Makita Compact Router, 6.5-Amp, 1-1/4 HP, Variable Speed, Corded, 10,000-30,000 RPM

A compact router that gives you steady control and a clean cut without hogging space.

Variable speed for smoother work on the details that matter.

Product Overview:

With this compact router, you feel the difference right away. The Makita RT0701C keeps the body small, but the 6.5 amp motor still brings real muscle to the bench. If you are trimming edges, shaping a workpiece, or dialing in a fine pass, the variable speed control helps you match the cut to the job. Electronic speed control holds its pace under load, so the sound stays steady instead of wandering off. The aluminum motor housing adds a solid, no-nonsense feel, and the rack and pinion depth adjustment is the sort of thing you notice when you want the setting to land where you meant it. Simple enough. Tight enough. Good kit, frankly.

Key Features:

• Variable Speed Control: Dial from 10,000 to 30,000 rpm and set the cut to fit the task, not the other way around.
• Electronic Speed Control: It keeps the motor on pace under load, so the cut stays even and the tool sounds settled.
• Soft Start: Starts up smoothly, which takes the jolt out of the moment and gives you a calmer hand from the first second.
• Fine Depth Adjustment: The rack and pinion setup and easy to read depth scales make small changes less fussy, which is a real help.
• Quick Release Cam Lock: You can change depth or remove the base fast, then get back to work without a lot of fiddling.
• Lightweight Compact Design: At 3.9 lb., it feels nimble in your hands, so longer jobs do not wear you down as fast.
