Is a Makita router compatible with an Ozito table?

I have a Ozito router table that needs a router. I purchased the Ozito plunge router but it was very much difficult to remove / replace bits.  Due to this I am looking at a Makita 1850 plunge router…Can anyone advise if the Makita will be compatible with table????

Re: Router and table

It has been solved. I can pull the chamber down enough if I remove the orange knob I can do it without the ‘third’ hand. Still fiddly but manageable…thanks for help to all you guys…I got a bit from all too achieve!!

Hi @Nailbag  and @MervynWh 

thankyou for your comments re homemade router table, I have since upgraded to a  Carbatec router table with wind up and down lift, so much easier to adjust the height of the router bit.

Hi @MervynWh 

 

It's good to hear that you've managed to sort out the bit replacement process for your router. I look forward to seeing the timber projects you'll be creating.

Nice work @JoeAzza I was avoiding recommending a non-Bunnings supplier 🙄. Carbatec among other machinery do specialise in a wide range of Woodworking tools and machinery.
