Tools and Hardware Reviews of DELTA 22-451 DC-580 20-Inch 5 Horsepower Planer, 220-Volt 1 phase

Customer Review: one greasy machine
Summary: 3 Stars

I purchased this item with the hope that I would be able to plane larger panels, especially after glue up. Un-crating and installing the machine on a HTC heavy duty rolling stand was quite a challenge as was removing the greasy stuff that was smeared everywhere. If you purchase this product be extremely careful when removing the grease as you cannot see all of the places where its hiding and if you send your hand or forearm near the cutter you may be injured. The grease is also packed around the cutter blades! After numerous attempts to adjust the segmented in-freed roller it continues to leave indentations on the stock. Delta customer service was of no help in offering advice to fix this problem so if you purchase this machine, you'll be on your own. I believe (but have not confirmed) that the individual segments of the in-feed roller are of different diameter. I was stunned that there is not a safety interlock that prevents the machine from being operated with the top cover open. In my opinion, this is not the machine for near finish work.
