Pivoting Router Lift OFL3.0 and Suhner Motor Starter Set - US Blue Edition

Sauter OFL3.0 Blue version Pivoting router lift and Suhner UAK30 RF SPZ-L Starter Set

Unique Lift packet especially developed for the North American market with a powerful router motor fully compatible and compliant with the 120v / 60hz power grid

This kit is your gateway to the world of router tables. Our patented swivelling Sauter router lift offers unrivalled precision and endless new routing possibilities. Easily cut mortices, bevels and even skewed grooves at any angle from -5° to +50° with the pivoting vernier scale. Common angles such as 15°, 22.5°, 30° and 45° snap into place effortlessly.

Compatible with a range of popular router tables including Kreg, WoodRiver, Woodpeckers and Harveys, or customise your own to suit your needs. This lift/motor combination is a versatile addition to your woodworking setup.

Using a motor and lift in your router table provides much more flexibility and precision than using a plunge router mounted in a table insert. It simplifies standard tasks and allows you to shape narrower boards, straighten board edges, trim edges and perform various other woodworking tasks. Router tables improve the accuracy and efficiency of all router-related operations. They also enable operations typically reserved for a shaper, such as edge shaping, hinge making, dado cutting and a range of woodworking tasks beyond the capabilities of a stand-alone plunge router.

Manufactured in our factory in southern Germany, these lifts embody the region's tradition of exceptional craftsmanship. The robust motor, sourced from the renowned German company Suhner in the Black Forest, is world renowned for its quality and is favoured by German car manufacturers.
