Die ist gut

This machine does everything it is said to do. Smooth and powerful, perfect.

This is an excellent router to use for a router table, which is how I’m using it. I had another 3 1/2 horse router previously. The previous router would overheat frequently. The Triton has not overheated at all in my use of it.

The router adjusts the cutting depth when it's in the overhead position and the lock button isn't activated. The safety plate blocks the power switch, even though I've pushed it into the up position with force.

I've had my TRA001 for a little over 1 year and I have run 6 raised panels, built 12 dovetailed drawers, 12 drawer fronts and 1 raised panel door. I just stated work on a grandfather clock in walnut which is going to need a lot of router work. Unfortunately, during the last small project made of 1/2 birch ply cutting dovetails, the router started to vibrate and on shutdown the spindle stopped almost immediately and smoke appeared out of the hole in the table top. The spindle was difficult to turn by hand and after letting it cool down it could turn easier but still has a catch in the rotation. Acts like a bad bearing. This router has always been mounted in a Sommerfelds Tools router table and never free hand.
