I picked up a Craftsman router model number 13517508 and router table model number 26501 second hand. Unfortunately the previous owner didn't have the manuals and some of the hardware.

I am hoping to find (ideally) a copy of the manual(s), electronic or otherwise.

As a close second, I am hoping for some advice on the size/style screws/bolts needed to attach the router to the table.

Thanks for any help you can give.

HI Lee

Here's a link to get the manual But you don't need it.

Take one of the screws out of the router base (that holds the black plate inplace) then take it to your ACE hardware store and pickup some Allen Flat head screws that are the same size but just a bit longer so you use the same holes to bolt the router to your table..

Can it really be that easy?

Thank you, O Supreme Forum King Bob.

I have been unable to get the Sears Parts Direct site to even recognize this model number. The Manage My Home site also doesn't recognize it and a real live person (I think) has submitted a request for it.

I didn't know that the screws that hold the base plate on are the same diameter and thread pitch as the ones that mount the router to the table. Thanks for the great tip!
