DWS715 vs DWS716

DEWALT DWS715 vs DEWALT DWS716. Of the 5 figures both makers publish, none differs outright. 3 are worded too differently to set side by side: motor, arbor and included.

Cited for one of the pair: only DEWALT's cited pages give bevel capacity, crosscut capacity and speed. The other maker may publish the figure elsewhere; ask it rather than assume the DWS715 and DWS716 match there.
