Hi Harv and welcome. If it was meant for 2 spanners then there will be flats on both the collet nut and the armature shaft just below it. I’ve never heard of anyone on this side of the pond owning one. They were supposed to be a very good router and although old there are quite a few still in service.

Thanks for the reply's guys... Very helpful..
Cherryville... im actually in the UK so their not so rare here. lol, sorry forgot to set my region before.
DesertRatTom... Thanks for the guide, very useful to me as i start to think of beginner projects for my shed.
JW2170... i found this file only already and NO it doesn't seem to have a spindle lock like the 96.... but i think Chuck was right with the 2 spanner option. not just need a spanner i havent got .. hahaha
Just converted my little 6x4 concrete shed into a bigger 16x4 workshop... No electric as yet but will have in the future when i can afford it..
Build my 1st workbench, at college. Teachers were awesome and let me take time off my Cabinet build to use the machines and converted 50 year old stud timbers into usable timber.. (Wood came from a friend who demolished the local Police Station to develop into flat and gave me all the usable 4x2's he'd ripped out. Then at college i jointed and thicknessed them, tenoned and mortised and glued and clamped the hell out of it.)
Also had a go at french Cleats using various timber i had lying around...
