The 2705 also features a tool-less modular blade guard system with adjustable dual side guards to allow for ease of measurement from the blade to the rip fence for cutting setups. The two on-board independent stowable anti-kickback pawls and riving knife/spreader allow for through cuts. In addition, the riving knife/spreader adjusts to three different positions for through, non-through, and dado cuts--and it adjusts without removing the throat plate.
More Capacity and More Accuracy
The precision machined table top remains flat and true for accurate cuts, right out of the box. The right extension table allows for greater cutting capacity with the capability to rip 4 x 8 foot sheets of plywood. Precision adjustment features include a 3/8 x 3/4 inch T-slot miter gauge with grooves that securely support cutting material for wide crosscutting jobs. The rip fence slides effortlessly across the flat table top for more precise adjustments.
Convenience features include a large on and off switch and an easy-to-read scale for fast adjustments. The saw has complete storage capacity to hold most commonly used accessories including saw blade, power supply cord, miter gauge, rip fence, push stick, wrench, safety guard, and dado blade.

They built a great table saw with a great motor equipped with a blade brake and plenty of power. The table extension is great for ripping large sheets. The major downside again is in the rip fence. I don't understand why Makita engineers can't figure out how to build a rip fence that locks tight and is easy to adjust tracking parallel with the blade. Makita's older more portable model 2703 has the same problem - a poor rip fence. I love Makita motors and overall build, but the rip fences are a huge drawback. The other negative is the weight, but this could be necessary to get the power of this saw. The cast frame that holds the motor is quite beefy as is the table - providing a great sturdy saw but not so portable. Maybe Makita should take a look at the Dewalt DW745 table saw. We have 3 of these and we all love them as the best portable table saw. The rip fence locks well and has a knob on the front that moves the rail that the fence clamps to. Check it out Makita! 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful: By Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
