Other features include a dead-on cam locking rip fence, a large handle for easy depth setting, and accurate rack-and-pinion bevel adjustment. Positive stops are located at 90 and 45 degrees. Purchase includes a carbide-tipped blade, rip fence, miter gauge, and no. 19 and no. 13-22 wrenches.

Amazon.com Review

For the price, the Makita 2703 Table Saw is a solid choice for the job site. The 15 amp motor packs plenty of power, and with a 3-9/16-cut capacity, this saw will rip four-by material on a single pass. This saw also has an electric brake, so adjustments between cuts are both safer and quicker to make. The table's a good size, too: 27 by 22 inches. We also really like the saw's new cam-lock rip fence, which is much easier to adjust than double-locking designs. The bevel adjust has a pretty good rack-and-pinion design (metal, admittedly, would be better). All in all, this saw strikes a nice balance between weight (only 40 pounds) and vibration (minimal). Simply put, the Makita 2703 is a solid saw, better for the job site (quick, powerful, lightweight) than the home shop. For the shop, we'd recommend a saw with a more accurate fence. --Jon Groebner
