Router, Fixed Base 3 1/2 Max HP, 15amp 120v

A production woodworker’s dream router, Milwaukee's 3-1/2-horsepower router will handle any bit you give it. Mounted in a table, this unit can take even the place of an expensive shaper for many applications--it's that powerful. The soft start is surprisingly smooth, given the enormous heft of this machine. The design is smart, too. The motor is stationary as you raise and lower it, so the the power cord doesn't wrap around anything. Better yet, everything can be adjusted from above your router table top. Milwaukee's exclusive linear height adjustment system gets you precise adjustments to within 1/8 of an inch and micro-fine adjustments to within 1/64 of an inch with the turn of a knob. When using the unit freehand, you’ll love the tilted handles, an innovation Milwaukee’s competitors should adopt. The slight angle gives you the superior control you need when using a router this powerful, all the way up to the max rpm of 22,000 rpm.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

User questions & answers

Question:	What country is the Milwaukee 5625-20 router made in, the USA I hope
Answer:	My saw is still new. So far, I haven't seen any oil leaks. However, I have three older Stihl saws that do occasionally leak oil. There are steps that make oil leaks manageable: keep the area under the chain drive cover meticulously clean, store the saw on some easily discarded cardboard that will absorb minor leaks, allow the saw to cool before storing.
Question:	Do this router have collete for 1/4" shank
Answer:	It is 2-3 times the saw conpaired to the 18v one it’s no gas saw but it works really good in my opinion. Great for using at my chipper to cut stuff smaller to fit don’t ha e to start it and worry about putting a hot saw in the weeds and starting a fire
Question:	Does this come with a case? I know that's a crazy question, but I want to make sure
Answer:	It’s out all ready
Question:	can i buy this router just the motor without the base to use id for my router table
Answer:	Hi, there is no Schrader valve. It is a 14MM male thread connector for the 4 brass adapters.

User questions & answers

Question:	can you set this up for a table router
Answer:	My short answer would be yes. I'm not sure whether there are commercially available tables for it, though. You may have to build one yourself.
Question:	What is the set of drill bits should I buy for this tool. I bought the MLCS 8377 15-Piece Router Bit Set with Carbide-Tipped 1/2-Inch Shanks and are n
Answer:	This is a 1/4" collet router. If you want to use 3/8" (new to me) or 1/2" get a 1/2" router. I've used routers for 45 years. Own a 1/4" and two 1/2" Here's a quick guide: 1/4" router is the most widely useful, can be held in one hand for quick work, your arm doesn't get tired as fast as with a larger router. This one is good for hinge guides and door installs, laminate trimming (laminate trim bits with bearings), round over of the edges of boards or plywood. Makes a neat no slivers edge, get 1/2", 3/4" diameter cove bits (these will make 1/4 and 3/8" from the edge curves) I get these with bearings as well. (If you want less of a curve, use less depth, the curve is not symmetrical--no one will care. This is what I usually grab my 1/4" router for (I've got a Porter Cable 1/4" that's 40 years old. Can't figure out how to take it apart to replace the cord. Rather than a $60 trip to the tool repair I'm thinking of this one, vacuum dust collection is a plus). Shelf dados, usually 1/2 to 3/4" wide, is best done with a more powerful 1/2" router, but you can get by with this with two passes (overlapping) of a 1/2" straight bit. Plunge routing: always use dust collection. Freehand scroll work: 1/8 or 1/4" round bits- I don't do this, others do. If you don't yet have a router, or a specific shop need, get a 1/4". If you think you need one of those $400 router tables: don't. Make your own or buy a jointer. Figuring out how to make a router table will teach you about making jigs (you can make a fence that has finer adjustment than the fanciest most expensive one on the market) Direction of working. There's a correct direction to running a router along the edge of a board. With plywood, pine, fir, spruce, etc.. going the correct way can rip out long splinters. If you first make a very shallow pass in the 'wrong' direction to knock off the edge, then go normal depth in the correct direction, you can avoid this. (I still don't know if I want this router or not. There were 6 opened and reclosed boxes (returns?) at the Home Depot. Why?)
Question:	can it be used for wood doors and frames for hinges
Answer:	Yes, but it is a much better used as router than a door or frame hinge.
Question:	Can I trim my toe nails with it
Answer:	I definitely would use a flush trim bit. A round over or rabbiting bit might be too much. IMO
