## Questions & Answers

**Q: I have the dw618pk. i am assuming that is short for pack and dw618m is short for motor? looking for a backup for my current set. will this work?**
A: Correct. The DW618M 2-1/4 HP EVS Fixed Base Router Motor with Soft Start is powerful for routing smoothly through tough hardwood at the user's desired speed.

**Q: Does the power cord come with the motor only**
A: Power cord and collets included

**Q: where is this unit made?**
A: From Wikipedia “ In December 2013, DeWalt issued a press release stating it would be bringing some assembly of a small selection of their products to the United States using globally manufactured parts from Brazil, China, the Czech Republic, Italy, Mexico, the United Kingdom, and the United States. The products assembled in the United States would be branded under the label, "Built in the USA with global materials."

**Q: Will this motor fit the older 618 bases?**
A: So I asked a similar question about this on Amazon and got a lot of answers after I took the time to research this router and on the dewalt website (and here) I found that the m of 618M stands for motor. So if your old base went with the 618pk (fixed and/or plunge base) you should be good. I sunk my original router into a sawstop router base and bought this motor to use with the bases so I didn't have to unmount the router I put in the router table.
