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.

Your 2708 drops over this table and gets fastened underneath screws and plastic spacers are provided. The Rousseau table is flush with the saws table and the fence provided is far superior to the stock makita, the back out feed table is extra, hope this helps,Anthony

The Dewalt has the correct (5/8) size arbor. I don't know about the blade guard removal and you will have to replace the table insert. None of this should really be a problem.

It will work. Takes up a ton of table top real estate. I did it using the TS-LS rail system though. You could simply attach yours to a board and remove it for storage/cutting operations. Clamp it back on the table for joinery. I got tired of removing the Wonder Fence, etc. to make more room for cross cutting with the saw. Bought the 32" positioner for the table saw and moved the router table, Wonder Fence and LS25 positioner to a separate station. Am well pleased with the whole thing now. The Wonder Fence joinery system seems to be a little fussy about the router bit profile you use. Get the Whiteside bits as well, the system is a real joy to work with. It will work.

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.

The main router table top has I believe 10 predrilled pilot holes that line up with holes in the base. simply install the mounting screws. Every thing lines up. It was very easy and I move mine around and it has stayed very secure. I would also like to add the assembly instructions are verygood and easy to follow.

I was also interested in retrofitting my DW744. I have original parts list indicating that extension arm DW7441 is an accessory (therefore it should fit). However, on initial inspection, it isn't obvious to me how the support will attach to the saw body. I have two under table c channels screwed to the table underside about midway between front to back. but I see no holes designed to allow the support to attach and extend out of saw base unless additional brackets come with the support. I could just order it and if it doesn't work, return it immediately.

I don't know because I have a Skill table saw but as many of them are made in the same factory send me the length and width of the opening in the table top and I will measure mine and let you know if they are the same.

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.

I have had this unit for 2 years. No problems with poor machining. Table saws are not made equal, nor are the table tops ever perfectly flat. The slight wobble with this unit is not detrimental enough that it caused square issues. You might want to call Grizzly and inquire about this problem; get an answer from the "horses mouth" so to speak. Hapy jigging!

It will require you to secure a base plate to the opposite end of the machine. You can make this base plate from a piece of angle ( aluminum or steel) screwed into the edge of the table. The wood plate attached to the angle and the carriage stop. It will be a pain in the neck changing things so you can use the saw. Can't use this setup for a saw fence. Not stable enough.

It is on the table...check out the saw I just bought, it is a Powermatic PM 1000 with cabinet mounted trunion, 50" fence setup with the extension/work table included. Well worth the money I spent on it is a Cadillac compared the the Grizzly with a 5 year warranty too compared to 1 year with the Grizz. But for the money the Grizz is not a bad saw...my motor went out after a year and they wanted $300 to replace it.

I use my saw to build furniture . It is a fine tool , great finish , smooth , no chatter . I replaced another saw with the Makita . The old saw was a Delta , a good saw , but used it for years , building decks and misc things , it was worn out . I love the Makita .

I mounted mine in my table saw. I removed one of the cast iron extension wings, got a piece of phenolic resin plywood and cut it to the size of the extension wing, routed it to accept the router plate and router, and mounted it where the old extension wing was. Works great and I have the option of using the fence from my table saw with it as well. I have run numerous sheets of plywood and MDF over it, as well as hard wood lumber, and have had no issues with it snagging or scarring material.

You folks are referencing a different saw. This one does not have miter gauge slots on the table. If you're trying to get the blade parallel to the rip fence, you can just slightly move the rip fence when locking it in place, as in every table saw. Check your saw to verify the model number for better help.

The rest-plate-on-screw-head-and-adjust-plate-height thing is for sure the case with my table saw inserts. But for this router, I made up a router table (Formica to cabinet-grade MDF) and mated it to the table saw, like an extension table, but cheaper than cast iron. I know, I know--but lighter, too, and it works just fine. Then I routed a recess for the router insert, found brass flat-head screws that just fill the chamfered holes. Which means the screws through those corner screw holes hold the Triton insert plate flat and flush with the router table surface.

No, but I have only used it a couple of times, I am assuming you have an inverted table mount with bit up. If that is the case you should be able to attach the base to the table with mounting screws and adjust the heigt using the allen they gave in the box.

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.
