Dewalt 849X Question ????
Hey everyone,
Just picked up a Dewalt 849X today.......Awesome
The soft start has a burst of speed then goes back to
dialed in rpm. It helps picking up a bead, is that what
they intended? I can't think of any other reason.
The dust/lint filters are cool, since I like using blended wool
My first victim is going to be a 40' RV, can't wait

And pretty light, my shoulders
were sore from the RV but a car
would be no sweat.

You want to call them on the outside, one on each
Side to trap wool,fuzz from getting into the machine.
I have used super cheap polishers, Makita's, older Dewalts and test drove a few Flex models and I have
To say for the price it's like driving a Cadillac.

I actually love the Makita. I've never even felt the desire to buy something else. I've always wanted to try a Flex. But the new Dewault sounds interesting. Maybe I can convince a buddy to buy it so I can try it, haha.

I currently own the "X", the older dewalts, makita, dynabrade buffer (not DA), MILWAUKEE and the flex PE-14 as well as a few other buffers. I was thinking about doing a comparison write up soon on them. Any interest in that?
