FLEX FX7221-Z vs Makita U.S.A. 2705. Of the 6 figures both makers publish, 2 differ: voltage and weight. 2 are worded too differently to set side by side: depth of cut and table size. Both are jobsite table saws with the same blade diameter: blade diameter 10 in on the FX7221-Z, 10" on the 2705, in their makers' figures.

Stated differently, not directly comparable

The two makers put these figures in different terms, so the rows cannot be read as a match or a difference from these pages.

  • Depth of cut: FX7221-Z: 3-5/8 in. 2705: at 90° 3-5/8"; at 45° 2-1/2".
  • Table size: FX7221-Z: 27.5 in. 2705: 24-5/8" x 22-1/4".

Cited for one of the pair: only FLEX's cited pages give motor, rip capacity, bevel capacity, miter capacity, fence, speed and included; only Makita U.S.A.'s cited pages give current. The other maker may publish the figure elsewhere; ask it rather than assume the FX7221-Z and 2705 match there.
