Router

I received a used 315.17480 the other day that was taken from one of the Craftsman router tables. I does not have any kind of base on it. Anybody know where I can order one? I've been looking around the Internet but come up empty.
Router seems to work fine, but I have no information on it at all!
I believe never look a gift router in the bit! I took it anyway.

I have the same Router, and I'm looking for a "locking Lever". Any ideas ?

The actual Arm

Define waht you mean by "locking lever". The actual arm that swings over & locks into the groove in a nut? I think I might have a spare. Do you also need the spring?

The term used in the Craftsman manual was "locking lever". I probably need the spring and the machine screw, also. I'm sure I can find the screw somewhere. I got this router from an old friend of mine, about 20 yrs ago. I never got around to using it, therefore, I never knew it was missing this "Arm". Its the arm that swings towards the shaft and fits into a precise groove, which renders the shaft stationary while one tightens or loosens the collet nut. 1/4" shaft on the router bits.

If I may purchase this from you, I would gladly do so. Or, maybe I have a nice tool or something I could send you. Or, maybe, I might be able to get you a good price in a Freud router bit, because the company I work for is a Freud wholesaler.

Sincerely.

Yes, I think I need both. The locking lever swings into the grooove, preventing the shaft from turning while one changes the router bit.:blink:

Locking Lever

I have a spare locking lever,spring & machine screw from a 315.17381. These parts appear identical to the ones on my 315.17400. You are looking for 315.17480 but my quess is that they are all the same & would fit??????? What do you want to do?

Its going to work, I looked it up on the Sears Parts website, it's the same thing !

Could u send it to me ?

Thanks,

Tom
