Your Ryobi power tool is double insulated. This means you  
are separated from the tool’s electrical system by two com-  
plete sets of electrical insulation. This extra layer of insula-  
tion is intended to protect the user from electrical shock  
due to a break in the wiring insulation. All exposed metal  
parts are isolated from the internal metal motor components  
with protecting insulation. Double insulated tools do not need  
to be grounded.  
When working with a tool outdoors, use an extension cord  
that is designed for outside use. This is indicated by the let-  
ters "WA" on the cord's jacket.  
Before using any extension cord, inspect it for loose or ex-  
posed wires and cut or worn insulation.

OPERATION  
WARNING:  
WARNING:  
Your router or router table should never be connected to  
a power supply when you are assembling parts, making  
adjustments, installing or removing cutters, or when not  
in use. Disconnecting your router and router table will  
prevent accidental starting that could cause serious injury.  
Never operate the router table unless both lower guards  
are securely in place. Failure to do so could allow loose  
clothing, cords and hands to come in contact with the  
spindle while in operation and could result in serious per-  
sonal injury.  
INSTALL/REMOVE CUTTER  
SET CUTTING DEPTH  
Unplug your router and router table.  
Set the cutter at zero depth of cut (flush with top or router  
table surface). Rotate depth indicator ring to desired depth  
of cut on the scale, then turn depth adjustment ring back  
to zero depth of cut. See Figure 10.  
WARNING:  
Failure to unplug your router and router table could result  
in accidental starting causing serious injury.  
WARNING:  
To prevent damage to the spindle or spindle lock, always  
allow motor to come to a complete stop before engaging  
spindle lock.  
Remove two of the hex cap screws securing the rear lower  
guard to the table. Rotate guard out of the way, exposing  
the spindle.

Securely lock clamping lever. See R161 Operator’s  
Follow the instructions on Installing/Removing Cutters  
found on Page 8 in the Operator’s Manual for the R161  
Router.  
Manual page 9.  
SELECT AND INSERT THROAT PLATE  
Your Ryobi RT100 router table is shipped with an assort-  
ment of five circular throat plates. The throat plate provides  
a stable surface around the cutter and prevents objects from  
falling through the throat and damaging the spindle.  
WARNING:  
This router table is to be used only with the Ryobi R161  
Router. Do not attempt to use any other router with this  
table. Failure to heed this warning could result in improper  
operation of the tool and serious personal injury.  
The selection of the proper size throat plate depends on  
the size and shape of the cutter you are using. When  
inserted, the throat plate opening should be within ap-  
proximately 1/4 in. of the outer most edge of the cutter.  
Return the lower guard to its proper position and secure  
by inserting and tightening the two hex screws previously  
removed.  
To insert the throat plate, position the throat plate over the  
throat opening in the router table and snap throat plate down  
and into place as shown in Figure 11. To remove throat  
plate, pull gently until the throat plate snaps out.  
WARNING:  
If you are changing a cutter immediately after use, be  
careful not to touch the cutter or collet with your hands or  
fingers. They will get burned because of the heat buildup  
from cutting. Always use the wrench provided.  
Note: If using a cutter larger than 1-7/8 in. but less than  
2-3/8 in. in diameter you may operate the router table with-  
out a throat plate. This is the only situation in which the  
router table should be used without the throat plate.  
WARNING:  
WARNING:  
Never attempt to operate router table without the throat  
plate in place. Failure to do so could result in the work-  
piece jamming or objects falling into rotating spindle which  
could cause serious personal injury.  
Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side  
shields marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1 during power  
tool operation or when blowing dust. If operation is dusty,  
also wear a dust mask.

OPERATION  
POSITION THE FENCE OR MITER GAUGE  
For any router operation, you will use either the fence or the  
miter gauge to help guide your work through the cutter.  
To position the fence: Loosen the fence lock knobs by  
turning them counterclockwise. Loosen the fence lock  
knobs just enough so that the fence moves freely. Position  
the fence the proper distance from the cutter based on  
the amount of material you plan to remove. Tighten the  
fence lock knobs.  
Fig. 11  
To position the miter gauge: Loosen the miter gauge  
knob, rotate the miter gauge to the desired angle and  
retighten the knob.  
WARNING:  
Do not use cutters with undersized shanks. Undersized  
shanks will not tighten properly and could be thrown from  
the tool, causing injury.  
ADJUST THE STEP RISERS  
The step risers, located on the outfeed side of the fence,  
enable you to support your workpiece as it exits the cut-  
ter. The step risers will provide support for routing opera-  
tions that remove up to 1/8 in. of material. The step risers  
are adjustable in 1/32 in. increments.  
To adjust the step risers loosen the two knob bolts on the  
rear of the fence and push the riser forward and toward  
the throat. See Figure 12.  
Retighten knob bolts.  
PERFORMING A ROUTING OPERATION  
For the proper use of your Ryobi R161 router on your  
RT100 router table, carefully read the entire Operator’s  
Manual included with your Ryobi R161 router.  
Fig. 12  
WARNING:  
Direction of feed for workpiece is always against the sharp  
edges of the cutter. Failure to feed workpiece against  
sharp edges of cutter can result in serious personal injury.  
PREPARING FOR OPERATION  
Adjust the guard/dust cover so that it will not come in con-  
tact with the workpiece or cutter during a cutting operation.  
Direction of feed of the workpiece is from right to left  
or with the cutter located in the fence opening. See  
Figure 13.  
Direction of feed must always be so that the workpiece is  
being fed against the sharp edges of the rotating cutter.  
The workpiece must always be tight against the fence  
assembly, unless a ball-bearing piloted cutter is being  
used. The infeed fence should be adjusted to support the  
uncut workpiece while the outfeed fence should be ad-  
justed properly to support the workpiece after the cut  
passes the router cutter, compensating for the removed  
stock.  
DIRECTION OF FEED IS FROM RIGHT TO LEFT  
AGAINST THE SHARP EDGES OF THE ROTATING CUTTER.

MAINTENANCE  
GENERAL MAINTENANCE  
WARNING:  
When servicing, use only identical Ryobi replacement  
parts. Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause  
product damage.  
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most  
plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of  
commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use.  
Use clean cloths to remove dirt, carbon dust, etc.  
Periodically check all clamps, nuts, bolts and screws for  
tightness and condition. Make sure that the throat plate,  
guard/dust cover assembly and lower guards are prop-  
erly positioned and securely attached.  
WARNING:  
Always begin any maintenance procedure by disconnect-  
ing the router and router table from the power supply to  
avoid risk of serious personal injury  
IMPORTANT  
Servicing of a tool with double insulation requires extreme  
care and knowledge of the system and should be performed  
only by a qualified service technician. For service we suggest  
you return the tool to your nearest RYOBI AUTHORIZED  
SERVICE CENTER for repair. When servicing use only  
identical Ryobi replacement parts.  
WARNING:  
Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-  
based products, penetrating oils, etc. come in contact with  
plastic parts. They contain chemicals that can damage,  
weaken, or destroy plastic.  
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has a  
polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug  
will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not  
fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,  
contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do  
not change the plug in any way.
