Hi I have been given the Porter Cable 7519 router and have moved to Sydney Australia which is a 240volt power supply. Here in Australia they sell 240v 110v Step Down Stepdown Transformer Converter 500w which has the following features:Stepdown Transformer Convert from 240V to 110V Rated power: 500w Input voltage: AC 240V with fuse protector Output Voltage: AC 110V 2 x 110V output sockers with printing On / Off switch LED power on light Fully Earthed SAA approved Australian Plug with certificate No. 22063 Now I am wondering if this will work effectively on the 7519 router. Thanks John

you were given it because it was junk
fixing it will be a waste of time and money
the overheating indicates burnt out wiring in fields or armature

If you bought through paypal which is part of EBay you should find if the product has been misold i.e.supplied not fit for purpose such as incorrect voltage for your country then a refund should be in order.the next stage is to email bay's resolution centre who will then start the ball rolling.however there usually is a period of time that has to elapse after the purchase date before you can begin this process.don't ask me why, one of those silly eBay rules.there is a guy who sells a similar product on eBay who is famous for his books on juicing and it is 240volt system.other option is to buy a step down transformer to enable this USA product to work without burning it out.

A collet reducer or 1/4" collet may be available from service centers

No, in this case, it is Lefty-Loosy, Righty Tighty. Hope this helps!
