Preparing the guide plate
1. Choose the correct Guide Plate (1 or 2) that fits your Triton
router model (see 'Product Familiarisation')
2. Loosely fit the two M4 Screws (4) into the holes in the depressed
side of the Guide Plate, leaving a 3mm gap under each screw
head
3. Sit the Alignment Bush (3), recessed side up, in the centre of the
Guide Plate with the two notches aligned with the screw heads
4. Rotate the Alignment Bush until the notches no longer align
with the screw heads, then tighten the screws using a suitable
screwdriver (not included) to secure the Alignment Bush to the
Guide Plate
Fitting the guide plate to the Triton JOF001 and
MOF001 plunge routers (Fig. I)
1. Turn the Triton router upside down and plunge it to the collet
lock position
2. Remove router bit, if installed
3. Using a suitable screwdriver (not included), unscrew the four
Phillips screws that secure the black plastic baseplate. Remove
the baseplate
4. Fit the Guide Plate (2) into the dedicated recess on the inside
surface of the plastic baseplate (i.e. in between the router base
and the baseplate, see Fig. I)
5. Position the Guide Plate (2) over the router collet on to the
router base
Note: Ensure the plastic baseplate is centred on the router base,
and that all four screw holes are correctly aligned.
