Power & Motor
Both table saws are cordless and run on 60 V batteries.
Both products have motors that produce 5800 rpm. Don’t pay too much attention to these numbers, because the manufacturers measure them under no-load conditions, so they don’t have a strong impact on the saw’s real-world capability to handle different material.
Blade Compatibility
Both saws take 8 1/4” diameter saw blades and have a 5/8” arbor. Most 8-to-10” blades have a 5/8” arbor hole, so this size of arbor provides a lot of choices.
Neither table saw accepts dado blades. If you’re a woodworker, this could be a significant shortcoming. If you might want to use dado blades, you might want to look at a different model.
Size & Capacity
Both table saws have 24” of rip capacity on the right side of the blade and have 12” of rip capacity on the left. Generally speaking, larger 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 products are able to cut up to 2 1/2” deep at a 90° angle and will cut up to 1 3/4” at 45°. The DCS7485T1 can bevel up to 45°.
The table on the DCS7485 is 22 3/4” wide and 22 3/4” deep.
