Help with Craftsman Router Table # 171.25490

[oldpops]

Hello, I have an old Craftsman Router Table (Model Number 171.25490) and I am missing whatever type of bolts or screws that are used to hold the fence secure. I have tried to do some research on the internet, and found a few owners manuals/parts list but with my old eyes, I am unable to see exactly which part(s) I need. Does someone here have the same router table and /or knows what screws/nuts/bolts/handles are used on the router table fence to hole it secure? Let me say THANKS in advance to all who offer help!

Post a pic of where they go, might help.

This one says 1/4-20 carriage bolts, 1-3/4” long, up from the bottom into a knob. All stuff you can grab at your local Ace, or here.

I don't own that particular one but most of those types of tables didn't use very specialized hardware. The fence and table should both be slotted and intersect at roughly 90deg. They would use 1/4" or metric equivalent bolt and a plastic knob and some flat washers for each slot to cinch it in place. Some may use a carriage bolt to lock in the slot, but otherwise I think it should be fairly simple and straight forward? Maybe post us a picture of your table?
Regards

Thanks folks! The table does have one 3 sided knob but I like the 4 sided knobs better.
