Reviews:
This model takes the new 690LRVS adds a professional edge guide
and a case and combines it all in one box. We took the famous 690
router first introduced in the late 1960s and did the impossible,
improved it. Not only has the power been increased to 1-3/4 horsepower,
but also we added a dust sealed rocker switch, larger more ergonomic
handles and a one hand operated lever release for locking the motor
depth in place. This new lever is extremely useful for router table
users and incorporates a motor "catch" that will not allow
the motor to drop out of the base when loosened. The 1/2- and 1/4-inch
self-releasing collets are a dream come true when bit changes are
necessary and the 10-amp, all aluminum motor housing and base ensure
cool running even with large diameter bits. The biggest feature
yet to be mentioned is the new electronic variable speed switch
that allows you to fine tune the revolutions per minute from 10,000
rpm to 27,000 rpm. Now you can adjust the speed to match the size
of the bit and the hardness of the wood to eliminate burning and
chattering. Of course precise bit depth is easily achieved with
the 1/64-inch micrometer ring that utilizes machined pins in the
motor housing to ensure smooth, accurate adjustments every time.
This model comes complete with a machined aluminum professional
edge guide and carrying case. With external brushes and a flat top
to aid in bit changes, this U.S.A. engineered and manufactured router
is as good as it gets. You get the variable speed router #690VS,
1/2-inch collet #42999, 1/4-inch collet #42950, two collet wrenches,
carrying case, and instruction manual. Backed by Porter-Cable's
one-year limited warranty.
