I made it with WoodPrix instructions !

Thank you, I've been avoiding using my router for over a year because it was broken and was planning on buying a new one. I took it apart tonite to clean it and give it one last go, but it still gave me trouble. I did noticed that the spring clip was loose so I googled replacements and found my way to this video. thank you for putting it out there, I've ordered the parts and will be fixing it tomorrow... all so I can build a new door!

do you find the fix base easily scratches the shiny silver surface of the router? You can hear it scraping as you move router up and down; and sometimes it's very hard to slide with clamp open.

Just bought a used PM66 that was made in '90. Thanks for the tips Pete.

I really needed this video. Thank you.😊

Today I had the same problem. Having watched this video weeks ago and purchased the stop collar, I made the repair in minutes. Thanks much...

Just what I needed! Up and running again.

Just bought this router and came across your video. This is a genius fix! Thanks so much for posting this!

Thank you for this video. Like others who have commented, I had the very problem you solved here. It took me a while to realize that the c-clip was the issue. I had just gotten table and wound up taking the router out three times to see why I wasn't able to adjust it from above the table. When I had it out and on its side. the friction of the adjustment shaft allowed the fine adjustment to work even without the c-clip in the right place. But, when I put it back in, the weight of the router made the router simply fall when I loosened the clamp. I was able to get the original c-clip back in the groove but I've ordered a drill stop set to make a more permanent fix. I'm surprised, and frankly disappointed in Bosch, at this sub-standard engineering on an otherwise well-made router from a company with a good reputation. The fix you devised should not have been necessary but, given that it was, I'm really glad I found your video.

Thanks for great fix to a common problem. Bosch should include drill stop collar as simple fix to their design flaw.

Thanks for a very clear video on a simple fix. Bosch should include a drill stop ring with the router.

Thanks for the tip Pete! I just got my new Bosch router for Christmas and found numerous people were having the height adjustment problem. I found your video and I just added a stop collar to mine before the first use! Thanks again! Bob

I just came across this video. Thank you so much for the straight forward fix to this issue. I was moving mine by hand. It was a pain. Thanks again!

I just ordered a set of collars. Thanks. I saw your video a couple of months ago and darned if my clip didn't come off but I remembered your video 👍👌✌️

Thanks for this! Am looking to ski and couldn’t decide if this would do it. Just booked!

what a lovely video!

Thank you. Total fix worked great.

good info

I couldn’t help but smile watching this 🥰

Love this! What a wonderful trip and the people of you know I’m in Cambodia are beautiful!

Oh my God. The first time I used the router, everything worked perfectly. Then, for some reason, my fine adjustment wasn't working. I wasted 2 hours on this before I came across your video. I was SO frustrated because I'm pretty mechanical. You saved my marriage, my friend, by providing this quick and easy fix. 😂 😂 😂

I was about to buy a new router then my son found this video. Thank you!

Never even leveled the bed

Thank you for this video. I recently had this issue with mine.

That Bosch router and table kinda talked me out of buying anything from Bosch ever again. Most of it is the standard router base. It's terrible; the way it latches onto the router is such a problem.

So, the rod stays in the base it doesnt move up and down like yours to create that 3/4" gap to install the drill bit stop. Did they change the design or whats going on why the rod wont separate from the base?

The table came out great.

I had same issue with the bevel indicator as you. There is a unbrako screw on the backside of indicator where you can fine adjust the 45 degree stop.

Hi Peter .. can I know what’s dust collector HP or brand name attached to planer ? I have DW734 and looking for good dust collector at reasonable price

Should you of checked the motor as well?

By the way, do you really need the spring clip with the stop collar? Maybe just a washer under the stop collar will do the trick.

what a crappy design! Thanks for the fix Pete. I will be hanging with you more often.

Excellent video! Thank you!!!

Thank you so much for sharing. I have the same lift base and was thinking I need to get another lift - I could not make it work. this is good solution

Does using the collar impair bit changing with router still in the table ? Jack in Idaho

I had this problem and because of you i am back in the game Thank you very much!

Excellent. Thank you!

Oh Man! I can't thank you enough! I was going crazy!!!

mabey try a dewalt router

What do you if you lose the retaining clip?

MY biggest complaint is the T slot is not 3/4" its an odd size.

O'Skool's makes a router lift that fits the bosch tables you should contact them and see if they will send it to you. I want one but I wanted to see a review on it first and cant find any. The model is Router Lift RTS017. People were buying the standard size lift and cutting it down to make the lift fit in the bosch tables. Anyway thanks for sharing your videos I enjoy them.

What happens if you lose the retaining clip? Go out buy one and hopefully it's the right size? Glad I came across this video.

Thanks for the tip !

I’m definitely a stay at home type person. However, when I went to Oahu in July, I was not in my room much. I was always out and about enjoying the scenery and amazing fresh air. I stayed in La’ie for a few days then in Waikiki for a few. I was in awe of the beautiful greenery! Of course that was because it was my first visit and I’ve spent my entire life living in the freaking ugly desert. Someday I’m leaving it behind to enjoy a naturally green environment

Very Nice! What kind of cutting gauge is being used for cutting the plywood on the floor? What is the plywood setting on to keep it off of the floor? Thanks.

Thanks, Pete. A very helpful video. I was wondering if the adjustable collar allows for making good dado cuts?

Thank you - thank you - THANK YOU ! 👏🙌

This is alot simpler than expected
