Milwaukee 5619-20 1.7-Max-Horsepower D-Handle Router Kit

Featuring a 1-3/4 maximum horsepower (11 Amp, 24,000 rpm) Milwaukee motor, this powerful and precise router gives you the upper hand in all but the heaviest of cuts. The BodyGrip design is a comfortable overmolded rubber grip wrapped around the base with an adjustable hand strap that allows for left and right-handed operation, and two overmolded palm-grip side handles for superior comfort, maneuverability and control.

The exclusive linear depth adjustment features a large steel motor lock, and lever and depth adjustment gearing via a durable threaded screw integral to the motor itself. Both coarse and microfine adjustments are fast and accurate. The router sub base includes a special access hole for a common 3/8 inch hex extension wrench for above-the-table depth adjustments, which makes it ideal for router table applications and eliminating the nuisance of reaching beneath the table to set the cutter (or bit) height. This revolutionary system simplifies this once tedious process required with other designs and ensues that the switch and cord remain in the same optimal location.

For the router user who prefers a trigger control, Milwaukee has created this D-handle version (5619-20). This unit features a durable glass-filled nylon handle with comfortable cushion-grip and a trigger switch with special lock-on button for continuous, effortless operation.
