Super well put the web page
A summit 16x60 has graced my shop for over 15 years. The features and standard equipmemt and build quality combine to put it at the top of the heap in a repair shop or production environment. My total repairs in all these years has been one shear oin for the threading lead screw which was fault and one adjustment of the forward clutch pack. My only regret is that I didnt purchase the 80" bed.
