Wood
ha
a quahty about
it that

you
to r ach

Freud
's
new
FT2000,
3-1/4
HP
Plunge Router
with 1/2 inch collet
has been engineered with your
needs for a safe and versatile tool
in mind. The mighty
3-1/4
HP
motor is the most powerful you
can buy.
When mounted under a router
table the Freud FT2000 can take
the place of a more expensive
spindle shaper.
Input
15 Amps
120 Volts AC
Horsepower
3-1/4
No Load RPM
22,000
Collet Capacity
1/4:'1/2"
Max. Plunge Depth
2-3/4"
Base Diameter
6-5/8"
The
Sliding Shaft Lock
makes
bit changing simple, safe and
easy. Only the
one wrench pro-
vided is needed.
This is especially
appreciated when
changing a bit
with your router
mounted under a table.
Four major features separate
the FT2000
f
rom other routers
and
make it a pleasure to
use!
The
Long Collet,
1-3/8 inch long
,
allows for a longer,
more even grip of the bit shank. This
decreases run out and increases
operating safety.
The
Micro-adjustment
Depth Control
makes accurate
vertical settings quick and easy.
An effortless turn of the knob does
the trick!
Safety
was an important factor when the on-off
switch and the plunge lock were designed! Both
were created with a downward
stroke to disengage each fea-
ture. The on-off switch is con-
trolled by the left hand and the
plunge lock is controlled by
the right hand
.
A 1/4 inch collet reducer and
collet wrench are standard with this powerful
machine. Optional accessories include micro-
adjustment parallel fence and set of template
guides. To get your hands on the FT2000, 3-1/4 HP
Plunge Router call us for the name of your local
Freud distributor!
Precisely what
you
need.
