I bought this rolling stand for my new Delta Platinum Edition Contractor's saw. Putting the thing together only took a few minutes as the product is welded together. The construction on my stand was perfect, each welded seam showed no defects. The only thing you have to do is put the wheel locking mechanism on.

The wheel set moves easily and was simple to level. I would suggest having a second person available to help lift the saw into place.

If you are planning to buy the extension kit, wait until you have both this set and the wheel set opened. You will have to use the long wheel retraction lever in order to properly operate the wheel base. It is located in the extension kit box only.

I ordered the Delta 10" Contractor's Saw (36-680) and this base to go with it. Both Amazon and Delta's websites say this base fits 10" Contractor's Saws- total BS. The base of the saw is 25" x 28", the mobile base measures 25.75" x 23.25"... waaaaay too small. Now I have to hassle with the repack & return in order to get one that fits. And all this after having to wait nearly 3 weeks for delivery in the first place...

I bought this for my Powermatic 64A 10" Table Saw and it fits perfectly. Mine has a foot pedal instead of the bar, but I like the foot pedal ok. The 3 wheel design with a single raise/lower mechanism and outriggers to level is so simple. That's what won me over from the HTC and Powermatic mobile bases. The HTC has 2 pedals, which is unnecesary (they also look weak), and the Powermatic requires you to lock down brakes on individual wheels, and the castor could still swivel, just silly. I would highly recommend this mobile base. A small hint to install, loosen all the bolts on the table saw stand so that it can "walk", then lift each corner pulling (or pushing) the leg out (or in). I had mine installed in 5 minutes.

Beautifully designed, simple to set up, this mobile base is strong and maneuvers nicely. Had I known how great this is and the mobility it provides, I would have ordered it years ago.
Took less than 5 minutes to assemble, (one bolt) then was able to tilt my HEAVY saw (without assistance) to place the Delta mobile base under the feet of the table legs.
One observation... the foot pedal will stay in the "roll" position ONLY after the saw is on the base. Hard to believe how they did this and just how simple and effective this unit is.
Looked at the Rigid unit in Home Depot - very happy I decided on the Delta.

I wish I had purchased this years ago. I just bought Delta Mobile Bases for my table saw, band saw and drill Press. Will soon be buying one for my planer. Great product, well made, moves easily and stays put when the foot pedal is not engaged. Highly recommend.

I bought this 50-277 machine base, plus the 50-284 extension (ASIN B0000223CH) to use with my Powermatic 64 tablesaw, which has the 50" fence and table. I was a bit worried about whether this part was properly sized for the Powermatic 64's foot dimensions, but it was just fine.

It's exceedingly easy to raise and lower the third wheel.

With the third wheel lowered, it is pretty simple for me to move the table saw around my limited garage floor space. The garage floor (cement) is divided into 4 sections, and the base allows me to roll the machine over the recesses between sections without much difficulty. When the third wheel is raised, I feel pretty comfortable that the machine will not be moving while I'm using it.

This product fit my saw perfectly and moves smoothly.Delta 50-277 Mobile Machine Base for 10D 15d

This base would work fine except the one sent isn't large enough for the saw to sit on. When I ordered the bench saw, it was suggested to buy the base at the same time and save money which I did assuming the person filling the order would be sure to match the base with the size of the saw. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to set the saw up within 30 days, so cannot return the base for "full refund."

I will likely move my saw frequently in my little portion of the garage I carved out for a shop and this base will make my life easier for sure. The base itself is solid as can be and easy to assemble in nothing flat.

I have the Delta 36-507X X5 Contractor's Saw with Biesemeyer 30" fence and can also highly recommend the Delta 50-285 extension.

Enjoy!

Same as previous. 36-680 does not fit on this base. I hade to go and but a universal base and will be shipping this one back.
