The Grizzly 1023SL table saw arrived yesterday. The driver set it right outside the garage. I didn't know how easy it would be to put on the hand truck or piano dolly, so I tried to lift one end. Couldn't even rock it. That surprised me until I later realized that I was standing on the pallet that the saw was bolted to. I got off the pallet and it moved much easier.
Today I began to set it up. Everything fine so far. I'm very impressed with the machining and the paint job.
I hear about how long it took to take off the waxy grease. It took less than four minutes. I found the secret. I used minieral spirits as the manual recommended. The only difference was we are having a little heat spell out in Riverside California and the garage was over 100 degrees. I guess that softened it up a bit. It could be a different story if I was doing the same thing in a winter in Minnesota at 40 below or so.
