The WEN RT6033 is a 15-amp plunge router that can also work as a fixed-base router. Its variable speed soft-start motor runs from 8,000 to 23,000 RPM. The soft start is designed to protect the workpiece and extend the life of the tool. It can be used for chamfers, V-grooves, rabbets, dadoes and grooves.
The spring-loaded base has a lock-down knob that holds it in the down position for fixed-base use. The depth stop system has a 7-stop turret and two adjustment dials. The depth adjustment dial advances the stop 5/16 inch per quarter turn. The fine-tune dial advances it 1/128 inch per quarter turn.
The 1/2-inch collet comes with a 1/4-inch adapter, so the router accepts both 1/4-inch and 1/2-inch bits. The included guide fence helps rout straight lines for dadoes and grooves. The kit comes with a hard-shelled carrying case and several guides and accessories.
