Key Router Table Applications

• Routing narrow materials where the use of a router side fence isn’t practical or there isn't enough stock to safely support the router while cutting
• Use of wide cutters, like panel raisers, where use in a hand-held router would be dangerous
• Repetitive routing where clamping/unclamping material for hand-held routing wastes time

• 80mm plunge depth - This Trend plunge router is ideal for deep-cutting applications. It's perfect for lock jigs, worktop joints and timber profiling.
• Powerful 2200W motor provides a great power-to-weight ratio for smooth and effortless handling
• Fine height adjuster with an easy-to-read display for precision depth adjustments. One rotation equals 2mm height adjustment.
• 11-level variable speed control offers precise control across a wide range of cutters, materials and applications. The handy rpm reference guide makes matching the speed to the maximum shown on the cutter simple. The control dial is also recessed to prevent accidental adjustment.
• Constant speed control monitors the spindle rpm and automatically adjusts it to maintain the cutter speed for smooth and consistent cuts
• Extra-wide 75mm base aperture to accommodate over-size cutters, like panel raisers
• Micro-adjustable side fence with a dust extraction port, adjustable facings and 0.1mm increments for accurate edge rebating, grooving and moulding
• 7-position rotating turret with pre-set plunge depth limits for fast, repeatable batch and stepped cutting
• Trend base configuration - A standardised fixing pattern of holes allows this Trend router to be attached to a range of compatible router tables, jigs and accessories for a wider range of applications
• Router table compatible for a wider range of applications:
  • Height adjuster allows you to easily and safely change the cutting height from above the table
  • NVR compatible - A no volt release switch can be fitted, which provides an independent switching arrangement for this Trend 1/2" router
  • Safety clip mechanically pulls the trigger inwards to keep the power on, which allows safe use of a standard NVR
  • Cam-lock system compatible for quick changes between hand-held and table routing
• Precision centring system contains a unique guide bush centring pin and adapter plate which ensures perfect concentricity between the cutter and guide bush for pinpoint accuracy with routing jigs
• Soft start prevents ‘kick-back’ on start-up for improved accuracy and a safer, more comfortable user experience
• Ergonomic, inclined handles with an integrated power trigger and a soft grip moulding for comfortable operation of this Trend 1/2 inch router
• Twin LED work lights illuminate the cutting area to improve accuracy and safety when using this Trend half inch router in low-light situations
• Double locking collet prevents accidental cutter ejection, while a multi-spline profile ensures concentric clamping of the cutter shank
