Description

The JessEm Rout-R-Lift Prestige allows the user to mount the base of their plunge based router motor to the carriage with the minimal height loss (14.5mm in total). Made from the same high-quality products as JessEm's Mast-R-Lift II and Excel II, the Prestige offers customers another lift option for the workshop.

The direct-drive rise and fall mechanism works via a metric screw and gives endless years of accurate and reliable service without the issues associated with poorer quality belt or chain-driven drives that tend to clog, work loose or snap over time.

A robust cranked handle operates the double bearing spindle from above the table with great precision and ease. The positive winding action is measured by the metric scale built into the router plate’s surface giving very accurate incremental calibration of the rise before ultimately using the same cranked handle to lock off the mechanism. Both the height adjustment and locking mechanism are located towards the front edge of the router lift plate, meaning you won’t have the hassle of having to move your router fence to make adjustments when in use.

The 9.5mm thick-cast, precision ground and anodised black solid aluminium top plate is very strong and flat and will not flex or bend in use. The plate measures 235mm x 298mm and will accommodate large diameter cutters up to 90mm. All JessEm plates come with their own levelling system allowing for perfect alignment and levelling and fit our own JessEm and INCRA table tops or use our router insert plate template for home-made tables for a perfect fit.

The router plate and fixing plate are low profile but to make your original router even better you can use it with the MuscleChuck for above the table cutter changes.

Please note: Please only use the supplied fixing screws that are individual to your router, for users with the un-drilled version of the Prestige lift without fixing screws should contact their router manufacturer for further details on suitable fixings.

Excellent!

No surprises

As per the other reviews, this router lift is superb!
The only thing I would add is that the pre-drilled version does also support the Hikoki M12VE !
It's a bit of a faff if you want to have a remote switch as I did (the router has a safety feature which prevents it from starting if the switch is in the 'On' position when power is applied) but it's a fairly simple fix.
Can absolutely recommend the Rout-R-Lift Prestige !

Exemplary Build/Engineering….but tight fit for Makita….

Outstanding concept beautifully executed. However, a word of caution for Makita owners. The router’s plastic baseplate cannot be discarded, which reduces available access to its shaft lock button, and limits the height of the bit chuck above the table for changing bits. Fitting a Musclechuck solves both niggles - but at a price. Otherwise, a great leap forward in routing fun!

JessEm Prestige Router Lift

This lift belies it's pretentious name by excelling in every area. I am downsizing my workshop, to suit my future needs, and substituting my Felder Universal with smaller equipment. I hadn't used a router lift before and called for advice. Peter recommended the JessEm and I placed the order which was fulfilled promptly. They called later and advised me to use a WWWS steel shim to prevent the levelling screws sinking into the table, which was added to the order.
As a Rolls Royce trained engineer I know quality engineering when I see it and I was highly impressed with the lift when it arrived. Adjustment within fractions of a mm is made possible by an anti-backlash mechanism on the lift, a feature missing from many. The rise and fall screw is controlled by a pair of pillars on that side to prevent racking in use, a frequent cause of difficulty and inaccuracy in lesser designs.
I am currently in the process of making a Multi Function Table with accommodation for the lift. This will allow a work surface larger than my previous spindle and the flush top surface will not impede other work on the table. All controls are accessed from the top and I hope to incorporate my existing router dust shroud beneath.
I am really looking forward to using this new setup and have no hesitation in recommending it to others.

Excellent Service

"The technical support and customer service I’ve received has been truly exceptional - world class and especially nice given it’s a rarity these days."
