This is an accessory that will take your OF 1400 to the next level. I had my concerns at first about all of the router weight and torque on the end of a long lever possibly binding and causing bad behavior. I was wrong, it is indeed accurate and the micro adjust is awesome once you figure out a technique. Just got done routing a 32" long 1/2" deep groove for miter track in workbench. PERFECT! The trick to accuracy is tighten to the rail so there is zero slop (even though it is tight slide) and move fairly slow. Also be sure to push the guide more. Just support the tool with your other hand.

If you're making dados with a router this is essential

I bought this to cut dado's in large pieces that are too unwieldy for the table saw. It works as you might expect - easy to setup and get micro adjusted for perfect fits.

So much easier with this system for making custom cabinets with dados, great add-on for the router, just wish it was included for the price.

I've used this setup on my 1400 router and a rail to make super precise dados, it takes a moment to setup and you need to tighten guides to minimize play, once you dial it in and get used to it, it makes your router so much more versatile and precise!

If you are invested into the Festool system, this little handy accessory is a must have for the OF1400. Paired with my MFT this guide stop is perfect for precise dados.

This is a must have for your Festool router. Easily adapts your router to the guide rail to make long straight cuts for dados. The micro adjustment is awesome because for anyone who has ever cut a dado, you know that material thickness is always different. With the micro adjust you can really fine tune your dado for an absolute perfect fit everytime.
