The all new 2 1/4 hp router from Hitachi combine a sweet design with Hitachi's unmatched electronic feedback router motor. The KM12VC and M12VC routers are powered by an 11 Amp variable speed motors with a RPM range of 8,000 to 24,000 and Hitachi's electronic feedback system which allows the bit to maintain the set RPM throughout all cuts. This increases cut performance and reduces unwanted tear out. Both 1/2" and 1/4" bits can be used in this tool along with many templates and guides. The easy to use fixed base dials up and down along heavy duty grooves while the scale ring reads the exact depth of cut. The KM12VC is the kit version and this tool comes with both the fixed and plunge base. M12VC includes fixed base only.
