Title: Tracking, Dust Collection woes.
Review: I have a bear of a job I'm working on-- stripping a deck. I thought the DeWalt, being big and built like a tank would be more than up to the task.The tracking only works in one direction-- it pushes the belt out.. but over time-- waste that collects on the drum pushes the belt out-- and there's no way to correct. I always wind up shuffling the belt back on the drum.Trying to clean it-- the drum lock bolt broke off on first twist with a screwdriver.The dust collector-- it worked great at first with a festool collector attached. Then-- it must have gotten plugged up inside and I can't clear the tube. The drum can't come off because the bolt broke.Another dust annoyance-- the housing that connects to the vacuum pops off at the slightest jolt. A big powerful tool like this needs better attachments.There's a ton of power here- and with the right engineering-- this would be a winner. But I can't recommend with the flaws. Choose another.
