Just finished setting up my new saw in the garage. I haven’t run it yet as I have to run 240 Volt power line over to it yet. Everything on this saw seems very heffty and well built. The built in router table should be a big plus. I’m looking forward to turning this thing on to see for myself what it’s like! I know some of you guys already have this saw and from what I hear from you is that your pleased with this model.

Make sure to get it running before the warranty runs out, Grizzly does have some issues with QQ. -- --Tyrone - BC, Canada "Nothing is ever perfect, we just run out of time."

I read the manual and they said use WD-40 on the top and I’m assuming a lot of “wax on-wax off” elbow grease. What other tips for a new owner you got? -- Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most..... Twain

The 1023 has plenty of power but I have been a little let down with the dust collection hose behind the blade. Even with a big Oneida Pro 2000 sucking the chips out, the hose seems to be easy to clog. Otherwise, a good performer. -- David www.TheBoardSMITH.com
