DEWALT Table Saw Stand, Rolling Stand, Collapsible and Portable, Lightweight and Compact (DW7440RS)

I bought the Saw Stand in December of '08. I didn't really like the assembly instructions but got it together okay. The stand is used for my Dewalt 10" table saw just as it was intended. It was a good match and I am totally satisfied with both the saw and the stand. All of the comments that I have read have been positive and reviewers have given it five stars. I concur and give it five stars as well. It goes from storage to setup with ease and I can move it around with ease. The balance of the saw and stand together is phenomenal. The handle for pushing and pulling the stand around on the wheels is just the right size and tucks out of the way when you don't need it. I can move the whole package up and down the step (into and out of the shop) with ease. I have never felt out of control when moving the saw around. (I use a couple of small bungee cords to keep the blade cover in place while moving the stand around.) I am now considering selling my Craftsman Table Saw and Radial Arm saw - that should add a lot of room to my shop. Would I buy another one? For sure. Was it worth the money? I think so.

Just arrived this afternoon and just a few minutes after taking it out of the box, it was assembled and ready to go. It's a very heavy duty stand and very well made. It even looks good! Back legs are a little longer than the front which looks strange at first, but it grows on you. I will follow up in a few days after I mount my new Bosch table saw to it. Update,Feb 7, 2013 As simple as it is, it may be one of the best tools I have ever owned. It's rock solid. I mounted my brand new Bosch table saw to this stand and it makes the little saw feel much larger than it actually is. In spite of the way the legs stick out to make it stable, the legs don't get in my way. Would give this stand six stars if I could. Well worth the money. I have used the Bosch gravity stand and it's easy to use, and this one is almost as easy and has a smaller footprint. UPDATE, MID APRIL 2014: Using it since first of the year. I can have my Bosch table saw up and running in just two or three minutes. Takedown is just as quick. Talk about a time saver! On a nice day, I can easily wheel it out the door which gives me much more room. One day it rained when the saw was outside. I had it down and inside in two minutes. UPDATE APPRIL 2015: Still going strong. Not a single issue. Not one. Works as well as it did the day I bought it. Perfect for the small shop. Get Amazon prime and shipping is free!

Not sure why people are saying it's hard to assemble with the Dewalt 7485 - it went together quite quickly - maybe took 20 minutes. If you are having issues just watch a youtube video on setup. I think people are trying to bolt it through the holes in the metal part of the black frame, but the bolts for the brackets that attach to the bottom of the saw actually just screw into the holes on the bottom of the plastic/rubber feet of the saw (you don't have to remove the feet from the saw for this particular saw model). The nuts that are included with those bolts are simply not used for this particular installation, so they may be used for a different saw or tool other than the 7485. It's really stable when deployed and easily maneuverable. It puts the tabletop of the saw at 35-1/4" which may be a bit short for some but it's just about perfect for me. Highly recommended.

Oh yeah, this is the cats meow! I came across a heck of a deal on the Dewalt portable table saw about a year ago and have been using a platform type ladder to set it on which kept it at a good height for working. I've had a few back surgeries so I was looking for something that I could use with it that wouldn't require a lot of lifting. The saw itself isn't very heavy but there are some days that it's almost impossible to lift it much less carry it any distance. This saw stand took care of all of that! My wife bought it for me for my birthday and I couldn't be happier with it. It was easy to put together. The directions seemed a little vague but once I noticed that the front and rear of the stand were marked on the labels, it wasn't difficult at all to put together. The allen wrenches were supplies and I put it together in my living room while watching TV. The saw mounted right to it and yet it's easy to remove it when I don't need the stand or when I'm hauling it somewhere. The bottom of the saw is still exposed for easy cleaning. It folds easily for transport and storage and only takes up a little space in my workshop. I would highly recommend this to anyone and it's been a back saver to me! I love it! Not sure how I got along without it!

