During edge routing, much of the router base may extend beyond the workpiece, leaving the machine with limited support and increasing the risk of tilting or wobbling. The LAS-OF 1400 provides an enlarged running surface that supports the router securely and allows it to glide smoothly along the workpiece. Its maximum 63mm aperture accommodates large router cutters suitable for use with the OF 1400. An integrated chip deflector directs chips and dust towards the side extraction area and is held securely in position by three magnets. The deflector can rotate through 360°, making it easy to reposition when routing shaped components, working around corners or approaching the workpiece from different directions.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"definition-products\"\u003e\r\n  \u003cstrong\u003eStable router support when working close to an edge\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n  \u003cp\u003eThe enlarged support surface compensates for the portion of the router that extends beyond the workpiece during edge machining.
