A quick review of the portable R4550 table saw. Featured is the rolling stand setup, on-board accessory storage, and a run through of the various modes that the fence can be positioned.

This is extremely enticing because of the turning fence adjustment. I love this.

That little piece that flips down over the bigger fence is a secondary fence for doing super thin cuts. Thats a terrific saw btw

Any update after 4 months? I'm looking to pull the trigger.

So….. what’s your take after a year!? How’d the fence and angle locks hold up? 🤷🏾♂️

Do you know if the rip fence can be attached to the Ridgid R4514 model? I have the R4514 and the fence on it is terrible. tia

I am considering this saw but was curious to ask since you have had the saw for some time, how is the dust collection? I've been looking at the dealt and it seems that where the blade is, that compartment is completely sealed so would imaging dust collection is great. With the good price currently on the Rigid R4550, was curious to hear what you have experienced on that.

Will it work with a dado stack?

I was about to pull the trigger on the older model R4514 since it's on sale for $400. This newer model is currently $500. The gear driven fence is the primary reason I'm considering this R4550. Did you check all the angles to see how square and true the table is, blade (0 and 45 degrees), fence, etc? Thank you!

Hi Ed. I had no problems with heel (parallel to fence) or blade angle, out of the box. They were spot on. I didn't mention it, but the packing for the tool was very well done, so that makes a difference. I made quite a few cuts last week at 0 and 45 degrees and they went really well. That said, I'll be moving this around and I'm guessing over time things can get out of whack, especially if carted around in a truck and brought to job sites. The instruction manual has directions for adjusting both. There are hard to find screws that are used to adjust these. Since you are shopping, you might also want to consider the DeWalt mid-range if the price is right. Last weekend I was using one at a Habitat for Humanity build. It is almost exactly the same. It looks like the main workings are from the same basic manufacturer. That's kind of odd because the parent companies of the brands are different. Anyway, the only differences I saw were: 1) The stand folds and stores different. 2) The throat plate on the DeWalt has a lock/unlock instead of just a clip. So, yes, I still like the fence and it is (so far) true. It is a huge improvement compared to the "clip and secure" fences on the lower end models. Those will drive you nuts. My one dislike so far is that the locking mechanism for the folding table doesn't grab well. I think that may have even come through in the video.

Well I just assembled mine and the heel adjustment is off. No where in the instruction manual is there directions for adjusting heel. Just a mention of it on page 29. I'll figure it out but the point remains.
