Hi MikeWood
I have one mounted in a table it's the 1700 model, it's a great router for the router table, the one you have is made to work in the router table right out of the box ,it can be adjusted from the top side of the table and because the model number you have they made the motor shaft longer so you can change the bit from the top side of the router table.
The one I have I can do the same but I used a offset wrench that will let me do the same , plus you don't need to remove the springs from the Freud because it can be adjusted so easy from the top side.or the bottom side..one of the nice things about the Freud is that it's thiner than most routers that's a big help if you want to pop it out and used it for your plunge router with the nice big base plate on it...and the handles don't stick out as far as most routers do..
I just got one more or to say I should have it in a week ..
I also have a Hitachi 3 1/4 HP and It can't have the handles in place because they stick out to far to get it in the 11" sq. hole in the table top...
As far for the tips you don't need them so to speak it's a great router,one small tip you don't need push router at it's high speed, I run mine at the number one or the number two setting most of the time it has all the power you will need at the low speeds,,,...
