I give up on belt sander year ago after several cheap one give I trouble to the point of toss they . I have be use a power planer since , until my wife suprise I with a new fridge that be 1\/4 '' too tall . the planer have a hard time get in tight . I get the 9903 and take it out to the shop to fine tune and learn it be personality . I do not need to ; plug it in , hit the trigger and it just track straight with the belt that be on it . it be a little heavy , but not so bad that I can not use it overhead . I be use to a lot of dust with these thing , but very little be not trap by the bag . a good buy out of the box .
