Both coarse and microfine adjustments are fast and accurate. The router sub-base includes a special access hole for a common 3/8in. hex extension wrench for above-the-table depth adjustments, ideal for router table applications and eliminating the nuisance of reaching beneath table to set the cutter (or bit) height.

great router September 8, 2008
Eric Remington
I have only had this router for a month or so now, but so far everything has been working smoothly and I am impressed with the quality of all the Milwaukee tools I have so far. I bought this router based on its high praise and it has lived up to all the acclaim.

I have several routers (Proter Cable, Hatachi, Bosch, DeWalt and Ryobi) ranging in Hp from 1 1/2 - 3 1/4. Each of these routers have outstanding features, but the one I would rate over all is the Milwaukee D and the Body comfort models.When it comes to control these two routers give the feeling of complete control over what you are doing. The startup is smooth and the power is above average. I would recommend both of these routers highly. Well done Milwaukee...

I had been looking for a "D" handle router and was in the process of deciding on the Bosch or the Makita when I came across Milwaukee's router. Both of the previous two have good reputations, and I'm sure I would have been happy with either, but what caught my eye was the features on the Milwaukee... and it didn't hurt that it was several dollars cheaper. My primary reason for wanting the "D" handle is that I prefer having that motor switch right at my fingertips.One feature I like, is that the base is tightened down to the motor, or loosened, with a metal lever that snaps open and closed. This is easier than twisting a knob, and once closed, you have a positive lock. (yes, I have failed to tighten a knob securely enough on another router and had the base come loose while operating it). Removal of the base is done by pressing a button and sliding the motor out of the base. "Coarse" adjustments are made the same way. A knob is provided on the top side for making fine adjustments. Though the adhustment is not a fine as on my plunge router, I find it to work very well. The collets require 2 wrenches to install bits, and the wrenches provided are the forged type rather than stamped metal, a definite plus. All in all this router is a pleasure to use, and my past experience with Milwaukee service has been very good.
