I was looking for more horsepower than a 1 1/2 machine and was excited to see the new model. I bought this router to handle a variety of routing jobs both in and out of a table. Reviewer: A home improvement enthusiast from Wisconsin, United States I assure you if this is an example of Porter Cable products I will never buy another.Ī nice improvement on an old standby, August 19, 2002 Had I known that you have to remove the entire motor from the housing and use two wrenches just to change the bit, and then put the whole thing back together, I would have never bought it. Right now my knuckles are bleeding from changing the bit. I find that this is one of the most user unfriendly routers I have ever purchased, and I have five from Ryobi to Chacago machine. I recently purchased one of these routers from you. Farris from Columbia, South Carolina United States Includes motor #6902, fixed base #1001, plunge base #6931, professional edge guide #42690, 1/4-inch collet #42999, 1/2-inch collet #42950, two collet wrenches #42596, heavy-duty carrying case, and operator's manual. One-year warranty with a 30-day performance certification. The motor is also interchangeable with the #1001 fixed router base and the #6911 D-handle base for added versatility. Fully enclosed springs ensure smooth operation through the 2-1/2-inch plunge range. A large locking lever and a depth stop with a six-position turret make setting the bit to the proper depth a breeze. The plunge base has simple controls as well. Adjusting the bit depth when using the fixed base is as simple as releasing a lever and turning the motor within the aluminum base.Ī micrometer ring on the base acts as a reference for fine adjustments to within 1/64 of an inch. This eliminates the need to tap on the arbor to break the collet free, a practice that can damage the motor. The included 1/4-inch and 1/2-inch collets have an auto-release design that prevents router bits from becoming frozen or trapped in the collet after use.
