Checking the RA1165 mounting route
The RA1165 is an under-table base listed for the named Bosch 1617 and 1618 router families. It provides a different mounting route from a dedicated lift. Confirm the exact router model and instructions before assuming a base from another Bosch family works the same way.
The above-table hex adjustment requires suitable access through the plate or table. Check the mounting-hole pattern and access-hole location together before drilling. A plate can attach to a base yet still obstruct the adjustment point if the layout is wrong. Review how you will reach the collet and controls after installation, since height adjustment and bit changes are separate operations. If your existing setup already uses this base, compare the inconvenience you are trying to solve with the features of a proposed lift. That helps determine whether a new carriage is necessary or whether the current mounting arrangement needs a more suitable plate and access layout.
