I purchased this last month, and as I'm setting it up with my OF1400, I realize the screws that insert through the bottom up into the router base plate will protrude and drag across the work piece. In looking at other pictures of the LR32 baseplate, I think the two black guides are missing.

Are there different versions of the LR32? Is there a part I can buy ?

I'm hoping to use this asap.

Thanks

Yes, your plate is missing the two black spacer pads -- they raise that end of the plate to level it.  You probably will need to call Festool for a replacement -- unfortunately, the black spacer pads are riveted onto the plate, so they are likely NOT to be a separate replacement part.
