a. Trigger (On/Off Switch). Used to turn the router On and
Off.

speed of the router. The higher the number, the faster the
motor speed.

lowered with this handle.
e. Plunge Depth Gauge. Indicates the depth of plunge. This
is used in conjunction with the other depth setting
features to determine the depth of plunge.

the plunge depth relative to a basepoint setting.
g. Plunge Stop Micro-adjust Knob. The micro adjustment
knob is used to fine tune a depth setting by small
increments.

auxiliary handle for the router, and also clamps the
router in a fixed-plunge position.
i. Depth Post Lock. This lever locks the depth post in
position.
j. Depth Stop Turret. The turret allows for three rapid-
change depth settings based on a single depth stop. Each
position can be adjusted for individual depth.

secure optional accessories below the base of the router,
such as a template guide.
l. Outrigger Clamping Knob. The clamping knob is used
to secure outrigger accessories to the router base, such as
an edge guide accessory.

can be connected to a vacuum system for chip removal.

collection port in position.

shaft from turning during a bit change. The dual action
lever locks the spindle in one direction and ratchets in the
