Product Description

Amazon.com
Thanks to the integrated wheels and the ability to use an extended leg as a pull handle, the RK7241S is easy to transport from one job site to the next (view larger). The extra-long, 30-inch foldout fence provides a wide rip capacity (view larger).
The Rockwell RK7241S 10-inch table saw with laser combines the best of power, precision, and portability for the utmost in versatility on the job site. It boasts four times the cutting capacity of comparable 10-inch table saws on the market, and its extra-long, 30-inch foldout fence provides the widest rip capacity. An integrated laser guide allows for consistent accuracy—the laser automatically realigns if the blade angle is beveled and never needs fine-tuning. Use an extended leg as a pull handle to effortlessly transport the saw on its built-in wheels from one job site to the next.
Biggest Depth of Cut and Most Rip Cut Capacity in Its Class
Unlike other portable 10-inch table saws, Rockwell’s RK7241 can cut through a 4-by-4 piece of lumber in one fell swoop. Its maximum cutting depth is 3-9/16 inches at 90 degrees and 2-9/16 inches at 45 degrees. And its rip cut capacity is best in class thanks to the 30-inch table to the right of the blade (with 11 inches to the left) that allows you to efficiently cut a 4-by-8 sheet of plywood in half. With 15 amps of power and a rated no-load speed of 4,800 RPM, the RK7241S is ideal for tackling large projects proficiently.
Laser Cut Line Indicator Improves Precision
Rockwell’s LaserGuide technology improves accuracy and consistency of cuts by providing a true cutline indicator that displays exactly where the blade will cut the material at hand. It’s extremely useful for lining up cuts without needing to refer to the blade itself. Plus, when the blade is skewed for bevel cuts, the laser line automatically adjusts to the updated blade arrangement.
Trolley Stand Makes for Easy Transport
Thanks to the integrated wheels and the ability to use an extended leg as a pull handle, the RK7241S is easy to roll from the workshop to the job site to the garage and back again. And the included accessories—rip fence, miter gauge, push stick, riving knife, dust bag, and blade wrenches—are all stored on board so everything travels together. The saw and the stand are fully assembled immediately from the box, and the stand folds down in mere seconds, making for the ultimate in convenience while on the job.
What's in the Box
One Rockwell RK7241S table saw with laser, one rip fence, one miter gauge, one push stick, one riving knife, one dust bag, and two blade wrenches.
Highlights
- Best-in-class cutting depth
- One-of-a-kind laser indicator adjusts to blade tilt
- Folding fence for extra wide cuts
- Fully assembled trolley stand for easy transport
- Backed by a two-year limited warranty
From the Manufacturer
The new Rockwell Jobsite Table Saw is a powerful, rugged ,and capable jobsite saw by itself. Add the available attachments and it can produce results to rival stationary saws three times the price, like those used by cabinet and furniture makers. Rockwell has found a way to increase the depth of cut to 3-9/16-Inch. This is more than other saws, and allows the user to cut through a 4 by 4 post with just one pass. The unique laser cut line indicator shows the exact place the blade will cut the material, so cuts are more precise. Other features include a class leading 30-Inch of cut capacity, and a quick-folding stand and wheels for easy transportation from place to place. The Attachment program for the Table Saw consists of a Sliding Extension Table and a Finisher. The Sliding Extension Table fits onto the left side of the saw, and expands the cutting capacity of the saw to a huge 36-3/4-Inch. Crosscutting, mitering, and taper cutting large sheets becomes a breeze. The Finisher is a unique accessory, using rapidly rotating blades to plane and smooth materials up to 3-1/8-Inch thick. Add these two accessories to turn this powerful jobsite saw into a portable precision woodworking saw and finisher.

Customers are mixed about the quality of the saw. Some mention that the physical quality of it is not bad, it's well thought out, and produces really nice cuts.

Customers are mixed about the adjustability of the saw. Some mention that it's quick and easy to adjust, while others say that there's no way to adjust so the blade will not hit the table.

"...The blade height and angle are easy and quick to adjust. It has an adjustment foot on one of the legs to level the saw. The deck is FLAT...." Read more
"...One other thing to note is that the laser is not adjustable. I did not test to see how perfectly aligned it was, but it did appear pretty accurate...." Read more
"...to fold it up and store it away is a big bonus and no additional adjustments are needed; just pull it out, fold out the legs and go...." Read more
"...The adjustment is not in the owners manual, however it is described in some of the customer reviews...." Read more
Customers are dissatisfied with the alignment of the saw. They mention that the blade was out of alignment with the table, the shaft comes out of the motor, and it was not straight. The entire motor was installed crooked, and the blade is nowhere near parallel to the fence due to the motor shaft not at the miter. The fold-out extension does not line up perfectly, so the fence sticks when sliding.
"...I then set up the fence. When I received it, the fence was not perfectly parallel to the blade. In fact, it was about 1/16" tighter at the back...." Read more
"The saw arrived with a bent, misaligned fence guide extension...." Read more
"...in half an hour, inmediately I found that the blade was not paralell to the miter guide, it was off by 1/8 in...." Read more

