I have a Porter Cable 985 router with under table height adjustment. Does the insert have the 2 holes necessary for the height adjustment feature?

Funny...The answer is yes it has the holes, but they Do Not align with the adjustment key hole...my work around was to use pilot hole and then a step drill 2 make the hole the correct size..

I have a Porter Cable 890 router and the holes almost align they are off by about a 16th of an inch. It works but you have to wiggle the adjustment wrench to get it to work. I am planning on making the hole just a tad larger so that the issue goes away.

yes there is course adjustment and if using a height gage you can get very close in tolerance,you also have a micro knob adustment from below table. be sure to unlock before making any adjustments or you will strip the gearing out. i found this router to be excellent for the cabinets and mantel i have made. i would recommend this router to any wood worker.

The main router table top has I believe 10 predrilled pilot holes that line up with holes in the base. simply install the mounting screws. Every thing lines up. It was very easy and I move mine around and it has stayed very secure. I would also like to add the assembly instructions are verygood and easy to follow.

I had mine installed on an older Craftsman and now it's on a Delta.. --- The router table has various hole spacings...I believe you can download the bench dog manual which shows the hole spacings...

I have a Craftsman router table. Bought it at Xmas for $149. No complaint. This is just until I can build one on the table saw.For height adjustment, you have to reach down and unlock the motor, make coarse adjustment. Then make fine adjustment on top.For bit change, to avoid having to use 2 wrenches, I bought a Musclechuck. With this, I can change bit with 1 hex key, all above the table.

This lift does not have any holes drilled to mount your router. The lift clamps around the motor to secure it. If your router is a 3-1/2" diameter motor it should fit. I would check the JessEm website to make sure it will fit your router.

Yes the bases for both the trim router and the plunge router are able to utilize standard Porter Cable guide bushings. If you purchase the accessory D shaped base it does not accept bushings.

I think no. The faceplate of the router has a 3 1/4 inch center hole, where the porter cable type bushings are for a router with a 1 3/16 center hole. The router comes with a metal guide that attaches to the base and provides this need without guide bushings. I do not use guide feature, as this unit is for a router table in my shop, so it did not bother me. note the large center hole in pictures of this unit. you will simply see that there is no way it would work with the guide bushings. Sorry.

They are sized for Porter Cable routers and you would need to "try" or measure your shaft and call PC and see if they can confirm the shaft size for you

I am sorry I do not. I have mine in a Hawk router table and have never had any troubles. It just uses the depth adjustor in the base. Maybe you have some saw dust built up in the threads. Does the locking clamp on the base still work?

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

It should fit as both the router table and the SawStop have the same 27" depth of table. You may need to drill a hole or two if they don't line up but surprisingly cast iron is not that difficult to step drill to necessary size. I don't know which SawStop professional you have -rail length- but I would install on the right side of the table, not the left as indicated just because you SawStop is dialed in with the cast iron plate provided.MAKE SURE YOU CHECK THE SURFACE FOR FLATNESS!!! I had an issue with one of these.

Firstly, the table is intended to work with trim routers which are smaller than standard routers. The officially supported models are Bosch Colt, Porter Cable 450 and 7310, DeWalt DW 611. Secondly, you can likely make it fit any trim router if you are willing to drill the base to fit your specific router. Finally, you would need to remove the plunge base before mounting the router.

Hitachi apparently sells an item listed as a " Fine adjustment knob" (Code No. 318304) that fits over the depth adjustment screw and allows depth changes when, for instance, the router is inverted on a router table. I moved what I suppose is one of these screw devices from another Hitachi router without knowing the proper name for it. It makes live much simpler.

The table extension on the right side is a plastic laminate, and I can't tell if you can easily cut the holes you need for the router. I wouldn't recommend it. There are four clearance holes on the left side of the top casting. You could easily design a router table mounting scheme using these holes. I would want it to be easily removable because otherwise it would interfer with sawing larger pieces.

Most router tables have blank inserts available that can be customized to any hole configuration. If unsure of the process, perhaps you have a woodworker friend that could help with the process. Avoid plates thicker than 1/4 inch since the thicker plate the less cutting depth for the router.

No I did not have this problem at all. The router easily attaches under the fixed base under the table. Look at some YouTube Videos how to mount the router under the table. Hope it helps. Good Luck.
