INCRA/Woodpeckers PRL-V2 Lift (PC 890 & Bosch 1617/1618)
The concept is like nothing else: To raise or lower the router quickly, the quick lifting tool disengages the lift's mechanism and the spring assist allows the heaviest routers to travel freely along the lift's 3-1/4" range of travel with very light effort and no cranking. The router's collet can be raised above the table for bit changes in two seconds!
The quick adjuster provides the speed, and the tool-free micro adjust provides the finesse. After the router bit height is in the ballpark, no tools are necessary for fine tuning. A large thumbwheel embedded in the lift's top plate is instantly accessible for micro adjusting anywhere within a 3/4" range of micro adjust travel. The micro adjust travel indicator dial is graduated every .002" and can be reset to zero. A carriage brake is also available right next to the micro adjust thumbwheel for locking the carriage during extended cutting.
As with our custom JessEm Mast-R-Lift, the PRL-V2's top plate is a super flat Blanchard-ground casting that's machined to accept INCRA's unique MagnaLOCK reducing ring system. The top plate's 9.250" x 11.750" dimensions make it a perfect fit with every INCRA Router Table. The laser-cut steel rings are securely held in with powerful rare earth magnets for super fast ring changes, and a simple leveling system guarantees that the rings will snap in absolutely flush with the surrounding plate. The MagnaLOCK system is simply the most convenient, best performing reducing ring style available. Includes five reducing rings for great variety right out of the box: 3/8", 1", 1-5/8", 2-5/8", & 3-5/8".
Compatibility: The PRL-V2's massive, one-piece carriage comes equipped with one of three available sets of motor mounting pads. This version comes ready to accept the 2hp motors from the Porter-Cable 890 series routers and the Bosch 1617 & 1618 fixed base routers. Optional motor pad sets are available to convert the carriage for use with some other fixed-base routers from Bosch, Porter-Cable, and Milwaukee.
