Dewalt d24000 question

[Rikcardo]

Hi
Can any one tell me the difference between the new and old models please, as I bought an Imer Combi 250va which has been back to the factory 4 times and still isn’t right so they have given me my money back and am looking at the Dewalt now.
I have asked the question here in Spain and none of the suppliers know if they have the new model or not?

The main visible difference is where the main arm bolts to the base. The old model had just 4 bolts which were known ( so i am told) to twist if not tight.
The new model will have the 4 bolts plus 2 pegs front and back which locate into holes in the base preventing the twist.

i spoke to roy at dewalt and he assured me that the only difference between the old model and the new model was

1. the new model came with a newer improved blade
2. the new model was fitted with a larger flange to prevent any blade wobble

i have the older model and he sent me out a new flange and blade to compensate..
thats all i was told. tt said the side extension had extra steel bolts fitted but mine had them and roy said there was no difference...

hope this helps

And the trip isolater is new and the bigger flange on the blades to stop wobble and porcelain blades rather than the normal ones..

And yes .. neale is right.. better locating bolts on the arm... and yes Roy from Dewalt told me that..

Hi
Thanks all for your Quick answers, how much bigger are the new flanges and I take it you are all pleased with you Dewalt’ s as I have been looking at a few others like the Rubi DW250NL, the Husqvarna TS73R to name two.

Hi
Looks like I mite go for the dewalt because of its weight at only 32kg, just hoping it is as good as you guys rate it.
one thing I see is tiletrader say it cuts 660mm and Dewalt UK say only 610mm or was this only the MK1 info and web site not up dated.
