Freud FT3000VCE 3-1/4-Horsepower Variable Speed Plunge Router
Author: jlchrls
Boasting a powerful 15 amp motor, Freud’s newest plunge router is a heavy-duty champ. But this is no ordinary full-sized router. The FT3000VCE also features an extended spindle shaft with through the base locking system for easy, safe above-table bit changes. Plus, the height adjustment system is also accessible through the base for quick, accurate adjustments. 3-position turret stop allows you to switch between common depth settings in an instant. Soft-start motor reduces start up torque and the electronic cruise control system ensures that the speed remains constant under varying loads. With the electronic regulator sealed from dust and debris, this router will be a top performer for years to come.

Ergonomic handles rotate to 8 positions to suit your angle of approach and routing height. To power it all, the 13 amp motor provides plenty of muscle, with variable speed from 10,000-23,000 RPM and features soft-start for safety and durability. Includes carrying case.
