The DeWalt DW744XRS features an exclusive, telescoping fence delivers 24-1/2" rip capacity without sacrificing portability. A rack and pinion design makes fence adjustments fast, smooth and accurate ensuring that the fence is always parallel to the blade. The saw features a 15.0 Amp high-torque motor with the power to cut pressure-treated lumber and hardwoods while electronic feedback maintains blade speed during difficult applications. Soft start allows blade to come up to speed without jumping and a heavy-duty internal motor mechanism which stabilizes the arbor, keeping vibration to a minimum. Telescoping rails retract within the saw top for easy portability and 2" Dust Collection Port easily connects to a vacuum for efficient dust extraction. A 26-1/2" X 19-1/4" table surface provides superior material support.
