From the Manufacturer

Featuring a 12-amp motor that delivers variable speed performance from 8,000 to 24,000 RPM, the DeWalt DW618 2-1/4-HP fixed-base router offers all the power and versatility that professionals demand. Soft start provides an extra-smooth finish and helps ensure that this tool even performs well when working with the toughest hardwoods. With a micro-fine depth adjustment ring, you can count on accurate adjustment in 1/64-inch increments, while a clear, Lexan sub-base ensures durability and visibility. The long, eight-slot collets are self-releasing to provide excellent bit retention for dependability. A steel motor cam lock and quick-release motor latches make adjustments and base changes tool-free, fast, and easy when you need to switch tasks, and a unique, detachable cordset helps keep this tool easy to service. This router also provides over-molded, rubber handles and a well-balanced body for increased operator comfort and control. The unique switch and cordset configuration allows you to keep the switch in your right or left hand, while a flat top and spindle lock further increase the ease of bit and depth changes. The switch is also dust-sealed for durability and longevity. Kit includes DW618M motor pack, DW6184 fixed base, 1/4-inch and 1/2-inch collets, wrench, and is backed by DEWALT’s 3 year limited warranty.
