Hitachi Adjustment:

This knob is much better than the origional. The origional design is flawed. It broke by just setting down the router. You only move the router up and down a small amount and it works great for that.

Why did I buy this item?:

I purchased this item, when it was offerd at the time I purchased my Hitachi M 12V, and spent an additional $25.00 plus shipping and handeling on it. Today I received my new router and found a very similar "Fine Adjustment Knob" in the box with the other attachments provided. I wish Amazon would not have suggested / offered this item seperatly, when it was already included in the package I was purchasing.

Not-fine adjustment:

If you are purchasing this item because you want micro adjustment, save your cash. This knob is threaded onto a coarse threaded rod. In my world, the word micro means 'very small'. A fine threaded rod would have been better here. In my review of the router itself I mention this as well. Replace the threaded rod with a fine threaded rod. Buy a couple of nuts to fit it and a knurled knob. Bam... in comparison this would be a micro adjustment knob. Also, if you are using any taller bits, the micro adjustment... more info

A nice adjuster:

This came with my Hiatchi M12V, which I got here at Amazon for a very reasonable price (Home Depot's price was $50 more!). I use this adjustment knob when the router is mounted in its table. I removed the plunge springs to keep them elastic. Although not a perfect system (raising all the way up takes a lot of rotations!), it definitely is better then trying to fight the springs with one hand and hold a square in the other!
