Both the vertical and horizontal bases included with this router offer integrated, ergonomic, guide handles that provide comfort and control while routing, and the router weighs just 4.2 pounds for reduced fatigue.In addition, the MFK 700 EQ's micro-adjustment knob allows you to make incredibly fine 1/256-inch (1/10-millimeter) depth adjustments, and its dual locking knobs prevent movement once the depth has been set.For added flexibility, the router can also be used with Festool's Parallel Edge Guide to create straight, accurate trenches and grooves (not included).Base Plate and Threaded InsertThe wide Festool base plates on this router feature materials designed to glide easily, prevent scratches, and create a bearing surface that's both flat and stable--which adds up to improved control and more pristine work.There's never any need to guess where the bit's center falls on your work piece, since MFK 700 EQ bases offer a center line indention on each side that provides for an accurate visual reference point. Plus, the vertical base included with this router features a threaded insert which accepts template guides for improved accuracy and versatility.MMC Electronics for Increased Control and Extended Tool LifeDifferent applications place different demands on your tools, and the MFK 700 EQ provides equally good results when working with a variety of materials thanks to its advanced MMC (multi-material control) electronics. It offers smooth, soft starts that won't harm your work surface, the ability to maintain constant spindle speeds under heavy loads, and variable speed control from 10,000 to 26,000 rpm. And its electronic system includes thermal protection and overload protection, extending the life of the router.In addition, this router features a Plug-It power cord. This interchangeable cord design allows you to quickly switch between Festool tools without changing your entire setup.Quick, Easy Bit and Base ChangesBit changes are quick and easy with the MFK 700 EQ, thanks to a button that locks the spindle in place and allows the collet to be loosened or tightened using a single tool. This set includes a 1/4-inch collet and an 8-millimeter collet for use with a wide variety of application-specific bits.And switching between the included horizontal and vertical bases is completely tool free. All components of the MFK 700 EQ set can be attached and removed without tools. You simply turn the locking knob three times to loosen or tighten the base-locking mechanism.Integrated Dust Extraction Improves Work EnvironmentThe dependable MFK 700 EQ also offers integrated dust extraction to help ensure cleaner air for a healthier work environment, better finishes on sensitive surfaces, and longer abrasive and pad life--not to mention quicker cleanups. It includes an effective, dust-extraction hood and a swiveling connector that allows the dust-extraction hose to move freely. When you're not using the dust-extraction hood, a sliding cover on the horizontal base unit prevents dust from exiting the top of the router.The MFK 700 EQ Modular Trim Router is backed by a three-year limited warranty and a 30-day money-back guarantee.What's in the BoxFestool MFK 700 EQ Modular Trim Router, 1-1/2-degree horizontal base and feeler bearing set, 1/4-inch collet, 8-millimeter collet, dust-extraction hood, Plug-It power cord, standard threaded base for US guide bushing, vertical base, and Systainer storage container.Non-marring base plate and threaded insert for templates.Parallel edge guide.
