Anyway the router was operating at a lower speed setting and suddenly
it went to full speed. Turning the speed control dial had no
immediate effect but eventually the router went back to the set speed
with no other issues. It has done this every time since that day. I
use this router to spin raised panel bits but do not want the router
to go full speed speed when do int that.

Sounds like the triac in the speed control circuitry has shorted.
Take the router to someone who knows electronics, and have it fixed.

Actually, one can also contact Triton: http://www.tritontools.com.

If it went back to the intended speed, then it's unlikely
the triac (or anything else) has shorted. More likely
there's a capacitor in the speed control circuit which
is failing. Or, possibly the connection to the speed
control dial has become intermittant(*).

In any event, the suggestion to have someone knowledgable
in electronics look at it isn't bad. Altho the most
likely thing a tech would say is "replace the control
board" which might cost almost as much as a new router.

design would fail safe, by going to minimum speed, not
maximum)
