The JessEm Rout-R-Lift II is not a single universal clamp. JessEm sells five versions, and choosing the correct model number is part of compatibility. This guide maps the published router families to the correct Rout-R-Lift II version.

Which Rout-R-Lift II should you order?
02310 covers the common Porter-Cable 690/890, DeWalt 610/616/618 and Bosch 1617/1618 families. 02311 is for Makita 1101, 02312 for Hitachi M12VC/KM12VC, 02313 for Milwaukee 5615/5616/5619, and 02314 for RIDGID R29302.
Do not confuse Rout-R-Lift II with Mast-R-Lift II
The two JessEm lift families have different compatibility systems. A router supported by the Mast-R-Lift II is not automatically supported by every Rout-R-Lift II version. For example, JessEm explicitly lists Milwaukee 5625 and Porter-Cable 7518 for the Mast-R-Lift II, while the current Rout-R-Lift II page does not place them in its five published model groups.
Before ordering
Check the router’s exact model label and then order the corresponding JessEm lift version. This avoids relying on motor diameter alone.
Useful next step: compare your router across all researched lifts in the WoodToolGuide Router Lift Compatibility Finder.
