Questions & Answers
Does this unit come with Bosch table base for Dewalt DW618 router?
Hi! Thank you very much for your question. No, the RA1181 Router Table does not include a Bosch or DeWalt router base. The package includes the featherboards, insert rings, clear guard, starter pin assembly, outfeed fence shims, and router mounting hardware. However, the RA1181 is compatible with the DeWalt DW618 router (fixed base only), thanks to its pre-drilled aluminum mounting plate. For further assistance, you may email us at bosch.tools@us.bosch.com or contact us at 1-877-BOSCH99 (1-877-267-2499) from Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. CST.
What are the differences between the RA1141, RA1171 and RA1181
Hi! Thank you very much for your question. The primary differences between the RA1141, RA1171, and RA1181 are their design and intended application. The RA1141 is a portable jobsite router table with folding legs for easy transport and storage. The RA1171 features a cabinet-style design that provides enhanced stability and improved dust collection, making it well suited for workshop use. The RA1181 offers a larger aluminum work surface, an extra-tall fence, and integrated accessory storage, making it ideal for users requiring greater workpiece support and versatility. For further assistance, you may email us at bosch.tools@us.bosch.com or contact us at 1-877-BOSCH99 (1-877-267-2499) from Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. CST.
Will the DeWalt DCW620 router fit
Hi! Thank you very much for your question. The Bosch RA1181 Router Table has not been tested for compatibility with the DEWALT DCW620 router, so we cannot confirm proper fitment. The DEWALT models that have been tested and are listed as compatible are the DW616 and DW618 routers (fixed base only). For further assistance, you may email us at bosch.tools@us.bosch.com or contact us at 1-877-BOSCH99 (1-877-267-2499) from Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. CST.

Has Bosch fixed the issue with insert rings on this router table? Most reviews I've read state the rings are not thick enough and thus cause material being routed to get caught and damaged.
Hi! Thank you very much for your question. The RA1181 Router Table is designed to provide support for a variety of routing applications. If you have questions regarding the insert rings, their installation, adjustment, or use in a specific application, we encourage you to contact us directly so we can provide guidance based on your setup and intended use. For further assistance, you may email us at bosch.tools@us.bosch.com or contact us at 1-877-BOSCH99 (1-877-267-2499) from Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. CST.
What is the maximum distance setting between the router bit and the fence
Hi! Thank you very much for your question. The fence facings should be as close to the router bit as possible without being able to come into contact with the bit. Typically, about 1/4 in. (6 mm) from the bit is considered a suitable distance. This helps provide proper workpiece support while maintaining safe clearance. For further assistance, you may email us at bosch.tools@us.bosch.com or contact us at 1-877-BOSCH99 (1-877-267-2499) from Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. CST.

15 Amp Corded Variable Speed Combination Plunge & Fixed-Base Router Kit with Hard Case
The Bosch MRC23EVSK 2.3 HP Electronic Modular Router System is an advanced set-up that provides a fixed base and a plunge base for the MR23EVS router. This system allows for outstanding operator control, with the trigger-control system that has a power switch in both the plunge-base's and the fixed-base's handle. The plunge base's Afterlock microfine bit-depth adjustment at any plunge setting allows for precision, with an adjustable turret stop makes it easy to set any cumulative depth. With a smooth plunge action and a spring-lock plunge lever, this router gets accurate results. The fixed base has microfine bit-depth adjustment, with a continuous depth range of 1-5/8 in., allowing for accurate and fast changes, while its precision-centering design allows the bit to be centered with the sub-base or optional template guides. The router has a 15 Amp motor and adjustable speed settings. The variable-speed dial allows the operator to match the speed to the material. Constant Response circuitry delivers a constant speed throughout the cut. Users can glide along the intended cutline using dovetail fixtures, templates, jigs and other guidance devices.
