I replaced mine with an Incra model that is excellent and added LeeCraft zero clearance inserts for tear out free work. The fence is a strong point on this saw, however the included miter gauge is worthless. Very little tuning was needed, but the adjustments are designed into this saw if needed. I took the time with a dial indicator to make sure that the miter slots are parallel to the blade and likewise for the rip fence. Of course the feed rate is slower than my old cabinet saw, but it is a well built tool for the compromises that have to be made with lightweight portable jobsite saws. I run full kerf Forrest WW II blades with out problems and it spins a full sized 8" dado just fine. It has really surprised me about how capable it is. I wanted to rip narrow pieces for face frame and door frames and got the 7491. I downsized from a 3HP Unisaw and went with out a table saw for a couple of years using only a track saw. If it is the 7491 RS, it is one great saw.
