Our soft startup design prevents damage to your workpiece and lengthens the tool’s lifespan. The spring-loaded base features a lock-down knob to turn your plunge router into a fixed router.

The included guide fence lets users rout perfectly straight lines, helping to create dadoes and grooves along the workpiece. This kit comes packed with accessories, including a hard-shelled blow mold carrying case, a 1-1/2in. dust Collection duct, a bit-changing wrench, a Straight-Edge guide fence, a fence scale, a centering pin for cutting circles, a profile guide for routing edges of curvy workpieces, and a template guide for creating more complex shapes.
