Dislike the 'ratchet handles' on the tilt locks. I seldom use
them anyway.
No riser block needed, it will raise as high as the Griz did with
a riser.
Runs quiet with no vibration. With the cast iron wheels, it
takes a long time to wind down when turned off. Almost touched the
blade before it stopped, it spins so quietly and long. I have to get
used to that. (the long wind down--not the touching the blade).


always good to read about hands on experiences and quiet is most
always good


have not had my delta long but have never tilted the table and not sure
i ever will as it seems to be too close to being dangerous and not a
huge need to make that kind of cut anyway