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
The table setup was super simple. Lifted it out of the box, flipped it on end, lowered the legs, and set it upright. The knobs that lock the legs in place, just take a half twist to unlock, and then when you begin opening the legs, you give them another half twist to allow them to lock into place once the legs are open.
The first thing that you will notice is that with the exception of the manual and dust bag, there is nothing left to pull out of the box. That's because everything is attached to the saw in its own place, including a spot for blades, tools, fence, push stick, shield, and miter.
Next was opening the extension. Just press the little spring loaded clip and open the extension. I saw one mention in my research where someone questioned the extension hinge. This was a point of question for me, but not anymore. One, the hinge seems decent, especially knowing that you won't put hardly any weight on that area. Here's the thing. The extension table sits almost 1/2" lower than the main table, and this is by design. For most materials, they are thick enough that the extension is not needed for support. It's mainly there for the fence. However, if you are running something thin through and want a bit of support, then there is a support bar that you can attach to the fence that would give you this extra bit of support. What else is nice about the extension being lower is that it will reduce drag on any material that you are running through the saw. So for these reasons, I'm not concerned about the hinge at all at this point.
Blade installation was next. The throat plate is a tool free plate that just pops out and back in. This is good and bad, in my opinion. The good is that it's really easy to pull out to replace the blade and to install/remove the riving knife or shield. The bad, in my opinion, is that I was hoping to build/buy a zero clearance insert. With this design, I'm not sure yet how or if that will be possible.
So after I got the plate removed I just used the 2 wrenches that came with the saw to install the blade. Not much to say here, other than it was nice and easy, especially compared to my old Craftsman. While I had it open, I also installed the riving knife. There is a lever behind the blade that you just flip to loosen the clamp-style mount for the knife or shield. Just slip in the one you want and lock the lever. After that, I popped in the throat plate and was ready to go.
I then set up the fence. When I received it, the fence was not perfectly parallel to the blade. In fact, it was about 1/16" tighter at the back. The nice thing is that this is completely adjustable. I made my adjustments, and it's perfect now. The fence slides reasonably well along the rail, clamps tight, and holds solid. You can also adjust the "window" that shows you your measurement to make it as accurate as possible. There is also the ability to adjust the tightness of the clamp. Neither was necessary to adjust.
The laser was next to be set up. I installed the included batteries, and that was that. The switch is just to the left of the main power, so it's easy to flip on when you flip the other. I am kind of surprised that the laser requires batteries when it could have been just as easy to tie it into the table power. Either way, it's easy to flip on and off. As for the function of the laser, the jury is still out. Basically it shines a laser line on the surface of the table, and not the wood itself. This may be ok, but it appears to me that the line is just too close to the front of the table so it may be a trick to use for larger pieces. One other thing to note is that the laser is not adjustable. I did not test to see how perfectly aligned it was, but it did appear pretty accurate. All in all, it's something to advertise, but I doubt that I will ever use it much at all.
The out feed support is a really nice addition for me. Always used rollers or saw horses in the past to accomplish this, and now those aren't required. Not much else to say about it, other than it just pulls out from the back of the table, and provides nice support for anything up to about 2 feet in length without teetering.
Haven't played with the bevel much yet, but appears to be quick and easy to adjust. Just unlock, slide to the desired position, and lock. Not sure how easy it is to fine tune, but initial tests didn't seem too bad.
Dust bag seems decent, but definitely didn't catch everything. It was able to catch a majority of the dust and debris, but not all of it. Sadly there isn't a connection for a shop vac, but I believe that this could be built on with a little bit of ingenuity. That will probably be my primary tweak when I have the time.
Last thing to review is the miter. It is plastic, but I suppose that that's to be expected from this price range. It slid through the slot nicely, and when there was lumber on top of the guide rail to hold it flat, there wasn't hardly any play from right to left. If you do not have anything sitting on top of it, you can wriggle it from right to left, but that's because it's lifting a bit in the t-slot. When held flat, it's a nice tight fit, with very little play. Other than that, it slides smooth, and will do the job. Oh, and there is a hole on either side of the handle that could be used to mount a wider support for better control if desired.
All-in-all, this is a very worthwhile upgrade in my opinion, and I am very happy with my purchase.
The package was in pristine condition. I tested the laser first and it worked. The bubble wrap was tightly packed between the motor and the table to the point I had to lower it a bit to get the bubble wrap out. I to a square, and the blade was perfectly parallel to the table out of the box. Front and back distance to miter edge was equivalent for any practical needs (might have been 1/64th off). I clipped the fence on and it was perfectly square without any manual measurement needed. I ripped a piece of wood, and it was exactly 3" across the entire piece and the cut was smooth, well as smooth as a table saw can cut.
So, my recommendation is if you get a lemon, send it back until you get a good one. At this price point, it's no surprise it has assembly defects. It's probably assembled in China. All in all, I love this saw and am looking forward to using it a lot this summer!
