DeWalt DW618 Guida per l'amministratore
2Kronos Robotics Dewalt DW618 Super-PID Conversion
Tools Needed For This Project
• Phillips screwdriver
• Flat head screwdriver
• Wire cutters/strippers
• 1/8” Drill bit
• Hot glue gun
Other Items Needed For This Project
• White acrylic paint
• 14 GA extension cord (25 foot)
• Regulated 5v power supply with hookup wire
• Super-PID
Tip
You can get a regulated 5v power source a from your PC via the USB cable or from one of the hard
drive connectors inside your PC. The connector will have four wires.
Yellow = 12V
Black = GND
Black = GND
Red = 5V
You will want to use one of the black wires and the red wire.
The following two links are power supplies that can also be used.

Prerequisites
You will need to cut the 25 foot extension cord. Cut the plug (male) so that it has about 40” of cord.
Strip about 2” of the outer layer of the two cut ends revealing the individual wires. Strip about 1/2” of
the insulation from each wire.
You may want to remove the lock ring from the router. This is a requirement of you want to attach
an AirExchanger to the router later.
To remove the ring, remove the three screws shown in Figure 1. Once the ring has been removed
you need to re-attach the screws, as they hold the spindle in place. Notice that I had to insert two
3/16”washers on each screw.
You should also download the Super-PID instructions. They can be found here:

Step 1
It it best to work on your router after it has been mounted on your CNC. This will keep the business
end pointed up while you perform the conversion.
Start by removing the cover. To do this remove the four screws, then lift the cover off, as shown in
Figure 2.

Step 3
Remove the controller, switch, and cord connector from the router. These will all lift out. There is a
black wire connected to one of the brush mounts. There is a red wire connected to the other. Pull the
connectors off of each mount. Every thing should lift out.
With a small paint brush, paint the ring just under the bearing. Paint half way around the ring, as
shown in Figure 4.

Step 5
Attach the sensor end of the cable to the plat form using hot glue. The goal is to get the sensor as
close to the white mark as possible without touching. Before gluing refer to the hookup in Step 6. Use
the SuperPID to help you get the perfect angle. Once you happy with the position glue it in place and
hold until the glue is hard.

Step 6
Connect the sensor cable to the Super-PID. Attach a regulated 5v power source to the Super-PID.
Rotate the spindle on the router slowly. When the sensor passes over the black portion of the painted
band, the display should indicate a low reading as shown in Figure 7.
When the sensor passes over the white portion of the painted band, the display should indicate a
high reading as shown in Figure 7.
Adjust the sensor as necessary to achieve
these readings before preceding to the next
step.

Step 7
Using hot glue to hold the sensor cable in place, twist it around as shown in Figure 9. The cable
should exit the router at the point where the old switch was located.
