About this deal

These adapters are easy to insert and stop dust from getting out of the router. It’s great that Dewalt added two adapters instead of just one because now you can use this router with various vacuums. Equipped with Star Protection Computer Controls™ to protect against overloading, over-discharging and over-heating

There is a lot to like in this machine. Like most ½ inch routers, the motor is variable speed. Whether you are working softwood and need high speed to stop splintering, or need a slower RPM for hard lumber, this router can accommodate. The handles designs are knob style, which is very comfortable and ergonomic, considering they fit into the anatomical shape of your hand. These handles offer a good grip even when using the highest speeds.

The power of an electric router (given in Watts) goes hand-in-hand with the maximum size of router bit that it is able to accept and the maximum depth of cut the power router is able to make. Typically, routers with wattages of less than 1500W will not accept the bigger router bits that have a 1/2-inch shank. These lower powered routers are for lighter work and more precision cutting. Routers that accept 1/2-inch-shanked router bits will have enough power to handle just about anything you can throw at them. Router-Table Compatibility There is an easy to read depth adjustment scale for precision cutting depths that can be set in 0.1mm increments The Makita 1-1/4 HP Compact Router (model RT0701C) delivers performance and precision in a compact design. With a full 1-1/4 maximum horsepower, the RT0701C is engineered for a range of precision routing applications. Smooth - The linear ball bearing provides a super smooth plunge action without excessive play or tightness The best routers boast powerful motors that you can use for different jobs. These motors allow high speeds and will also last for years, especially if they’re built from heavy-duty materials. Powerful motors allow you to cut through difficult materials, including aluminium or hardwood, so you can complete a variety of tasks. Soft Start Button

The Makita RP0900X router, however, is not all perfect and does have its share of minor issues. Firstly, and surprisingly for a Makita router, the plunge action on the machine is quite stiff, making it difficult to incrementally increase routing depth on-the-fly. Application of grease or WD-40 is a common ploy to deal with such clunky plunge action, but only partially helps in this case. Therefore, with this Makita router, the best method for getting accurate routing depth is ensure that it is set accurately beforehand using the integral depth gauge. The depth stop rod is easy to adjust, and you can easily read its scale both in inches and in millimetres. This is a safety feature, but it’s also a feature that allows you to concentrate on the technique instead of getting frustrated that the motor keeps lagging. Powerful Motor

Routers are devices that help you mill tiny chips of the material you’re using, to give it a new shape according to your creative ideas. And if that’s not enough, consider the three preprogrammed depth stops that increase your precision. Corded power meets cordless convenience with the 18V LXT Brushless Compact Router (model XTR01Z, tool only, batteries and charger sold separately). The 18V LXT Router has an efficient Makita BL™ Brushless Motor for up to 50% longer run time, increased power and speed, and longer tool life. It is compatible with Makita 18V LXT Lithium-Ion batteries (sold separately).Instead of hooking up to a vacuum, Makita gets rid of dust and dirt thanks to a combination of labyrinth-style retainers and the fan. Although some reviewers believe this is a superior way of minimizing dust, others favour the traditional vacuum hookup.
