailed instructions
about router table procedures, please refer to
the manual that is supplied with the router table.
To prepare the 1619EVS for table mounting, do
the following:

1. Engage plunge lock override lever as follows:

Facing the rear of the router, move plunge
lock lever approximately 90 degrees
clockwise. Depress small override lever and
slowly release plunge lock lever until override
lever catches firmly on metal housing as
shown in diagram. The motor is now free to
move up and down on the posts (Fig. 22).

2. Engage the plunge return spring defeat

(Fig. 23).

Note: This unique feature makes it easier to
adjust the height of the bit when the router is
mounted under a router table.

a. Move the depth rod to its highest position,

and lock in place with coarse adjustment lock.

b. Remove the collet chuck.

c. Rotate depth stop turret to the position shown

in Fig. 23.

d. Plunge the router motor down as far as it

will go.

e. While holding the motor down, press and hold

down spring defeat button.

f. Allow the motor to move up slightly.

g. Release the button.

The plunge return spring pressure is now
disengaged.

3. Connect the depth rod to the depth stop

turret by rotating the depth stop turret so that
the large end of keyhole slot is aligned with
the lower end of the depth rod. Release
coarse adjust lock, and lower depth rod into
the large end of keyhole slot. Rotate depth
stop turret until the smaller end of the keyhole
traps the end of depth rod (Fig. 24). (To keep
the rod in the keyhole, there is a raised rim
around the underside of the smaller end of the
keyhole. When inverted, the weight of the
router keeps the depth rod inside the raised
rim.) Note: When the router motor is at its
further point away from the base, the motor
must be moved slightly closer to the base so
the depth rod can clear the raised rim.
