Where did you buy the router? Have you contacted them yet?
Have you checked Triton's website? They list a number for the USA/
Canada Customer Service Hotline: 1-888-TRITON1 [874-8661] .

You aren't missing anything. I have the smaller one and never use the
winder. You gotta reach under to lock/unlock the lock lever anyway,
may as well adjust the height while you're at it.

It is not an accessory it is a function of the machine. Works like a
dream. If you cannot figure it out read the instructions and start
from basics. It is there. Are you sure the safety cover on the switch
is closed?

A hint here, mount the router so that the fine tune knob is on the front
right side when mounted in the table. The coarse knob will be on the right
side also.

This leaves the speed control on the back side but you can get around that
with a mirror. The switch will be on the left back side which is not a
problem either once you get the feel of the door and switch.

I thought the above-table adjustment was only on the smaller Triton model.

I wonder if Phil is referring to the ability to change the bit above the
table, as opposed to the through-the-table winder available on the
smaller one.

It works fine on my 3 1/2 hp model. Maybe read the instructions again.
You are missing something. Are you sure the safety cover on the switch

Been away so hence the delay in replying. I misunderstood the original
post. Doug got it right. Sorry for the confusion and misinformation.

My Triton 3.5 does not have an ABOVE adjustment, only below.
