Description
The DEWALT DNP618 is a router edge guide accessory designed to help tradespeople and skilled DIYers make precise, repeatable cuts parallel to a workpiece edge. It attaches directly to compatible DEWALT compact routers and provides controlled lateral positioning of the router bit relative to the material edge. The guide spans 3 inches of adjustment range, giving the operator consistent registration without freehand guesswork. Measuring 11 inches in length and 1.75 inches in width, the DNP618 is compact enough to handle in tight work areas while remaining rigid during routing passes. At 0.84 pounds, it adds minimal weight to the router setup.
The DNP618 is suited for millwork, cabinetry, door hardware preparation, and general carpentry applications where edge routing accuracy is required. It is designed for use with DEWALT compact routers in single-base or combination-kit configurations. Carpenters, finish carpenters, and remodeling contractors working on job sites or in shop environments are the primary users of this type of accessory. It is sold as a single unit per package.

Installation Notes
Installation is typically performed by the router operator without specialized trade licensing. Power down and unplug the router completely before attaching or adjusting the edge guide.
