Hi Matin

It's been a long time but I had one like it along time ago,they only made some with round handles on them ,they worked about the same way as a Porter Cable router

That's to say the round ring was for fine adjustment the fence was junk, it had a screw(s) under the handle to lock it in place,, but sorry no manual it was it the box and it went with the router when I sold it off..
It would only take on 1/4" shank bits if I recall, I tried to find one on ebay like it but the only two I found are below but maybe ask the seller(s) for a copy of the manual can't hurt to ask...
But I'm sure in time you will see one listed on eBay...or maybe
http://denver.craigslist.org/
http://geo.craigslist.org/iso/gb
http://london.craigslist.co.uk/tls/
======

==========
The part number I don't recall but I'm sure the one you have tells the seller that it's UK model type...

hi bob

yes there are two small screws for locking the fence in position if only i knew what it looked like lol the only thing i can imaging the two hole in the side are maybe for a dust extractor or a possible d type handle ?? maybe

Hi Martin

You can make a fence easy on that one easy ,,, two rods and a hardwood block will do the trick..
Dust pickup I don't think so, D-Handle don't think so...maybe a lock for the fine adjustment ring (spring steel type) ... I don't recall a D-Handle in the manual as a Opt. item.

Hi bob

beginning to think that way my self improvise . I have an old Black and Decker fence but its a bit to narrow between the attachment rods but I'll give it some thought as that one has a fine micro adjustment on the fence end as well which would be nice .

any of you other woodies out there have a similar model that could say what the two machine threaded hole are for maybe ?
