About two months ago I bought a Porter Cable 375SS at Lowes. Seemed like a reasonable choice given likely usage and budget. Initial use was to cut about 50 cardinals from 5/16" balsa - not a real tough assignment. The problem and question:
Seems to me that there is excessive lateral movement in the blade. On downstroke, blade shifts slightly to right; at beginning of upstroke it shifts left. It looks like it does this worse at low speed than high, but I can't really measure it. Took it to B&D service center and they seemed to think it was all normal.
Last night I videoed just what it's doing. https://www.hightail.com/download/dD...MVgrV3hBSXRVag
So, is what I am seeing "normal"? What if any problems am I going to encounter?
