ah - now there's a thing....I have a Ferm FBF-6E mounted on my router table - I also got it cheap off the bay second hand. I find that mine bogs down a bit with larger bits on the router table....I don't know if this is down to the Ferm router, or if mine is a bit long in the tooth.
The T4 is 850W as opposed to 550W so it should bog down a lot less regardless. As a comparison, the 440W Makita that I have doesn't bog down like the Ferm does - so maybe my Ferm is a little bit tired....I probably ought to strip it down & look at the brushes etc.
I looked into the T4 more yesterday - it seems to come with 6mm, 1/4" & 8mm collets so that makes it even better value for money....then I would get a spare plunge mount for my ferm so I can easily swap it out from under the table & use it by hand - could be a win/win setup.
