Default Ridgid TS 3650 package size

Hi, I am planning to buy a TS3650. However I only have RAV4. Not sure
if the saw package can fit in this little truck. Also if RAV4 can take
this much of weight. I can't find the package dimension anyway. Please
help.

Thanks!

Tom

If you can put 2 High Schoolers in the back seat, the vehicle will easily
handle the weight.
There is a lot of assembly as the legs and fence rails will have to be
assembled. I suspect that it will come in 3 or 4 boxes. Surely you can
take it home in that vehicle although it may require a couple of trips and
or removal from the shipping box.

I can't see why it couldn't. I drive a Chevy Metro and I've been able to
put some pretty big stuff in the back of that with room to spare. Don't
laugh, it carries 8ft lumber with the hatch closed.

I got mine in the back of an S-10 Blazer with no problems, other than
lifting the damn thing. Any truck/car, no matter the size should
handle 300lbs without any problems.

Should fit ok. Brought mine home in my Exploorer/ seats still up! 2 boxes ,
one is long with the rails. The other is HEAVY, (285# I believe). Get some
help to unload. Like mine a lot.
BTW: Posted some time ago for info on zero clearance insert and got some
good help from the group. Finally settled on a place named M&D Mower, for
14.95 /shipping. . Got a zero and a Dado. Both Ridgid. HTH

everything out to move into the shop.


An under used but excellent technique that I've also used with my
basement shop when the walk-out door is snowed or mudded in.

Bring the parts in as you need to assemble them, before long the item is
complete and in place, with no 300 pound boxes to move. Another plus is
that the waste packaging is already loaded up for the trip to the
recycling center.

A side benefit in my case is that I need to walk by the 'fridge on each
trip, so if I'm low on beer... G

That main part with the arbor, table top and frame that mounts on the
legs is HEAVY!!!! I built mine and mounted the legs on it while it was
upside down and then struggled to get it upright by myself as my poor
wife watched and provided moral support. But after you get it put
together, the frame underneath makes it a breeze to move around.

Worth every penny you spend on it. Too bad they have raised the price
back up to $550. It was $499 when I got mine and I used a 10% off coupon
they mailed me when I told them I was moving.....NOT!!!
