Power & Motor

The DWE7485 is corded, runs on 120 V, and draws 15 amps. Standard U.S. residential circuits are 120 V, 15 A, which will support the.

The DCS7485 is cordless and runs on 60 V batteries.

Both table saws have motors that spin at 5800 rpm. Don’t get too caught up in these numbers, since the manufacturers measure them under ideal conditions, and they don’t have a direct impact on the saw’s real-world ability to handle different material.

Blade Compatibility

Both saws take 8 1/4” diameter blades and have a 5/8” arbor. Most 8-to-10” blades have a 5/8” arbor hole, so this size of arbor maximizes blade compatibility.

Neither product accepts dado blades. For woodworkers, this might be a significant deficiency. If you anticipate wanting to use dado blades, you might want to look at a different model.

Size & Capacity

Both products have 12” of rip capacity to the left side of the blade. The DCS7485 has 24” of rip capacity to the right. The DWE7485 has 24 1/2” of rip capacity to the right side of the blade. As a rule, more rip capacity is better, but it typically also means a larger, heavier saw. Think about what types of rip cuts you’ll be making and choose the right size saw for you.

Both table saws can cut up to 1 3/4” at a 45° angle. The DCS7485 can cut up to 2 1/2” deep at a 90° angle. The DWE7485 can bevel its blade up to 45° and can cut up to 2 9/16” at a 90° angle.

The tables on both saws have a width of 22 3/4” and a depth of 22 3/4”.
