Default NVR Switches - Router question Part 3

Most of the router tables I'm considering (The Woodpecker range is
currently leading the pack) have NVR switches attached.

I can see the safety advantages of such a device but I as my Makita
3612C doesn't have a 'lock-on' type switch I can't see how I'll be able
to use one.

Should I cable tie the switch in the on position and use an NRV or is
there an alternative solution?

Yeah, cable tie, bit of bent metal, tape, anything like that would do
the job. My Ryobi table came with a bit of bent metal with nut and
bolt through it to lock the router on.

Cable ties are the typical way, yes.

Agreed - and confirmed by a rep of one of the router manufacturers at
a wood working show.
