Power & Motor

Both table saws are corded, run on 120 V, and draw 15 amps. Standard U.S. residential circuits are 120 V, 15 A, which will support either of the products.

Both saws have motors that produce 3650 rpm. Don’t pay too much attention to these numbers, because the manufacturers measure them under no-load conditions, and they don’t have a useful impact on the saw’s real-world ability to handle different material.

Blade Compatibility

Both table saws accept 10” diameter saw blades and have a 5/8” arbor. 10” is the most common diameter of table saw blade, so you should be able to find a huge assortment of blades for any purpose. Most 8-to-10” blades have a 5/8” arbor hole, so this size of arbor maximizes blade compatibility.

Both products take dado blades up to 13/16” thick.

Size & Capacity

The 4100-10 can rip up to 25” on the right of the blade and has 8 1/2” of rip capacity on the left side of the blade. The 4100XC-10 has 30” of rip capacity on the right. As a rule, more rip capacity is better, but it often also means a larger, heavier saw. Think about how big of rip cuts you’ll be making to help choose the right size saw for you.

Both saws can bevel up to 47° and can cut up to 3 1/8” deep at a 90° angle. The 4100-10 can cut up to 2 1/2” at a 45° angle. The 4100XC-10 can cut up to 2 1/4” deep at a 45° angle.

The table on the 4100-10 is 29” wide and 21 1/2” deep. The table on the 4100XC-10 is 30” wide and 22 1/2” deep.
