For starters, the saw's 1-1/2-horsepower induction motor delivers impressive power, smoothly and quietly, so it's perfect for curve cutting, but the saw isn't going to bog down when ripping hardwoods, either. The saw's nine-spoke wheels deliver more accurate tension on the blade, minimizing vibration. The heavy-duty cast-iron trunnions likewise minimize vibration to the blade. The lower blade guide on this saw rests only 3/4 inch below the table, which greatly reduces deflection in the blade and provides cleaner cuts.

The hinged pulley cabinet makes it easy to access the wheel for blade adjustments and changes. The closed base reduces noise and keeps dust off the motor. To cap it off, the saw comes with fantastic extras, including a rip fence, for resawing, and a mobile base--an absolutely indispensable accessory for a woodworker with a small shop. A 1/4-inch platinum pro blade and 4-inch and 2-inch dust connectors are also included. --Jon Groebner From the Manufacturer Delta advantages include a computer balanced 9-spoke wheel design versus a competitive 6-spoke design.
