Description of Makita 2703 15 Amp 10-Inch Benchtop Table Saw
Powerful and lightweight table saw has a 15 Amp motor with the capacity to rip 4X material in a single pass. U.S.A. Volts: 115, Amps: 15, Speed - No Load (RPM): 4,600, Table Dimenions W x L (in.): 27 x 22, Blade Diameter (in.): 10, Arbor Size (in.): 5/8, Cutting Depth at 90deg (in.): 3 9/16, Cutting Depth at 45deg (in.): 2 1/2For the price, Makita's 10-inch portable 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
Tools and Hardware Reviews of Makita 2703 15 Amp 10-Inch Benchtop Table Saw
Customer Review: plenty of power
Summary: 4 Stars
I've owned this saw for seven years now and couldn't be happier. I use it with the Rousseau stand and one wing extension which in my opinion is a must have for the professional contractor. Forget the lousy miter slot, that's what a good cabinet saw in the shop is for. On the job I assume most have a good chop saw with them for crosscuts. The fence is ok I guess for a quick cut when you need to pull the saw out in a hurry and don't feel like dropping it in the stand. For the most part I use the fence with the Rousseau stand which also is less than perfect if your trying to cut to the nearest 64th. This saw has flawlessly cut through some of the thickest lumber (even wet) that I've pushed through it (as long as it's not twisted)
My saw has been left out in the rain more times than I care to admit and still works as good as day one. A thorough cleaning of the mechanics with Paslode's cordless gun cleaner and a good spray lubricant has kept the raising and lowering gears running smooth. The brake system is a must have and still works great after all these years.
A buddy of mine was set up next to me with his brand new Bosch table saw and couldn't get it to cut through a wet 2x6 in one pass without bogging down the motor...He pushed it through mine effortlessly and to say the least was a little unhappy. To be fair with the Bosch, he was running a higher tooth blade more suited to finishing, but so was I...To make him feel better I told him "But yours looks really cool"...
Nice job Makita, don't ruin a good thing.
