How to Use Dewalt Table Saw DWE7485 

Never trap your cut off between the “rip fence” and the blade. The miter gauge should be used on the left side of the blade for that cut, do some research before you pass along any other tips.

Please delete this video. That mitered cut you made at the end was so dangerous. I literally cringed. You’re asking for kickback trying to use the miter gauge, fence, and push stick all together. It’s a fence, not a width gauge. It’s a miter gauge, not an angle cut gauge. It’s a miter slot, not a port. It’s honestly dangerous for first time table saw users to watch your video. Not trying to troll you, just trying to keep others from following this guidance.

I am not too concerned about the fact that the way you cut the longer pieces left a lot to be desired as far as making the cuts parallel to each other (which they couldn't have been without making at least three long cuts due to the first cut being made more or less freehand), but the lack of at least safety goggles as well as the totally improper (and dangerous) use of the miter gauge, just shows that you should NOT be trying to instruct others on the proper use of a table saw. Table saws are unforgiving and should only be used when the operator uses the proper techniques and has the proper respect for the saw itself. I have been using saws of all types for a very long time and I can tell you that quite a few people have fewer digits and or whole appendages as a result of using a saw improperly. Some weren't even as careless as you. The next time that you want to demonstrate something for other DIYers, please take the time to learn how to use whatever it is properly and safely. Not just for your audience's sake, but for your own as well. I really would not like to hear that you had any accidents that could've been avoided if you had taken the proper care. I genuinely felt compelled to write this for your safety as well as the others who watch you.

I bought this saw 3 months ago and never used a table saw before. Its sat in my shop collecting dust until I watched your tutorial. Thank you- it was just the right amount of info I needed to get started using this saw with confidence.

Thanks for the information. Very helpful.

great idea with chalk string. thumbs up

Very helpfully video! Cheers from Germany

Out of all the videos on this saw, none show a long piece of wood being cut. Thank you! It never occurred to me to walk around the saw as it was on to get the whole piece thru it 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Thanks for your time

Thank you so much! 😊😊😊

I have a Dewalt miter saw and the Dewalt table saw (new, and have not used it just yet). How does the cut in the table saw compare to the miter saw when you did the 2x4 mitered cut?

Why not use a straight guide with a circular saw then run through the table saw?, I recently bought one of those table saws, im going to attempt to run it off grid.

Even has the fence on the wrong side of the blade hooollllly shhhhh lol

Wouldn't a skillsaw work better for the first cut?

I just bought this and I'm waiting on it being delivered. Thanks for the video. It helped me. Thanks, and I just subscribed to your channel.

Why on this saw the mesures don’t start at zero on alignment with the blade?

Are you in Bend or something? Noticed the trees outside kind of look like it. Awesome video man thanks for the tips! Beginner woodworker here. Do you find DIY and woodworking keeps you fit or do you also exercise too?

i want to know how good it is after a few years. nearly everything works good the day it's taken out of the box.

Rip fence with a cross cut?

In addition to all the other posts regarding safety, no hearing protection or eye protection, WTF?

Would be good to see tips, tricks, different cuts. Angles. Jigs etc etc

great video, you actually shot this on my birthday, 8-17 really nice to see you actually using the blade guard, my wife's uncle gave me his older Delta TS200 table saw he is in his later 80s just cut his fingers for the 2nd time i believe, no blade guard, no riving knife it seems like there is a very large gap on the left side of the plate that sits over the blade. i was making a few practice cuts and the boards kept rising up, the saw just feels dangerous, i like the set up of this one, thanks again great video.

Thanks brother you helped me big time on the rail..love the work I love my dewalt

howd you fit your hand into that glove

👍🏼

WOW

45 degree cut might move hey.

Please cut the last cut you made from this video coz its too dangerous how you did it. In case of kick back by using the push stick on the miter you better put on a helmet and wear a combat suit.

Have not found any Dewalt dealer that come up with a table saw stand with wheels that will work with the DWE7485. I am 80 plus years and want wheels to move it around as I no longer can lift the weight to move it.

I’ve never seen anyone tuck their pants into their boots before

VIEWERS of Video, PLEASE wear safety glasses and perhaps goggles!

Нормальный мужик , хорошая работа , каждый следит за своими пальцами как считает нужным .Хорошего дня и Удачи

This guy is dangerous !!! Im just saying

Music is distracting

Thanks that helped me. I was wondering how to use that miter gauge now I know thanks

Justin gaethje? That you?

You should be watching how-to videos, not making them.

thanks dewalt, i mean ryan

Great video. Thanks for pulling it together. The instructions are terrible. 👊

Safety glasses don’t belong on your head

04:33 Coach starts calling names [*sucker*] at the miter gauge, and *I* know why: there's *too much* play and wiggle.

Wtf did I just watch

Hi David Hale, I would like to say that we Germans love security and what is shown in the video is in no way dangerous. Are you talking about kickback? The piece of wood that he saw with the rip fence has no effect on a kickback as it is not wider / longer than the saw blade itself. The German version of the DWE7485 table saw has no kickback knives in the scope of delivery, so much for the nightmare kickback. In addition, a kickback only occurs because the wood tapers again at the end when sawing. This is what the riving knife is intended for. Therefore, I suggest deleting your comment, because such comments scare beginners! @all: Sorry for my bad english...🙄

Bro, your music is awfully loud and unappropriated for this type of work please remove or change it for something more peaceful!
