Modify a Bosch POF 1200 - Remove the legs and Base

Hello all
First post here so forgive if it has been asked (but I haven't found anything about it on the net to date)

I want to fit my Bosch POF 1200 under the table and remove the plunge mechanism. Has anybody modified there Bosch POF 1200 (or similar)?

Another option is to remove the whole base plate. There are two very small hollow type screws holding the legs to the base plate - Any idea how to undo these? They are not allen keys.

Thanks in advance

Colm

Hi Colm;
I have similar router - Bosch POF1400.
Those are not screwes holding the base but pins. It's very hard job to dissasemble POF router. It's not enough just to remove the base. You need to dissasemble the router to remove pillars. The attached image is for POF1400 but POF1200 is built practicaly the same way.
I think it is just simpler to mount it on a table as gav suggested.
Regards
