Dewalt Recalls Table Saws Due To Laceration Hazard

A table fence saw is used to make precise cuts while helping you remain safe as you cut the wood or other materials. A hybrid table saw is offered at a lower price while still providing users with some incredible features incorporated in the design of cabinet table saws. However, don’t let the size fool you, dewalt tools as this model is equipped with a powerful punch. Despite its small size, it’s equipped with a rip fence capacity of 12 inches to the left and 20 inches to the right. Thus, you are provided with the top ability to work on several different projects. However, the device doesn’t offer an accurate miter gauge.

Whether you’re building bookcases or framing your own garage, adding this prized power tool to your arsenal can speed your project along in a major way. Most professionals will opt for a contractor table saw, which is built for keeping in a shop. This type of saw has a heavy-duty motor and sturdy build. But if you want something that is portable with a heavier capacity, a job site table saw may offer that happy medium. Contractors who want the best of the best go for a cabinet saw, which has a much larger working space and huge rip fences. I never anticipate that a jobsite saw will have a fence that clamps parallel at the measurements specified by the guide.

I also just like the overall build quality of the DeWalt. The built-in stand, as well as the saw body itself, just seem more rugged and stable. The rack-and-pinion fence on the DeWalt gives this saw repeatable accuracy, cut after cut.

The designer made sure you can’t do that with the rip fence on the Hitachi saw. Between #2 and #3, with the fence locks engaged, with one finger I can move the fence left and right about 1/8”. Worse yet, I can move the front of the fence one way 1/8” and move the back the other way by 1/8”. For the kind of work I do, this might as well be a mile.

A vast majority of users said that they do like their new heavy-duty tool, but it has limited capabilities. Therefore, professionals aren’t particularly happy with it. On the other hand, DIY-ers love its versatility and an envious level of safety mechanisms.

Additional features are not in short supply with this model, which makes the device more user-friendly. One exceptional quality is the top 2-inch dust port collection system. This system is designed to attach a vacuum cleaner to make the cleaning up process easier and quicker. The new DeWalt cordless table saw runs on a brushless motor and a FlexVolt 60V 6.0Ah Max battery pack. DeWalt claims this pack has three times the power of one of their 20V Max packs.
