Raising and lowering a router in a table set-up can be a chore if you have to reach under the table each time you need to change the depth of cut.Being able to carry out this operation from above the table makes life so much easier, allowing height adjustments to be made quickly and accurately.The HoHong router elevator is a logical solution for fast, accurate production on many router table installations.This compact design was developed by us to fit straight into our own router tables and most table set-ups can accommodate this size of insert (305 x 229 x 6mm). The unit can be made to fit flush into the tabletop by the provision of levelling screws at each corner of the table insert. Height adjustment is carried out by inserting a handle through a measurement dial set into the machine table.Each rotation of the handle raises or lowers the cutter by exactly 2mm and the integral scale is graduated into increments enabling very accurate adjustments to be carried out.The router elevator is supported on all four corners by a substantial threaded rod which means that the router stays very stable in use.A locking mechanism is fitted so that the height of the router can be securely locked in any desired position.The rise and fall mechanism is chain driven which is an endless loop connecting the sprockets and is both easy and positive in action.Routers are attached to the router elevator either directly or with the use of the supplied adaptor plate.N.B. Machine screws will be required to attach your router to this product and the thread size will vary according to router type.
