    Default Probs Fitting Router Table To Router Stand

    Hi,
    I have the Triton RSA 300 router stand and the Triton router table RTA 300. Try as I might, I can't get the table fitted to the stand. Any help on this would be much appreciated. I've looked on the net, Triton how to vids on this, nothing, same on You Tube. I'll take and upload some photos, to try to explain the difficulty I'm having.
    Cheers.

    Hi again,
    You can enlarge to see the detail more clearly. I enclose links to photos, In photo 005 you can see a chrome nipple and hole in top right hand corner. The nipple is on the router stand. The table mounting hole fits into this. There is a nipple and hole on the other side, I've fitted the nipples into both holes.

    I've taken several photos which might help to see the problem. I'm also uploading 2 pages from the router assembly guide, see fig 5.The guide mentions the red domed locking latches, I've taken several photos of these. Try as I might these are not interested in fitting the table to the stand.
    Thanks for any input.
    Peter.

    I don't believe it, just had another go at it, the table snapped 100% properly into the stand as it should.
    After all that taking and uploading photos and 1 finger typing.
    Never mind, sods law

    Glad you got it to fit. what I did on mine was to put a slight bend inwards on the very top of the two brackets that poke up at rear of the stand ( where the catches go ) about 1/2" from the top of the bracket you can use a shifter to do this, it will make it easy to push the table down and still lock the top nice and firm into the stand.

    Cheers Warren

    Yes Warren is in perfectly now, see my earlier posts about it. Now have a problem fitting the Dewalt 625 into the sub plate now, see my most recent post.
