Replace router adjustment ring springs.
I had a little trouble with a spring falling out when I tried to rotate the ring onto the router base per your video. Maybe I should have put a little grease into the ring slot to hold it in place. However after about three tries I laid the ring on a table and put the base onto the ring and it snapped on the first try. I'm glad I found your web site and learned that all I had to do was replace the springs to make the repair. I thought I was going to have to buy a whole new base. Just replacing the rings save me quite a bit.

The depth adjustment ring on the router was loose.

Parts Used
1. Removed the router motor from the base.
2. Pull off the depth adjustment ring.
3. Place the spring by thirds in the depth adjustment ring. The springs should sit in the grooves.
4. Next place the depth adjustment ring on the base and snap on.
*** A little trick I found, is if you tighten the screw on the base of the router, it will make getting the depth adjustment ring on the base of the router a little easier.
*** Another bonus was the video on YouTube was great. I had an old Rockwell router, but found that the video on the Porter Cable 690 router was basically the same. I did a little research and found out Rockwell was bought out by Porter Cable, so the models were similar in design, so the repair was easy.

The springs inside the adjustment ring on my PC690 broke (again) and all I had to do was to insert 2 new springs into the groove, and reset the ring onto the body of the router.

Went to YouTube and searched replacing depth adjustment ring on Porter Cable 690. Video had clear and precise instructions. Only took a few minutes to install the 3 springs and ring. New ring works great.
