HTC Brett GuardJul 05, 2009
By R. Farmer
I had used another table saw that had a Brett Guard installed and liked the way it looked and worked without interfering with the actual cutting. I have always been less than satisfied with the manufacturer's guard that came on my Delta saw. The Brett Guard is robust. HTC didn't cut any corners on material.
Like some others reviews, I had some trouble with assembly. First, the written instructions are not much help. They refer to figures (in another part of the manual) that are stick diagrams with no specifics.
Assembly had a couple issues. First, both the lock nuts for the sliding support rods would not thread into their sockets. I had to tap and lubricate the threads to make them work. The same is true of the holes the rods slide through in the guard housing. They are very tight and will not allow the rods to freely move. I believe that both issues are the result of the powder coat which was applied to the housing after it was milled. It appears that either some coating got into the holes or they did not allow for the thickness of the coating and it reduces the ID of the holes making support rod insertion difficult. A little reaming out and lubricant again fixed the issue. For $219.00 this should have slid together with no issues.
I do like the fact that the housing was powder coated. This will also make the guard very durable and long lasting. Overall the guard looks to be very good and from a safety perspective very hard for someone to have an accident with. Looking forward to many years of use.
