Each guide has a guide sleeve attached to the motor housing and a guide tube attached to the base plate and slidably received in the guide sleeve. The lock mechanism has a lock disc rotatable between a lock position and a release position by a manually activated lever displaces the lock disc toward the unlocked position. The lever is pivotable about an axis parallel a guide tube and is located adjacent to a handle of the router so that the lever can be activated by the user while grasping the router handle.
