This cordless wood router puts a brushless motor in a palm-sized body, so trimming, edging, and grooving happen without a cord dragging across the workpiece. Six variable speeds run from 10000 to 30000 RPM, which is the difference between easing a bit through hardwood at the low end and leaving a clean finish on thin trim at the top, and a soft start brings the motor up rather than jolting the tool at the moment of contact. The 1/4 in collet, or 6.35 mm, takes standard router bits, and cutting depth adjusts up to 0.79 in, or 20 mm, which covers thick wood as readily as a shallow edge pass. Power comes from Makita 18 V lithium batteries, which are not included, running at 18 V and 6.7 A with a 60 A maximum protection ceiling, so an existing battery collection powers the router without a proprietary pack. A built-in LED throws light onto the cut line where a shop or job site is dim and shadows fall exactly where the bit is working. A parallel guide and a fixed trim base handle the steering, keeping straight cuts straight and holding a consistent offset through curves and grooving work in a garage, workshop, or outdoor site.
Brushless Motor 6 Speeds to 30000 RPM: A brushless motor runs 6 variable speeds from 10000 to 30000 RPM, matching cut rate to hardwood at the low end and trim at the top
1/4-in Collet 0.79-in Depth Range: A 1/4 in or 6.35 mm collet takes standard router bits, and cutting depth adjusts up to 0.79 in or 20 mm for thick wood as well as edges
Soft Start With 60 A Protection: A soft start eases the motor up to speed instead of jolting the tool, and the battery interface carries a 60 A maximum protection ceiling
Cord-Free in Garage Shop or Site: With no cord to route around the work, the palm router moves freely through a garage, a workshop, or an outdoor job site
Runs on Makita 18 V Lithium Packs: The router accepts Makita 18 V lithium batteries at 18 V and 6.7 A, and no battery ships with the tool, so an existing pack powers it
LED Lights the Cut Line: A built-in LED throws light where the bit is working, keeping the line visible in a dim shop instead of relying on overhead lighting alone
Parallel Guide and Fixed Trim Base: A parallel guide and fixed trim base hold a consistent offset, keeping straight cuts straight through curves and grooving work
