Personally, I think it is stupid to have the customer spend a couple of hours doing what the factory could do in 5 minutes. Wrong. *good leg folding mechanism.*work supports and stop are pretty goodminuses:*IMO, doesn't really work with the C10FSH.
It's that having to do this work is totally unnecessary and would add $10 to the price.In the end, a pretty good universal saw stand, once you suffer through the assembly. This problem can easily be fixed with a plywood adaptor, and I'll probably make one. I guess I assumed that Hitachi would design the stand to fit properly with Hitachi saws.
I bought this UU610 to work with a Hitachi C10FSH.pros:*pretty stable. It's not that the assembly is *hard* - it's not. I just expected more from Hitachi, especially for $240.
You can't position the saw to balance it properly.*this is really an erector set that looks like a miter saw stand when you're finished. This is compounded by the fact that the directions are awful, pictures, no words.
This one today still performs as well as the day i got it. It is surprisingly light weight for the sturdiness, strength and durability it has.I had looked at many others, and even compare it to others at job sites and still have not found one that I thought was better. I was worried the saw might be too much for this stand, but I was wrong.
The stand has worked better than expected. I can certainly say it is built very well with strong locking legs, a sturdy top frame and arm extensions. I bought this stand a few years back on Amazon and am now reviewing it.
I use my DeWalt 10" mitre saw which seems like a perfect marriage with this stand. I highly reccomend this product. I have taken it on many jobs doing work with Habitat for Hummanity, as well as use it in my shop and at home.
Being tossed in the bed of my pickup probably caused more damage to my truck bed than to this thing.
This is a very wobbly stand and not sturdy enough to work safely with.The ridgid stand is much more solid,although heavy,but well worth the money.This stand is definitely not worth $219.The ridgid stand is on sale now for $99 Purchased this stand about a year ago and should have returned it but I didn't.
Both add-ons are included in the box. Guess What. Isn't life grand. Just bought the Hitachi UU610 stand (Tracrac). Didn't think the wheel kit or the entension stop were necessary.
Good for Long term set up. fairly hard to get built - setup first time.(plan on a better part of a day)2. getting to the locks on the arms can be a pain if you have the ext set so the lock is under the saw. It's an ok unit. Hard to find one on back.4. Has wheels so you can leave the saw on and transportdown side of it.1. came with wheels but no handle (though a standard cabinet handle lines up, all I had to do was use a spacer so you can get your hand on it)to sum up.if you want light weight, fast, light, easy setup and brake down get the dewaltIf you want a nice stable shop stand that you can move if needed, If you can set up on a site in one place, get this.
very heavy.On the up side.1.This thing is solid. when you unlock it the arm twists/sags so the material isn't flat.3. arm in or out. 10" slider stays in place.2. May times while working I need to quickly slide the ext.
fairly heavy duty. can't leave extensions unlocked because they sag. (lost a saw on Dewalts do to not fully locked in)3. not so good for daily set up and brake down. The locking system is faster and safer than Dewalt's.
