    Routers - Trend T8EK or Makita RP2303FC

    Hello. I did not return it. I did contact the company where I bought it and explain everything. They told me that they try the same router but 110V (they was out of stock for 220V) and after 2 min of just spining its get very hot as well. They told me if I wish I can send back the router. I then...

    Didnt think about this. There is return policy, it allow 14 days aftet i receive it. Its been 5 days already so i have another 9 left. Thats why I was hoping someone with same router if experience the same thing so i know is normal or not. But think if the router is heating the bit, the bit may...

    I got answer from them already : Hi Viktor. This is heat transfer through the armature during use & not detrimental to the operation of the tool. Regards The company where I bought it. They try the same test with 110V as they dont have currently 220V. They've told me that after couple...

    Yes, its clear. When i remove the nut, i can see the locking pin which usually you puah it, it has long way to the threaded armature which holding the bit and the nut. Was watching couple videos about bearing, to see what is look like. Doesnt look the same, as when I turn the router there is no...

    Thats answer I get from person in email. It is answer on my question I send to Makita support center through email. Doesnt sound correct in my opinion. Today after inspecting the router again I hear something which i dont hear on my other Triton TRA1 router. Just by hand if you spin the bit on...

    Definetly something wrong with it. I pull out the collet and the nut and i turn the tool on to spin freely. Underneath if i put my finger i can feel the air which is pulling from top is pointing downwords to the bit. I can clearly feel the air is cool, the threaded rod where the nut is attached...

    The router has 12.7 p The bit i use was 12.7, Trend roundover bit. I had 10 of them as i ha e Triton router mounted in table which i build. Its seems strange as i can run my Triton for 30 min and the collet and nut wont have any sign of heat. Its strange there because even without Bit inserted...

    Do you have problems with that Makita router? The model is RP2303FC. I get it brand new, and after I turn it on, in 2-3 minutes, just by spinning, when I switch it off, the nut and the collet are extremely hot. Does that sound familiar, or is mine faulty? I do make a small roundover with a 12.7...
