I understand that the 7330 does not have an automatic tension, while other models (like the 7325 does). Does this lack of functionality matter?

I've never had a machine with automatic tension. I've never noticed a need for this feature. This is a very good, basic machine. It will last for years and years. I am very happy with it.

The hydraulics beneath the foot pedals on my unit require a lot of effort to depress - I find that I really need to be standing to effectively make use of the full range of motion. Even when I tweak the tension adjustment, for me, I still need to stand to depress the pedals fully. (It's definitely small and portable and lightweight enough to schlep to the office to try!)

I have a craftsman 5HP Model 580.762010 and it bolted right up. My only complaint is that the inlet is very close to the handle rail and was a knuckle buster. A 45 degree hose fitting cured that. It seems to put up a lot more pressure than the old pump. It did not come with a key. Had to run down to Lowes for one since the old pump had the key built in. You cannot adjust the output pressure like the old pump. Considering the price it was worth the small hassle of buying a key and a 45 degree fitting. I would buy it again.Biggest lesson learned-- Do not loan out your power tools, even to relatives :) I have a craftsman 5HP Model 580.762010 and it bolted right up.

You have to have one of tension lines connected. If you don't it won't slide back.

Simply, No. Sorry. You should also know that I'm not thrilled with it; in fact, very disappointed. It doesn't generate enough resistance to be worthwhile, despite the highest "8" setting. And when I tried to contact the manufacturer to ask about any additional, internal (i.e., inside the mechanism) adjustment possibilities, they never responded.

No tensioner is included. Mine was fine and didn't feel the need to replace it. Also the bypass gasket is not included. No local auto parts stores had them in stock so I made one from some gasket material

Yes, there are significant differences. The 735 is a sturdier machine and is suitable for more heavy-duty work. The 734 is more of a hobbyist's machine. I had a plane that was similar to the 734, made by Delta and I sold it in favor of the 735. My biggest reason was the cost of blades. You can buy professional quality carbide blades for the 735 and not for the 734. For me, that was a big deal. Also, the 735 has an auxiliary fan that helps to remove the wood chips. The 734 doesn't. I've been splitting cedar boards to make planks for cooking salmon and the 735 planed them beautifully.

I think the answer to your question is best handled in the 733 product description. Mostly what I can see is that the 733 has a larger display, is backlit, and has a few extra settings (wild boar, etc.) I have the 733 and am very happy with it. Personally, I really don't see much benefit to having lots of different meats programmed (although some might like it) - I personally prefer to set to my own preferences, or just let it show me the raw data. The last time I used the 733, I smoked two turkeys for thanksgiving. I used one of the probes for the interior of the smoker, and the other in the turkey. I found it especially helpful to know exactly what the pit-oven was doing, and found myself going out every 20 minutes or so to adjust the temp, something I have done much more sporadically before. I watched the turkeys carefully, inserting the probe into the turkey closest to the heat, and taking it out immediately upon reaching temp. I then inserted the probe into the other turkey, which was furthest from the heat, and had only a short time before I took it off as well. Alternately, I could have used one of my older single meat probe thermometers, but I was spoiled using the remote device. BTW - never had a turkey come out so perfect!!

yes, it does jiggle. The really old models with the 3 stripe pressure gauge did not, but these seem to. Hope that helps

hmmm no, probably you know this already but you can adjust the height, try making it lower or higher , or reducing the tension , might help, but I use it all the time , no problem so far

Mine were "old stock" from a "clearance seller", so came with old style tensioners. I believe current stock comes with the "good tensioners with yellow plastic clips" (which I got later). I'll use "old style" tensioners as backup.

The tension knob MUST be aligned properly in the hole before tightening or it will NOT seat properly. It took me 4 tries before I got it seated properly and quite a few turns before it tightened enough to increase the tension.

There is a T handle screw on the top and you can adjust it to change the tension. I usually leave it at the same tension all the time because that is what I'm comfortable with, but some may want to adjust it. I love it - works well for me.

Before I returned the exerciser I realized that the tension knob really didn't tightened and I turned the knob until I couldn't turn it anymore...still no tension. I purchased the Stamina 55-1610 InMotion E1000 Elliptical Trainer. I should be receiving it tomorrow 08/09/2014. Cost more but I'm willing to try it. Hope this helped.

No. I just talked to a tech a DeWalt and he said from what he could see none of the newer models have the trigger lock. Blame the lawyers is our guess. Since I'm shopping for one I can use for buffing and sanding it looks like I'll be shopping for a refurbed or slightly used older model. Or another brand.

The short answer is - I don't. I have it in a place for use, but because the unit has no tension knob, which I didn't know before I purchased, I'm not using it...a total waste of money and space. I'm actually trying to give it away.

I have never own a 733 but I have the 788. It not bad. I think it should not much of a difference. Just go to youtube and check it out.
