BOSCH 1617EVSPK Wood 12 Amp Router Tool Combo Kit - 2.25 Horsepower Plunge Router & Fixed Base with a Variable Speed Motor

Hi I bough this router as you know it’s 120v so I contacted Bosch only to be told that this router can’t be used in the UK and they do not supply a transformer as the router is 60 Hz can you help with problem

The router's voltage is 120volts and the frequency is 60Hz where as in Ireland our voltage is 230volts and the frequency is 50Hz so the appliance won't work properly in Ireland. It's not compatible with our electrical supply. I have requested a return

Still one of the best routers on the market today. The design hasn't changed for the best part of a decade, which says a lot about the ergonics and capabilities. The kit gives you the option of a fixed or plunge base, together with a powerful, variable-speed motor. 1/4" and 1/2" collets are provided to give you more choice of cutting bits. Two spanners tighten the nut to hold the router bits in place. Much better than the routers with the annoying button to lock the motor while you tighten with the other hand. The fixed base is compatible with the Bosch router tables, and a key is provided to adjust the cutting depth from the top! The carry case is nice and sturdy and has space for the optional extras, like dust extractor and fence, as well as slots for your router bits. A real versatile bit of kit for your workshop or whenever you need a clean cut that a jigsaw just can't deliver. I've bought cheaper routers before, only to have them die on me, or the cooling fan explode from vibration. With Bosch you get fantastic quality at a very reasonable price.

Excelente equipo para trabajar en carpinteria.

What is the key feature that makes this router especially useful for some tasks compared with others I own? It's the depth setting adjustment, shown at the left side of the first image. It covers a wide range with fairly granular control of the depth steps. Why is this useful to me? This current project is a good example- speaker cabinet front panels fabricated from hard rock maple ply. This is serious stuff for power tool woodworking, cabinet grade MDF is like butter or cardboard in comparison. So, it's pretty mandatory when doing a deep route to use a number of shallow steps and a slow feed. This fixture makes that very straight forward, and very repeatable when doing multiple routes of the same dimension (second image, routing cut outs in progress for the inner front panel of an LF module for a high end speaker system. It's easy to calibrate for a consistent starting point and getting very exact results for a number of operations. Now, no router I've found is the perfect router for every job. This Bosch tool is very well built, has excellent torque and speed control, and with the additional fixed base can handle a variety of jobs. Where some might find it lacking is having a comprehensive dust collection feature built in with a clear dust dust shield over the working area, like some DeWalt and Porter Cable 1/2" shank routers I own. But that same dust shield can limit the utility - specifically, the depot of plunge for the router, and the depth of cuts. Here, on this project, I'm working with 1-1/4" maple ply and 1-1/2" maple ply, and doing cuts between 1" and 1-1/4". This isn't possible with the routers featuring the dust collection and dust shields, because of the limit these place on plunge depth with multiple passes. This is why I tend to have multiple routers chosen and setup for specific jobs, and leave them that way once things are dialed in. I have three of the Bosch 1617EVS now for that reason... two with plunge base setup, one with fixed base. The other thing I have found very useful with this Bosch model is the accessory template guide adapter and templates. Here are pictures of the base with the template guide and a short adapter for 1/2" solid carbide spiral up cut bit installed, in the "baseline" position and extended. One of the 1617EVS is always setup with this adapter. What I find the fixed base configuration useful for is trim functions using follower bits of various types- from setting the rebate for a high frequency driver after boring the original hole with a Forstner bit, or trimming a side or inner route flush using a 1/2" shear trim bit. I have jobs for which this configuration works better than my 1/4" shank trim routers.
