It is very solid never any movement. When one side gets dull just switch the blade around and it's like new.

I am sorry for my late response. I have an Oster with a fixed blade, so that is all I can answer questions about with confidence. Sorry!

I wouldn't really call it wobbling. But if you don't hold the wood down tight , it jumps up & down. I don't think that top thing does anything for the blade but cover it. It is not as steady as a band saw. If you are going to be cutting something that needs to be precise I would use a band saw. If it is something that is not prefect the blade runner is good. It reminds me of a table saw with jig saw blade. Hope this helps.

I have not experienced any of the wobble. I do not regret buying ... Straight, and easy cuts, quickly.

I've done various bread mixes and shredded veges, with no wobble at all. I am using the heavy glass bowl that came with it. Not sure if that helps. I LOVE my mixer!

Check to make sure the blade is installed properly. It's easy to get the blade just off center and that will cause a really bad vibration. Other then that, it's a 2 stroke. After using it for awhile your hands will feel funny when you stop.

Yes, I just got my bike and the seat wobbles a lot. I crammed some cardbd in where it appeared to be wobbling, but it only improved a bit. Does anyone have any suggestions???

Please unscrue the two scruse on the back of the blades, when you do this then you will see 4 small scruse! Tighten them down and you shouldnt have any more poblems,

To me its got the feel of a butterfly knife, and it looks like a stiletto knife, and with the little piece it opens almost the same speed like a switchblade I think. I really like it but is the blade suppose to have a wobble in it if not then I need to get it fixed.

The lower wheel was a tiny bit out of true. The blade that comes with the saw (5/8") rode perfectly on the wheel. But when I changed to a 1/4 or 1/8 inch blade it started riding on the outside of the wheel. Customer service walked me through the process of getting that straight. Customer service was friendly and helpful without being condescending. Also we looked at the brand of blade I was using. Also it turns out that Timberwolf blades did not work well on the saw. What we saw was that two blades the same width had way different tension settings when installed on the saw. I hope that helps. The lower wheel was a tiny bit out of true.

All I can say is that the blades should move end to end not back and forth/side to side. I have not had this problem/issue so I cannot say for sure what to or not to do. Good luck.

Actually, there must be something extraordinary taking place. I am using the clamp as you mentioned and it is a relatively tight fit without a lot of wobble. There is supposed to be a brass/bronze bushing in the hole in the clamp, if it is no there then it would be very wobbly.Hope this helps.

Joseph Question when the blades are fully locked onto the shaft, the blades still rattle?? Sounds like there's a gap most likely due to the head not fully screwed onto the shaft, did you receive the blade tool with your package use it to apply the broad head. If no examine the clip make sure it is in place between the head and shaft, Mine do not slip nor raddle Keep me posted I'm interested in what is creating the bouncing blades. TY

No thats why I purchased it since I had two good batteries. However I am not 100% happy with this unit. When you need to push hard on it when doing a plunge cut the blade turns under the pressure. I checked to make sure the blade was securley tightened in place and it was. Not a big problem just don'e push real hard on it.

When I first got the saw, yes there was a lot of side to side wobble. I pulled the plastic strips the saw runs on off and placed them as far apart as possible. The saw is now rock solid when it's on the rail. Another change I made was I cut out about 1" of the spring that holds the saw in the up position. This still holds the saw up but drastically reduces the wrist fatigue when using the saw. It makes it much easier to hold down when reaching across a 4' wide sheet. (Check out https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=vqqcmC5UY5E) After making these changes, I have absolutely no regrets in purchasing this saw. I'm much happier with it than a homemade edge guide and a standard circular saw. Hope this helps. When I first got the saw, yes there was a lot of side to side wobble.

Oops...I hit "enter" too soon. To install the blade, you have to retract the blade guard, pull it up and away from the blade housing as much as you can (the guard is a little flexible), then wrangle the blade in and lower the blade guard. Stupid, but true.

On mine, he blade carrier just easily lifts up...you might have some sticky substance under the blade carrier that is acting like glue. I would try a steady upward pull; too much twisting might break the post.
