Powered by a soft-starting, 12 amp, 2-1/4-horsepower motor with full-time electronic feedback for constant speed under load, the 892 can cut through molding and hard woods with speed and efficiency. For versatility, the motor moves easily between bases.
Above-Table Changes Save Time and Effort
The 892 offers the versatility and time-saving ease of above-table changes. In seconds, you can release the motor, adjust the bit height, lock the spindle, and clamp the motor from above the router table. Just use a 3/16-inch hex socket.
Design Features for Quick Changes and Adjustments
Designed for productivity, the 892 offers a range of helpful, user-friendly features. A dual-position switch allows you to cut power and yet still maintain complete control of the router with both hands still on the rubber coated handles. Bit changes are also a snap thanks to a spindle-lock feature that enables loosening of the collet with a single-wrench. A durable cam lever allows for quick, coarse depth adjustment and motor release.
