DEWALT DW616K 1-3/4 HP Fixed Base Router Kit Review

The DEWALT DW616K 1-3/4 HP Fixed Base Router Kit is a top-of-the-line router package designed with woodworkers and professional carpenters in mind. At the heart of the tool is a powerful and smooth-running 11-amp, 1-3/4-horsepower motor that provides all the power you need to make precise, clean cuts even in the toughest hardwoods. But what really sets this router apart is its micro-fine adjustment ring, which allows you to dial in your depth setting with 1/64-inch increments. This means you can make even the most delicate adjustments with ease, and without the need to turn the motor itself, ensuring a constant switch/cordset location. Additionally, the router's motor housing and base are made of precision-machined aluminum for durability, and the motor housing has nickel plating for smooth depth adjustments. User-friendly features like adjustable, tool-free steel motor cam locks and quick release motor latches make bit and base changes fast and easy. Plus, the toggle switch is sealed against dust penetration, and the cord is fully detachable for ease of use and storage. The DEWALT DW616K also offers the versatility to be used with DeWalt's DW6182 plunge base or DW6183 D-handle base, both of which can be easily attached and removed without the need for tools. With its carrying case for easy transport, the DEWALT DW616K is a top-quality router package that stands heads and shoulders above the rest.
