Power & Motor

Both 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 table saws.

The 4100XC-10 motor spins at 3650 rpm and the DWE7491RS motor spins at 4800 rpm. But dont get too caught up in these numbers, since the manufacturers measure them under ideal conditions, and they dont have a direct impact on the saws real-world ability to handle different material.

Blade Compatibility

Both products take 10 diameter blades and have a 5/8 arbor. 10 is the most common diameter for table saw blades, so youll be able to find a huge variety of blades for any purpose. Most 8-to-10blades have a 5/8arbor hole, so this size of arbor maximizes blade compatibility.

Both saws accept dado blades up to 13/16 thick.

Size & Capacity

The Bosch has 30 of rip capacity to the right of the blade. The DeWalt has 32 1/2 of rip capacity to the right side and has 22 of rip capacity to the left. Generally speaking, more rip capacity is better, but it typically also means a larger, heavier saw. Think about what types of rip cuts youll be making and choose the right size saw for you.

Both table saws can cut up to 3 1/8 at a 90° angle and can cut up to 2 1/4 deep at a 45° angle. The 4100XC-10 can bevel its blade up to 47°. The DWE7491RS can bevel the blade up to 45°.

The table on the Bosch has a width of 30 and a depth of 22 1/2. The table on the DeWalt has a width of 26 3/8 and a depth of 21 7/8.
