Makita 194733-8 Dust Extracting Nozzle with RT0700CX3 Plunge Base

I purchased this one for the plunge base and the other one for the fixed base. They are both easy to install and surprisingly effective. It lets you get close enough too see the fine details without throwing chips in your face and getting everything covered in dust. It also keeps your marking lines clear enough to sneak up to them, because debris isn't covering them. My only wish is that they were offered together.

Although my dovetail/finger joint jig has dust control, this will work well for other uses.

This device is a little delicate so the vacuum hose should be suspended to avoid sideways pressure. I found this worked great with a mortising jig. Almost no chips at all. However in slab leveling with a big slot the air blown from the router blew chips everywhere before the vacuum picked any up.

If you own a makers router don’t skip on this it makes for a cleaner shop

Added this to my knock off Makita router's plunge base. Fits perfectly. Picked up more chips and dust then I expected when I first looked at it. Use it for dado's, shelf pin holes. and loose tenon like domino's.

Es buena

First of all, it's annoying that you have to buy it at all. Thia should just come with the plunge base. That aside, the hose attachment is slightly larger than the one for the standard circular base, so you need yet another adapter. It's flimsy, and the way it attaches to the router is flimsy too. The hole in it is ridiculously large as well. No one is using a 3" bit in a trim router.

Some reviewers seemed to have issues either installing or with the performance, I did not have issues with either. I’ve found that if you get a little static build up of the shavings inside the cover and have trouble seeing, it is best to use a dryer sheet to reduce the static. When i used the router without the cover I had shavings ALL over the place. With the cover it collected 90 percent of them. I’m pleased and it arrived quickly to boot !
