2Some problems  Jul 29, 2010
Just got this one on clearance at the local big box store for $99 this morning. My local big box store has the 10" but doesn't carry 8" disks, perhaps this is why its on clearance. Anyway, looks like a pretty good bench top unit and like to keep it but mine has few issues.

First, the table is not parallel to the disk or belt - it's off by 3/32" form one end of the disk to the other. Second, the disk also has a 1/16" runout. Third, there is a clunking/knocking sound when running - sounds like drive belt memory.

I'd left a message at the Hitachi technical department. Hopefully we could resolve this.




5Excellent Sander  Jul 08, 2010
I picked this sander up at a large home improvement store that "builds things together" with me. It was on clearance from $190, but I got it for $99.
Out of the box I noticed that the sheet metal base had been bent-in in a couple of places. I attributed this to poor handling rather than to a problem with Hitachi. It was easily straightened with some pliers.
It was very easy to assemble (or perhaps simply adjust) the tool, and it was up-and-running within 15 minutes. That included the time it took to locate some mounting hardware in my many drawers of screws and bolts.
The table was easy to square up to the disc, there does not appear to be any run-out, the belt runs true with simple adjustments, and the dust bag does its job effectively.
Overall, I highly recommend this tool.

5Better than Delta  Sep 04, 2009
I bought the Hitachi SB10Y to replace the Delta I had that failed after only about 2 years of intermittent light service. The Hitachi runs smoother and seems to have more power than the Delta. I expect that it will last longer too. The Delta uses a plastic pully that cant handle the tork. I would have repaired it but then I read that some people were having to replace the motor as well. So the Delta goes on the trash pile the next time the brush truck is coming through. And yes the plastic miter looks kind of cheap but it works well enough to give me accurate enough miters to make picture frames. So long live my Hitachi SB10Y and by by piece of junk Delta.

1Only one problem, but it's a big one  Jul 12, 2009
This is a beautiful machine and a strong design. There is one HUGE design flaw though... The dust collector on the belt keeps you from being able to use it for longer work pieces. This makes the machine not as useful as all the others on the market with the removable stop.

My money will be spent on either a Ryobi or Grizzly unit, and the Hitatchi is going back for a refund.
