- Reviewed in Canada on April 21, 2019Verified PurchaseThe most disappointing point about this item is that there is no information provided here about what routers - makita routers this will work with. Fortunately it worked with my oldest 1 hp router with 1/4 bits and works well but would not connect with any of my other 4 routers, including a makita 1/2 bit plunge router, dewalt 3 hp, triton 3 hp and a bosch.
Works well with the Makita and Festool tracks. Don't know about any others.
If you are looking for a list of routers - go to the Makita web site, track saws, tracks and track accessories image. On the picture for this guide, there is a list of current Makita routers that it will work with. Hope that helps.

- Reviewed in Canada on June 8, 2020Verified PurchaseI bought this router adapter since I have a Makita track. I also own a Dewalt 611pk and the adapter fits the plunge base very well. The adapter also comes with two bolder rods and two height adjustments brackets (showing in the first picture and third picture) so that you may use it with a larger router for materials with different height.
However, I dropped 1 star for the following reasons:
1. expect the rods, all parts are PLASTIC. At this price, I was expecting something more durable.
2. I don't prefer the mechanism behind the rail grove adjustment. The adapter just used two screws to force the plastic edge bend to make the adapter fit the rail(see the sec pic). It actually works but I have no idea how long it is going to last and if it would be affected by temperature a lot.
Besides, the adapter only comes with 5 konbs. 4 holds the rods and 1 for the height adjustment. If you want to secure your router, you need additional konbs or screws.
In sum, this is a good addition to your router if you have a Makita rail. But if you have experience with metal or aluminum working, I highly recommend you DIY it.

- Reviewed in Canada on January 24, 2025Verified PurchaseVery handy with the small router but runs on the rails a bit loosely.
- Reviewed in Canada on February 2, 2018Verified PurchaseIt is great for my needs. Problem is it doesn't come with any hardware to connect the router to the actual adapter. I had to use a wedge. Pretty annoying. Contacted makita a few times with no help.

VustadumasReviewed in the United States on January 25, 20205.0 out of 5 stars Fits DeWalt 618pk
Verified PurchaseHaving several Makita guide rails and several routers from many manufacturers, I found a need for a router guide for my 118” Makita rail. I ordered this hoping it would fit my Festool OF1400 or my DeWalt 618pk.
The Festool, I knew was a long shot, and yeah, no dice. The DeWalt “fits”. You have to offset the rods into the guide, meaning one rod uses the small rod hole, while the other uses the large one. I was unsure this was ok at first. Everything checked out and was square to the rail. After several test cuts, it most certainly seems to work.
I wish Makita was more clear on which routers can use this guide. Luckily, it worked out.
