Hey Wade, doesn't your arm stay up on your EX21? The ones I have worked on do!

My EX21 is going on 6 years old and I don't have a problem with the arm staying up.  I use it every day.

Good to hear you got the EZ Lift, GB.  You're going to enjoy having it.  I'm even starting to do some bottom feeding myself now that I have mine.

Just got home from working at the polls! LOOOOOOONG day!
Stopped for a snack and a beer with the 'supervisor' and discussed who will not be requested for the next elections!
We had a 53% turnout in a precinct that normally runs about 12 to 18%!

Will report 'sometime' Wed. on Easy-Lift!

From:  GrayBeard

RE:  Easy-Lift Upper-Arm Support System (as installed on DW788 Scroll Saw)

Degree of Difficulty:  Beginner through Expert User

Installation Time:  Any 'mechanic' SHOULD be able to have it on in about 7 minutes which includes reading the rather poorly printed "Directions"

Quality of Materials: Very Good

Additional Comments:  Works like "Hand from Heaven" for one whose hands and shoulder are becoming increasingly less manageable due to arthritis and other 'age related' maladies! This unit works most effectively when feeding blades from the 'bottom' of the work piece. I will be going to prison tomorrow and will try the 'top' feeding procedure on Friday and report at a later date.

Hi UPS34. I was not aware the EZlift was made for saws other than the DeWalt. Did you check to see if it would fit?

Love it.. It is wonderful. You were right Gray Beard. Instructions are poor. Simple to install. But it sure helps feeding the blade.
Thanks for the tip on buying this add on.
