So does this unit go around the existing table top (I have a Makita 2708) or does it replace the existing table top? Do I have to drill new holes? Also the fold out table extension in back of the saw...is that included or is it another optional accessory?

The Rousseau table attaches to the original table and does not require drilling. This unit does not have an outfeed.

Yes, you can actually see it in the pictures if you click on it for details. You can see 3 of the four holes you use to drill and mount bolts to secure the miter saw too a table.I remembered the first time I bought the saw I read the manual cover to cover and hitachi note's too safely secure the miter saw before operating by mounting it on a work bench/surface.

My Incra bound in the miter slot, and hung up on the front edge of the table. This might have been because the table itself was badly warped, and not deep enough to accommodate a 1 X 6. I used the Incra because the supplied gauge is a toy, but cannot recommend it. After replacing the table under warranty ( that was a battle) I immediately sold the saw. My recollection is that there is a slight bevel to the miter slot which caused the adjusting wheels to bind. Did not try the Incra after the repair.

I found that on my Craftsman table saw the outermost blade rested wholly on the threaded portion of the arbor the blades mount on. This threaded area is slightly smaller in diameter than the unthreaded portion of the arbor allowing the outermost blade to rest slightly offset from the centerline of the arbor. This effectively increases its diameter causing it to cut deeper leaving an "uneven base." I resolved the problem by using a single wrapping of aluminum tape (approx. .003") around the threads under the outer blade. The aluminum tape is soft and may need to be replaced periodically to maintain the blade's tight fit on the shaft.

Just got mine delivered. There is no hole in the plastic piece that the saw blade fits into, had to drill a hole...Seems like a simple thing for the manufacture to do and since there were no directions I wasn't sure if this was what you had to do till I read this line of answers on Amazon

My saw is a 10 inch Makita 2708 about 18 years old, just a good old reliable saw. The new fence is as good as the original. Been working fine. Hope this helps

I also have the saw that matches http://www.deltamachinery.com/products/table-saws/item/36-l352. I bought the accessory drawer as an add-on and really appreciate it

The saw has a drive belt and I bet yours is a bit stretched. Easy to replace. Check your owners manual for belt replacement - might be on page 37. That should do the trick for you.

Jack: I have my table saw mounted on a Hi-Lo folding stand (Porter Cable stand, I think). I made a base for the Steel City planer out of 3/4" plywood and put two 3/4" runners under it which exactly match the miter slots in the table saw top. I then just place the planer on top of the saw (in it's low position) and the runners and weight of the planer hold it very stable. I like this combo, since I'm able to remove and stow it when not in use (I have s small shop!). I saw the other comment and it appears mine was not the first to be used this way! I run 6' and 8' boards through without issue. Bill Jack: I have my table saw mounted on a Hi-Lo folding stand (Porter Cable stand, I think).

I have to agree with Gary, call Jessem and give them the key dimensions of your table and go from there. In my case I had a custom cast iron surface that fit as a wing on my table saw. The opening was okay but I needed to make a few minor mods to secure the plate to the table... nothing very difficult. As long as the opening dimensions and thickness allowance on your table match JessEm's plate you should be able to make it work.

Can't say for sure. Basically you need mounting holes approx 16-inch on center on both the front and rear edges of the tabletop, more or less centered on the blade. PC website shows it as a cast iron table. You should be able to drill new holes fairly easily if you need to. I had to drill my old Craftsman saw table - alot easier than I feared it would be.

Not having this saw I cannot say absolutely, however, in doing a bit of research the depth of your table is 27" which will match up with the 27" deep ProMax table. Looking at pics of the DeWalt saw it looks as though you would need to remove the left table extension and attach the ProMax to the existing bolt holes. There are several holes in the side of the ProMax table to mount to several different bolt configurations so I am thinking you should not have any issue with attaching it. If you read my review, please don't do as I did......CHECK FOR LEVEL AS SOON AS YOU GET IT. I have since replaced my table saw mounted router table with a full size Bench Dog router table which is good and flat. But use a good straight edge and check it level. The other tell-tale will be if you cannot get your router plate to sit flat on all four sides. Even it is a very small amount, remember any shifting of the wood due to an uneven surface will show up on your routered edge. My other recommendation is to use some blue locktite (not the super duty stuff) on the router plate leveling screws because the vibration will loosen these up and take your router plate out of level. Good luck.

I would suspect something with the saw. Mine works great with the table saw.

I wouldn't use the extension table provided. I will end up using 2 pieces of 3/4" mdf stacked together and cut out the middle to fit an insert plate like the one kreg sells. That way you can use the table saw fence the way it is or modify it to collect the dust or build your own.

Yes, I can answer this question. Though I don't own this particular DeWalt table saw (I do own a Dewalt floor model table saw), I was able to find the manual for the DeWalt DW744 table saw on line (http://manualstorage.com/en/f/dewalt-dw744.htm?p=8) and on Page 8 of this manual it states "Saw Blades THIS SAW IS INTENDED FOR THE USE OF SAW BLADES 10" IN DIAMETER OR SMALLER 1. The saw blade furnished with your new saw is a 10" (254mm) combination blade, used for cross cutting (across the grain) and ripping (with the grain) through the material. The center hole to fit on the arbor is 5/8" (16mm) diameter (.625"). This blade will produce a good quality cut for most applications. So as is true with most table saws, you can use any blade that is SMALLER in diameter than the stated size of the table saw (in your case 10") and as long as the saw blade has a 5/8" hole to fit the DeWalt mounting arbors. When mounting ANY different saw blade into a table saw (and of course always unplug the saw when doing so), re-use all the bushings/spacers/washers that were used to mount the original 10: blade and check for full clearance of the blade to the table insert before ever starting the saw, to avoid any metal-to-metal interference or an improper blade installation. Once this is checked, I start-stop the saw immediately just to see if the blade is rotating freely and not hitting anything. Once I'm convinced the newly mounted blade is free and clear of any interferences with the table insert plate, I'm ready to do my cutting with the blade. So you can absolutely use this 8" blade on your 10" table saw. Hope this helps!

I purchased one and mounted it to a Grizzly table saw and love it. My saw table and extensions are cast so that would be about the only concern I would have about yours. I'm sure that it would it would fit yours but you may have to drill an extra hole or two to mount it. I was fortunate and did not have to do that and there is a good chance that you would not either.

Not really sure, I have a Delta cabinet saw with a typical slot for attachments. Most tables are built to accommodate accessories! Hopefully shopsmith is on board. Wish I could be more helpful, my recommendation is to contact Grizzly.
