From the Manufacturer The capacity of a stationary unit with the convenience of a portable saw. Accuracy is achieved through the telescoping rack-and-pinion fence design which ensures the fence stays parallel to the blade at all times. The fence extends to a full 24-1/2 inch rip capacity. Enough to rip 4x8 sheet goods. A 13 amp high-torque motor provides the power to cut pressure-treated lumber and hardwoods. Includes a 10-inch carbide blade that delivers 3-1/8 inch depth of cut at 90 degrees and 2-1/4 inches at 45 degrees. Features a dust shroud that can be attached to a shop vacuum or dust collector system. Table top has a smooth surface with a durable coating that won't scratch materials such as melamine or laminate, while the large 26-1/2-by-19-1/4-inch surface provides ample material support. Includes DW7440 Table Saw Stand. One year warranty, One year service contract, 30 day no-risk trial Amazon.com The first thing we look for in a table saw--portable or otherwise--is an accurate, smooth-working fence, and the telescoping fence on DeWalt's 10-inch portable table saw impressed us immediately. Fully extended, the fence delivers a 24-1/2-inch rip capacity, letting you cut to the center of a 4-by-8-foot sheet, while the rack-and-pinion design lets you make microadjustments fast and accurately. We also liked how the fence rides on both the front and back rails so that it's parallel to the blade at all times. The telescoping rails retract, too--when the job's done, the saw is easy and safe to transport. Like most 10-inch portable saws, DeWalt's has a 3-1/8-inch depth capacity at 90 degrees and a 2-1/4-inch capacity at 45. The 13 amp motor cranks plenty of torque and doesn't lag when cutting hardwood or pressure-treated stock. Performance aside, DeWalt clearly also kept safety in mind when designing this saw. Its oversize on/off switch is positioned so you can easily bump it off with your knee if you get into trouble making a cut. The arbor on Dewalt's saw also has the capacity for a full dado stack. Add to that the saw's dust-collection hookup and sturdy steel stand, and you've got a portable table saw that can hold its own in the shop. --Jon Groebner |
