About this deal

The carry case is impossible to pack the router back into, and,more importantly, the screws fixing the boss benefit from being replaced with machine screws: the ones supplied vibrate loose and can throw the boss. Variable speed motor with constant speed control with a convenient variable speed dial on side handle.

There are several actions that could trigger this block including submitting a certain word or phrase, a SQL command or malformed data.

The machine was collected free of charge, and i eventually got refunded (after a bit of prompting) so i didn't lose out financially (apart from, possibly, on the unused router bit set) but it was a waste of time and effort. I suppose my only complaint is that the switch is not very safe and can be on when the mains power is turned on. In the end, the woodwork specialist suggested that the collet wasn't 1/2", but 12mm - a slight but material difference. We are currently experiencing substantial delays with Hitachi/HiKoki and Metabo spare parts due to the two brands merging warehouse.

Credit subject to status, UK residents only, Industrial Tool Supplies (London) Limited acts as a broker and offers finance from PayPal credit. The Hitachi M12VE Router is a powerful variable speed router with accurate depth adjustment for increased cutting effucency, soft start and adjustable handles for optimum comfort. I have some issues: -the speed dial isn't marked, and will adjust itself when the router starts vibrating ( I solved this with a lump of blu-tack. Its a 2 kW machine so it has the extra power when you need it, the layout of the switches seem fine, It's a solid bit of kit.The best advice I have to offer is to get one in your hands and try the controls and see how it feels to you. It's not mentioned in the documentation, but this router does come with a 1/4" collet in addition to the 1/2" one fitted to the router. That may be a missing retaining clip (not sure if there should be one but there's not, or it may benefit from a touch of 2000 grit love).
