## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does anyone know if this plunge base will fit the cordless DCW600 compact router?**
A: Yes, they fit perfectly. I took a chance and  bought the DNP612 to use on my DCW600 cordless compact router and, unless there's something I'm not seeing, they are compatible. I wish they'd just tell you that in the specs. Last time I looked, this info wasn't really available.

**Q: Es compatible con un router dcw600**
A: This is compatible with the DCW600 router.

**Q: Has anyone tried to work this on a dwe6000?**
A: I have not; however, the diameter of the 6000 appears to be the same as the 611.  Id you are able.  Bring your 600 to a local hardware/home improvement store that sells Dewalt and see if the base of the 611 fits the 6000.  if it does, the DNP612 should work.  The body of the 611 just sets down into the plunge base and does not thread, so the threading is not engaged.  The base just clamps onto the body of the router.

**Q: What routers does the dnpP612 fit**
A: Compatible with DEWALT; compact router DWP611

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very handy to have with palm router
*by A***L on 8 May 2025*

I’ve needed my palm router recently and needed to be able to plunge to a set depth repeatedly and cleanly. This housing made that really easy. Fits well and is very well built. Wish I’d bought it much sooner.
