I purchased a grizzly planer G0453Z 5 years ago for about $2,500. Right from the start. the gearbox was leaking oil, but not bad enough that I wanted to pull apart the gearbox and fix it. Now it is leaking moderately getting oil on the side of the machine and on the garage floor. The parts I need are a gasket and an o-ring total price for both $4. But, for these parts which could be put in an envelope and sent with a stamp, they want $9 to ship it and they would not waive the charge. I should have done something while it was under warranty, so that's on me. But if you look at the internet, 90% of the complaints are of leaking gearboxes, so the company is well aware that this is a problem. A good company would have sent me the parts out at no charge. We're talking about $4 for $2,500 machine. I was ready to buy a $3,500 table saw but I will never buy anything from this company again.
