It's hardworking, reliable and reasonable—just three of the reasons you'll appreciate this saw. It's run by a gutsy 1-1/2 hp induction motor that drives the blade through even the toughest hardwoods without a shudder. The straight-on accurate Delta T-Square Fence System offers 30 inches of cut capacity to the right of the blade, plenty for even big projects and sheet goods. We like that the 40-by-27 table and two wings are cast iron, for durability and the stability you can't get with pressed steel. The carriage, too, is cast iron, and for you, that means no vibration and ultimate precision. The miter gauge is sturdy and easy to angle; it rides without play in the slot. Now, we know lots of you take off that blade guard the minute you get a saw, but it's on there for a reason—your safety. And this one's got some nice features, locking in the up position without wedging in some scrap wood, and when you replace the insert, it releases automatically. Designed for the contractor but equally at home in the woodworker's shop, this is a great workhorse of a saw.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

40 of 40 people found the following review helpful:  Great Saw, but let me clear up some confusion,, By jim@mindofmen.com (Boston, MA) - See all my reviews This review is from: Delta 36-680 10-Inch Left Tilt 1-1/2 Horsepower Contractor Saw with 30-Inch T-Square Fence and 2 Cast Iron Extension Wings, 120/240-Volt 1 Phase (Tools & Home Improvement) Like the reviewer below, I, too was surprised when I received a saw marked 36-670. I, too, called Delta and they explained that 36-680 is a package consisting of the 30 inch Delta T-Fence and the 36-670 saw. I'm not really all that concerned with reselling it - by the time I'm ready to step up to something bigger, this is going to be a pretty old saw.
Now, about the saw itself. First of all, I have not had any problems with it. It assembled easily (although the frigging thing weighs almost 300 lbs, so don't plan to be able to put it together all by yourself). The wings are adjustable, so it does take some doing to get it lined up just right, but I had no problems. I have been using it for a couple of weeks now and have made all kinds of cuts including some 45 degree angle cuts. No problems whatsoever. The saw does not bind or anything. One thing that I will agree with the other reviewer, though - for the price, Delta should include a dust bin, but you can...Read more 30 of 30 people found the following review helpful:  Good saw at a good price, This review is from: Delta 36-680 10-Inch Left Tilt 1-1/2 Horsepower Contractor Saw with 30-Inch T-Square Fence and 2 Cast Iron Extension Wings, 120/240-Volt 1 Phase (Tools & Home Improvement) I compared a lot of saws like the 680. Sure the 681 and 682 have nicer fences. But the T-square fence system is no slouch. The entire saw was accurate right out of the box. But beware, this saw is heavy. Purchase a mobile base, your back will thank you. Also trying to slide the saw around will put it out of alignment. After a week of sliding the saw around, the fence was now off by a 1/16 of an inch. The table top is all cast iron including the wings. This helps stabilize the saw immensely. The table top is nicer than the 681 and 682, which is not all cast iron. The only reason I gave the saw 4 stars rather than 5 is because the steel washer that holds the blade to the arbor bent very easily, and now it's a real pain to try and change blades.
Don't listen to other reviews about the saw being a 36-670, it is, the fence package with this saw is what makes it a 36-680. Anyone who does research on these tables saws will find that out. If your in the market for a very...Read more 22 of 22 people found the following review helpful: Set up hints, By RMW "RMW" (Colorado) - See all my reviews This review is from: Delta 36-680 10-Inch Left Tilt 1-1/2 Horsepower Contractor Saw with 30-Inch T-Square Fence and 2 Cast Iron Extension Wings, 120/240-Volt 1 Phase (Tools & Home Improvement) This looks like it will be a great saw, I certainly did a great deal of research before buying it. The following are some hints for set-up which I wish I had known.
1) The flat head screws used to attach the switch will be in the box with the fence & fence rails. 2) Have a large hex wrench, the supplied hex wrenches were not the correct size. 3) The belt attaches to the blade arbor by tilting the blade to 45 degrees. Also, the fence guard does not really hook-up & out of the way unless the blade insert is removed. Do expect to rezero the fence, and check square on all items. They were close, but not on target. |
