There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
When I opened the box and read the instructions, they said that the saw was fully assembled, except for the table. This was not true. The bevel guide and knob assembly was not attached, but packed separately, and there were no instructions as to how they went together. After reading other reviews where the writers complained that their knobs arrived broken., and remembering that my old Dewalt had also arrived with a broken knob (which the company quickly replaced) I realized that somebody must have decided that the knob was subject to damage in transit if it was attached before shipping, so they have taken to packing it unattached. It was a bit of a hassle figuring how to assemble, but there were only four parts to figure out, so it didn't take long. Better to take a bit longer to assemble than to have to wait a week for a replacement knob. Attaching table was easy, just slide it into place and fasten two bolts.
Once assembled, I could see that the Delta saw was not the same machine as the Dewalt. It is very similar, but there are some differences. First the table is round and wider than the Dewalt. The blade holders are almost identical and hold the blades quite firmly. One big difference is that there is a locking pin that holds the upper arm raised when moving or changing the blade. On my Dewalt, I had to either pay extra for a device to hold up the arm, or make some kind of block to hold up. The Delta also has a covered compartment for storing extra blades. What it looks like to me is that someone at Delta looked at the sales Dewalt was getting for their saw and said, " Okay, we can make one just as good, but with a few improvements, and sell it cheaper."
After one session using the Delta, I have to say that, so far, it is just as good as the Dewalt. If the prices were the same, I would have a hard time choosing between the two. Both machines are top of the line in the mid price range. I haven't used any of the thousand dollar price range machines, so I can't say anything about their quality, but, if you have been using an inexpensive 16" saw and are thinking of upgrading to something bigger, this would be an excellent choice. You will be amazed at how much easier this saw is to use.
I have two suggestions that I hope will be a help to you.
1. The best and easiest way to attach the flexible air hose is to dip the end in a cup of very hot water for about a minute and then it will push on very easy. Simple solution
2.There is a small adjustment that needs to be make to the angle degree marker under the table. This is best done with table removed and front blade guard off. There is a slot that the degree marker plate slides in when you adjust it.This degree plate is secured with one small screw and is adjustable but not enough to set the angle properly for zero degrees. It is a design flaw. So remove the small screw and degree plate. Use a 1/4 inch round file and file the slot on the left side 1/4 inch further left with the round file. It should take you about 5 minutes or so.Then reinsert the degree plate marker and install it will the one screw (not tight yet). You will now be able to adjust the cast iron table to proper zero degrees (use a small angle level to make the table 90 degrees to the scroll blade) and the zero degrees on the degree plate can be set to zero (now tighten the screw) and the table will be completely accurate at the zero degree marker,and for any degree you set the table for thereafter. I still gave it a five star because I love it. Oh, also my father really thinks it is a great machine as well.Alan Doucette
Got this today. An hour to set up and mount on the table. Compared to the Sear's, there is no comparison. Functions very much like the more expensive Dewalt, which I am thrilled I didn't buy.
The #1 reason I bought a better machine was for the ease of blade installation. It is fantastic! You don't even need to see much.
The machine is quiet, smooth, very nicely made, well boxed, and even more of a bargain with the ez installment payments.
The only criticism I have is, the guard for the blade does not sit squarely on the machine. Does not seem to be something that can be adjusted or bent.
See how it works out over the winter. I expect to get a lot of use out of this.
