Features

  • The flush ball bearing mount keeps the height down to just ½” (12 mm), making it easy to route rebates or stacks of panels in tight spaces.
  • Adjust routing depth accurately to 1/256” (1/10 mm). A simple lock keeps the router base secure during operation.
  • Swap bits quickly and easily with the push‑button spindle stop.
  • The clear dust extraction attachment captures shavings, while the spring‑loaded ball bearing brake prevents burn marks for flawless surfaces.
  • Quiet, efficient, and powerful. Built‑in motor management minimizes vibration and extends service life.
  • Sleek design and angled battery placement deliver a perfect center of gravity for horizontal or vertical use.
  • Cutters mount directly to the spindle for top‑notch run‑out accuracy and professional‑quality results.
  • All the control of a trim router - without the cord getting in your way.
  • The durable base runner prevents scratches or dents and glides smoothly across any material.
  • A smaller hole diameter in the base plate, paired with matching cutters, ensures perfect milling without tipping.
  • The spring‑steel ball bearing brake provides extra space to maneuver when working without dust extraction.
  • MMC electronics let you adjust speed to match the material, keeping it constant under load. Temperature monitoring protects the motor for long‑lasting performance.
  • Automatically sync with the Dust Extractor — when the router starts, the extractor switches on too.
