The Bosch 1617PK can be used as fixed base or plunge router. It features an 11 Amps, 2 HP, 25000 RPM (no-load) motor with plunge base and fixed base in a carrying case. The kit features the exclusive quick-clamp system, allowing tool-free movement of motor from base to base. The depth adjustment system feature coarse and microfine bit depth adjustment with re-settable indicators.

The motor has a one-piece armature shaft for accuracy and long bit shank capacity. The kit includes 1/2 inch and 1/4 inch self-releasing collets, templet guide adapter and comfortable drop-forged wrenches.
