Abstract
A router includes a motor unit and a base that receives the motor unit. A threaded shaft is supported on either the motor unit or the base. A slide is supported on the other of the motor unit and the base. The slide engages with the shaft in a first position of the slide in which micro-adjustments to a cutting depth are permitted. The slide disengages with the shaft in a second position of the slide in which macro-adjustments to the cutting depth are permitted. With a lever in a locked position, neither macro-adjustments nor micro-adjustments are permitted regardless of the slide being in the first position or the second position. With the lever in a micro-adjustment position, only micro-adjustments are permitted with the slide in the first position. With the lever in an unlocked position, the lever disengages the slide from the shaft to permit macro-adjustments.
