I cannot get router to fit into base. I know it needs to be at right angles to the base. Does it take great pressure to snap it into the base?

I have 2 of these units and both were easy to assemble, maybe the plastic fingers that fit together may have a bur or possibly the plastic did not mold correctly, good luck !

yes i use it in mine, kreg makes a pre-drilled router insert for this router, I tried drilling mine the first time but had issues just installed the predrilled and it took 5 minutes and everything is perfectly aligned

It is very easy and fits great with a Milwaukee Router 3 H.P. Make sure to align the upper hole with the Milwaukee base for access by your hex tool from the top. Up or down.Take the base off the router to mark and drill the other holes.

I cannot answer these two questions without removing the router from its housing in my router table--way too much trouble, as once it is in place, it stays there. I recommend that you contact Porter Cable directly and get this information.

It will not work. I am not aware of any bases that are made for that trim router. I would suggest getting another router with more power. Your router is only designed for flush trimming basic profiling. It is not designed for plunge routing, the frame of your router only has attaching points on one side.

you need to screw the connector into a antennae port on whatever router you use, if you have no port or connection, doesn't seem like it'll work

You have to drill your own holes for any router, so it should fit in theory.

You need a plunge router I bought a Dewalt with multiple bases works great on this ststem

I'll give it a shot, but I'm not sure about finding the router's advanced settings since it was given to us by the phone company. There's no software or anything. I guess I could call Verizon for help if I can't find where to enter the PIN. I'll also give the unit some time to connect. Thanks for your input.

The two previous posts/ comments are correct. Yes, it should fit, but it's not pre-drilled to fit 25 different router sizes, shapes and hole configurations, so it means you don't have an insert plate that looks like swiss cheese. You use the clear template included to mark and drill holes in the insert plate that match your router exactly.

It does not fit into a normal base. What I did was stuff the base with foam pipe insulation, and it fit perfectly, hope this helps.

I'm not sure, but the rails that secure it to the base of the router are not adjustable.

My husband says there are some slots in the base that you need to line up to get it started right. Then you can screw it on more easily. Hope this will help you.

No, it will not work with the base that comes with the router. You will have to get a base with a 15/16 opening

Comes with it but you'll have to drill a hole in the router table top for it. Find it's very accurate, easy and much easier than trying to adjust the router from below. My router table is custom made from Norm Abram's plan, bending over to adjust the router from beneath in a confined spot is not for me.

No idea - sorry. First router I ever bought was a craftsman and had the same problem - could accept any accessories. Stick with Porter-Cable

I use a dewalt palm router with mine. It's the diameter of the base you need to be concerned with. There are 3 tabs for leveling and do are used to support the plate the router is attached to. The 1/4" thick x 5-3/4" diameter acrylic base, what I am talking about. The tabs extend inward no more than about 5/8th's of an inch. Can measure and edit later. Of course, if you don't mind modifying your base on your plunge router, no reason it wouldn't work.
