I think they can be modified, with a couple of jack screws to better support the tables, aligning them with the planer base. I didn't. The infeed / outfeed tables attach easily to the DeWalt DW735 planer, but you must install them before you bolt the planer down to the table. ;-) That's not a complaint, but a note to future purchasers.The tables fold up out of the way easily, and can be easily removed and reinstalled, once the mounting studs have been installed in the planer base.The tables are useful as work supports, but they do not lie in the same plane as the planer's cast iron base. One more thing to do. They droop a little, meaning they do not provide the protection against snipe, that I had hoped they would.
The parts I ordered arrived on time and the assmbly was quick and easy. Great product and great service.
Like other review I expect a bit more for $50. I'm planning on taking mine off during storage OR while in transport, they are very easy to remove which is nice. and item that should have been included. The front table folds straight up but nothing is going to hold it there, rear table will only fold up to maybe 45degrees due to the table does not stick out from the rear as it does from the front.
The product is fine, and is needed for the planer. The aggravation is that it is such a necessary component that it should have been included by DeWalt as part of the planer package.
Too often there is nothing presented to the purchaser of a new tool about available options as with the Folding Table extensions for the DW735. Six inches longer for each table would also work well. Folding up only works on Power Switch side as I have my dust collection hose permanently attached. Works well, will never take them off.