This is a solidly made and cleverly designed stand. I like it. But there's a problem that I think is probably a design defect. The attached photos are of the spring-loaded lock pin that is *supposed* to hold the handle in the extended position when tilting and moving the stand with saw attached. I've removed the cover so the mechanism is visible. The first photo shows the pin in the "locked" position, in which the tip of the pin is supposed to be firmly inserted into a hole drilled in the long leg of the T handle. The second shows the pin retracted, to show the reduced-diameter tip of the pin, which is *supposed* to seat in the hole in the handle. The problem, with my stand, is that the pin *does not* seat securely and *does not* reliably hold the T handle in the extended position. That's dangerous. As the saw and stand are tilted from horizontal to vertical or vertical to horizontal, and when rolling the combo in "hand truck" mode, the handle is naturally subjected to forces tending to collapse the handle more often than forces tending to extend it. It would be very easy to lose control of the saw and stand if the handle collapses during transport. I call this a design defect because although it's possible that a manufacturing error resulted in mispositioning the fixture the pin is mounted in (on my stand), or that the pin was inadvertently machined too short or the tip ground imperfectly, the design of a safety feature should provide for tolerances that make such errors unlikely to result in dangerous failures. I'll figure out a way to make sure the extended handle on my stand stays extended. Everyone should check to see whether your stands have the same problem. I can easily imagine quite bad things happening if the handle collapses unexpectedly. Edit: The third photo shows a quick, temporary emergency fix. The pin can't retract and the handle can't wobble away. And the first quick clamp I grabbed happened to be DeWalt.

A very difficult assembly instruction booklet with little understanding from this engineer. Their technical writers are doing drugs. I had to get on-line and youtube to see the "easy assembly". Good videos and very functional stand. I had to make 1/2" spacers to the absolutely TOO LONG securing screws. I made them out of oak (see photos). The screws are too long for the interior space of the base securing tube. You must take off the plastic "boots" to secure. a very good product and DO NOT BY THE Chinese fake one that is just a bit cheaper. I ordered both and immediately sent back the cheap Chinese version. Get the DeWalt sanctioned real one. You will thanks me later.

Really good

I was reading the reviews on people having to drill out the holes to mount the 7485. I was struggling with this too. Then I read the SAW manual and it clearly showed the mounting points. They are NOT the tubular angled holes that the stand manual points out. They are located on the bottom of the rubber feet of the saw in the middle. They use the same bolts provided. It’s perfectly mounted/level and is rock solid. It’s not coming off that stand unless you break it. I just wanted to clear this up for others since I was following the stand guide and hit the same struggles some have shared here. See attached pictures. Otherwise the stand is great. The instruction manual is garbage in terms of how it’s written and the poor pictures. But it’s pretty straightforward even with less than stellar instructions.

looked far and wide in stores. No luck. Lots of other options, but none really the right fit. Found this on Dewalt Website at best unit for the saw but they pointed to other sites that went to out of stock vendors. Went to Amazon, found a few vendors. Picked one and got it within a week. Spent less time ordering and waiting for delivery than I had spent in stores finding nothing. Unit is great. Well built, sturdy, Easy to fold up, nice to be able to snap on and remove the saw, bonus of wheels to increase mobility. Great for heavy duty work but also for home use where you need to move saw from room to room plus outside.

Tisch einwandfrei, aber nicht für kapsäge geeignet zu niedrieg

Impresionante la calidad de este soporte, al principio dudaba en hacer la compra de este artículo y ahora estoy completamente satisfecho de haberlo comprado. Recomiendo que veas la compatibilidad de la sierra donde pretendes usarlo, ya que en mi caso la sierra con la que cuento es una DWE7470 y no coincidieron las dimensiones de los barrenos de fijación. La solución fue simple, le hice una base secundaria con las dimensiones del soporte y quedó perfectamente bien. Sin embargo, si no quieres tener algo distinto a lo original revisa que sea compatible con tu sierra.

Very high quality stand

Puedo descansar de cargar la maquina que era muy pesada para mi. Ocupa espacio seria lo unico a considerar pero para moverla yo de adentro de mi casa al patio un exito.
