John, I think that can be said of most tools...they require a little work to get them "right". I love my G0691, but I had some issues at first too. I ended up having to take the top off and ream out the mounting holes in the base. Not a big deal, and in the end I'm glad I did it because I learned a lot about the saw that I would otherwise not know. And if a problem ever crops up, I know how to go about getting to it to fix it rather than come here and moan, which I guarantee you I would do. So keep your chin up. You will get it where it needs to be, and you will be better off for it. Jim.

No, I'm not an electrician. Any information I share is purely what I would do myself. If in doubt, hire an electrician!

At a minimum, I'm Pentatoxic...Most likely I'm a Pentaholic. There seems to be no known cure. Pentatonix, winners of The Sing Off, s3.
