I had to make some adjustments in the mounting to fit my lift. I have a "JessEm" "ROUT-R-LIFT". I am looking forward to using it with my pin router jig. I mounted the read-out on the wall as my table is against a wall. Read out is very easy in this arrangement.
Customer Rating:
I find that I often like to set-up my router table to repeat profiles after I have removed a specific bit. Now, I install the router bit in the machine and set it flush with the table, then zero-out the Wixey and adjust exactly the same way each time. If I need adjustments, I just record the same offset for the future. Caution when installing the cartridge on your router lift - make sure it will not extend beyond measuring rule when the router is fully dropped. Nice family company with good email customer service.
