Hi Al
It's a easy job,, in the install kit you should find some cone point set screws and also a line up plug,, turn the plate upside down put the line up plug in the router, then put the router on top of the drop in plate.
Take a pencil and draw around the base of the router now take the router off the plate and put in the cone set screws,with the sharp points sticking out then put the router back on top of the plate, take a hammer and tap the router, this will ,mark the spots to drill the mounting holes, remove the router and use a 1/8" bit a drill the holes out, then filp the plate over and drill the hole out to 3/16" hole and counter sink them, then put the router on top of the cabinet top and put the drop in plate on the router and put the screws in place...once you have the router and the plate in place you should have some small set screws to level out the plate and the ring..
Once you have it level back one of the set screws out a put a drop of glue on the set screw and put in back in place then do the other set screws the same way...same thing for the ring... use some blue stuff you down want to lock the set screws in place just a drop of blue stuff to keep them from turning free..
hope this helps..

Many years ago I bought a CMT Router table kit ( The older model with a grey table, probably a predecessor to the new orange based ones) but never opened it. Last month I retired and thought that now was the time. In came in three boxes, the cabinet, the top and the fence.
Unfortunately there were only instructions for the cabinet and the fence, but no instructions for the top.
It was easy enough to build the cabinet and to mount the top, but I have no idea how to mount the router to the plastic plate or what all the screws that seem to fit around the mounting aea are for.
I can not find anything that has the address of the manufacturer to call and ask for instructions.
Can anyone please either tell me where to call or how to mount my router?
