Ryobi Router Table Throat Plates
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
One World Technologies is recalling throat plates sold with Ryobi Router Tables, model RT101, which were included in combo kits with model numbers R161RTA and R162RTA. The throat plates are five yellow plastic rings that guide the router bit and provide a stable surface around it. The plates do not securely snap into the router table's bit opening and can come loose during operation, potentially being ejected from the table and causing lacerations.
Consumers who own affected router tables should immediately check whether their throat plates securely snap into the table's bit opening. If the plates do not snap in securely, consumers should stop using the router table right away and contact One World Technologies for a free replacement set of throat plates.

The recall involves Ryobi-brand router tables, with model number RT101, which is written on the table's data plate, located on its front leg. These tables were sold as part of the Ryobi combo kits with model numbers R161RTA and R162RTA. The combo kit model number is written on the packaging. A router table holds the router underneath the table. Instead of moving the router over the wood, the table allows the user to guide the wood for cutting. The throat plates are components of the table that consist of five yellow plastic rings. They serve as a guide for the router bit and provide a stable surface around the bit.
