10″ BLADE: For maximum cut capacity

RACK & PINION FENCE: The Rack & Pinion fence is easy to adjust and reliably square, with a built-in high and low face that supports all kinds of cuts.

QUICK-TILT BEVEL WITH MICRO ADJUSTMENTS: Quickly and easily tilt the blade to your ideal angle with just one hand. The micro-adjust feature provides the ability to dial in a precise cutting angle.

SAWSTOP’S PATENTED SAFETY SYSTEM: Stops a spinning blade on contact with skin. The blade stops in less than 5 milliseconds, and drops below the table, minimizing a potentially life-altering injury to a mere scratch.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. Dado stacks are much heavier than a standard table saw blade. The forces created in the retraction of a dado stack require much larger and heavier drivetrain and structural components than can be accommodated on our lightweight and portable saw body. We recommend our JSS Pro table saw for users that require dado capability in a mobile package.

The main differences you will find on our Compact Table Saw (CTS): o Lighter weight at 68 lbs. for the saw body vs 84 lbs. on the Jobsite Saw (JSS). o Max rip capacity CTS 24 ½” vs JSS 25 ½” o The CTS is even more portable with an easy-carry handle, whereas the JSS has a built-in mobile cart o The CTS has a rack and pinion fence vs JSS has T-style with ergo lock (self-squaring) o Multi-turn blade elevation on CTS vs JSS has the one-turn elevation o Standard blade guard on CTS vs JSS has dust collection blade guard o CTS is a direct drive motor vs JSS having a belt driven motor o The CTS is not able to support the use of Dado blades

We have not published the HP of the CTS as a spec because we have found there is a lot of variability in how saws of this class specify their motor power – which can be both misleading and confusing. The CTS has a 15A, direct drive motor that is comparable to other top competitors’ saws in this class.

They are aluminum faceplates, and they are not replaceable

The insert for our Compact Table saw is made of glass-filled plastic

No, the inserts for the Jobsite saw will not fit the Compact Table saw and vice versa.

One of the legs on our Compact Table Saw can be adjusted to accommodate uneven floors.

Our CTS saw has a direct drive, universal motor

The motors on the Compact Table Saw and the Jobsite Saw Pro are not the same. The CTS uses a direct drive motor, whereas the JSS has a belt drive motor. There are several advantages to a belt drive motor including noise and vibration suppression.
