A New Tool Season

Plunge Router Allows Unique Adjustments

Bosch's new electronic plunge router, the 1619EVS. is the first to have features like a patent pending system to bypass the plunge lock and plunge spring for under-table depth adjustments, as well as an exclusive depth nod system that attaches to the base and allows for easy, precise adjustments on an inverted rooter.

Designed to perform in either hand-held or table-mount situations, the 1619EVS gets its power from a

HP. 15 amp motor with a variable speed range of 8,000 to 21,000 rpm. A 3'/*' base opening accepts large bits, while a 71f wide base provides stability on the work surface. Their Precision Centering design

keeps the bit in the router base on cut lines in jigs and templates regardless of the handle position.

Dual-bearing plunge posts are another exclusive feature of the 1619EVS, which also offers a toolless template guide adjuster and a dear dust extraction hood. Ergonomic features include soft start and soft-grip handles.

Street price for the 16919EVS — a January debut — is between $319 and $329. For more info, call 877-267-2499 or visa www.boschtoofc.com.
