All table saws basically rip and crosscut lumber. However, this new Shop Fox Hybrid Table Saw has many safety and convenience innovations that make it stand above all others. For example, the trunnions are mounted to the cabinet, just like a full size cabinet saw, allowing the table and fence to be easily adjusted for absolute parallelism to the blade. The quick-release blade guard and riving knife reduces the risk of kick-back even when non-through cutting. The blade guard also has a dust port and channeled airflow for increased dust collection efficiency. And, last but not least, the dual-position rip fence provides high-low options for safely running a variety of stock thicknesses.
