Well I guess I am just spoiled that way: ) I like having the control on the saw head not just going down but holding the head in place while moving the stock instead of lifting the head all the way up.
I must admit that in the EXTREMELY cramped confines of my TINY shop, not
having to lift the head all the way, all the time, would be a welcome
addition ...
Now I also can ADD weight on the saw head & not have to figure out how much weight I have on it I'll just adjust it with the hydraulics.
Hmmm, good point .. very good point. Add the max required weight all at once,
then adjust hydraulically based upon stock.
That still leaves my original query .. why do I require additional weight
whereas everyone else with seemingly identical machines do not ? ...
Oh well, I'm about to make another stand for mine, which will require a
complete disassembly. I'll stare at things then and maybe find a source
of friction currently unknown.
