Never Used a Router Change Elevation Question

You need to pull the router from the table and become familiar with the workings of the adjustment mechanism. Generally speaking, there will be a locking mechanism and an adjustment collar to set your bit cutting depth. Unlock, set the depth and re-lock. Re-install in the table and repeat the process with the router in an inverted position.

the answer to your question is here:

I don't mean this in a mean way, but you should get a manual for the router and read it and then make sure you understand how to use it before trying to do so. If you do that, you'll have no problem answering your question.

Did I misunderstand, or do you have no experience w/ power tools? Continuing along that vein, also no safety knowledge of power tools? Find a friend or neighbor to help you out, BEFORE you start using.

"I don't think so, Tim!" :-)

I have looked everywhere for a manual. Believe me I know you are right. They don't sell them anymore at Sears. I may get it on Ebay one day.

Reading a basic manual for any router will at least give you some basics of how they work. Get a book at the library to learn how to use it safely. Buy one of Pat Warner's books and become a pro.

Sears Parts Direct; enter the model number you gave then search for 'manual'

They are out of it.

Like I suggested, take the router out and use some logic. It's not all that difficult. But like Rick said, if this is very foreign to you *please* get a little assistance. Fingers and eyes are too rare to take a big risk.

Actually they list the manual for this router on their replacement parts web site. Do a search for the model number and view the parts list. The manual is the last entry. I just did the search. It is there. Go to www3.sears.com . I was given a model 315.175050 router and actually went to the repair and service outlet for the local sears store and the ordered it for me. About ten bux IIRC.
