lat to ensure that the depth of all cuts is uniform.We also

want that table to stay lat under all types of conditions.

Everyone knows that a melamine or MDF table cannot assure

that result. Since Sommerfeld’s was the irst company to

introduce a phenolic table over 10 years ago, we have found

that even phenolic may not be perfectly lat coming from the

manufacturer. So, we decided to make our new table out of

extruded aluminum.

When you receive your shipment from Sommerfeld’s, carefully

unpack all the components, laying them out for easy reference

during the assembly process. Assembly is easy. Simply follow

the directions listed in this manual.

Driver, Clear Skid Tape

3 Top Sections

We went to the best people in the country we could find

– Alcoa™. Alcoa™ assures us this table will not sag over time.

With extruded aluminum, we have a table and fence with

unprecedented flexibility. With that choice, we decided to make

our table and fence longer (table 36” – fence 48”). We also

made our table 27” wide to fit most table saws. The top is made

up of three 9”sections that are lined up perfectly with tongue and

grooves in the extrusion, and then they are bolted together under

the table.

MAKING PLYWOOD SUB BASE

This is optional, but we recommend. The plywood sub base

gives you a transition to build a custom router table cabinet

to hold your router tabletop. It can also be used to install your

router table in the right side of any table saw with a 27” depth.

You need a inished piece of frame 27” x 31 l/2” to it the

router table. The hole pattern to attach your wood frame to the

4-5/16”x18x1 ½” hex head bolts and the 4-5/16x18x2 ½” hex

head bolts already under your table is as follows:

Create Tongue & Groove framework 3” wide to frame the top.

POSITIONING PLYWOOD TO ROUTER TABLE

First, slide all 8 bolts into position to make it easy to drop

plywood sub base on. Use eight 5/16” washers and eight 5/16”

nuts and tighten base on.

All holes are 1/2” diameter. (Use 1/2” Forstner bit) Not drawn to scale.

We Tongue and Groove a 3” wide piece of framework

around the ¾” plywood to give it strength plus this allows easy

attachment to table saw or your custom cabinet. Cut ¼” tongues

in 4 sides of plywood and ¼” grooves into 3” framework.

Position the sub

base so that it

fits between the

left and right

brackets.

ATTACHING ROUTER

When attaching router, place router upside down on any

worktable. Next, position router table on router making sure holes

and router raiser all line up. Use the 4 black ¼”- 20 x 3/4” cap

screws to screw router on. A 5/32” hex driver is included. Keep

this driver for positioning infeed & outfeed fences on fence.

STep #11

Cut the 8’ strip of adhesive tape to correct lengths for bottom

of fence. Tape should be placed on 2 outside runners on bottom

of fence. Peel back off tape and place correctly. (This will prevent

fence from scratching tabletop and allow it to glide freely.)

MAINTENANCE TIP: Keep an eye on tape. If it starts to come

off, we advise using our 2P10 glue or any similar glue to keep in

place.

STep #9

ASSEMBLING THE FENCE

Screw pivot pin in to correct depth, and lock down jam nut

to lock pivot pin in place. (Threads should not extend below

bottom surface of fence.)

Cut strips of the adhesive tape and run along the full length of the bottom of

the fence as seen above

STep #12

Place the fence on the table so pivot pin goes in hole. Make

sure your router raiser hole is not under the fence. (If using the

Triton router). If it is, turn fence and use other pivot pinhole.

STep #10

Cut off dust port to correct diameter for your matching dust

hose, and slide dust port from end of fence to center of fence.

We recommend the TrITon

router for your new table!

Tap the dust port with a rubber mallet to the center of the table. Cut the

dust port off to the proper size of your dust collection system
