My Unisaw had a shipping weight 600lbs (640lbs, IIRC). There is no
way it had 260lbs of cardboard on it. ;-)

The "new" Unisaw is a total redesign of the Unisaw and the weights that
I see indicate a "total" weight that includes a fence and a side board
which will add some weight.

I have no idea of the real weight of the
new saw. The entire arbor assembly is a total redo of the old design
that has been in place since 1938, so they did add some more weight to
the saw.

There is no way to compare the "old" saw to the "new" saw in weights.

I own both a 1966 12"/14" tilting arbor saw and a 1971 Unisaw.


Well, I suppose "Unisaw" is pretty vague. My ~600lb Unisaw is a 2008
"old" style. Yes, the 600lbs does include the 50" fence, two
extensions, and side table (maybe all of 10 lbs ;-). It doesn't
include the base (separate purchase).


Don't forget the 60# pallet it is mounted on for shipping.


I figured it as half that (about the same as a cement block). Maybe I
got cheated. ;-)
