The R1042L is the successor to the successful R1040 professional rail saw.
It carries on its legacy by inheriting all of its strength such as having an all steel frame, integrated folding legs with wheels, a reliable direct drive induction motor and a miter-able rail system to make 45-degree cuts. There has also been a modest improvement to its cutting capacity so it can now cut 48-inches on a plunge while only adding a few inches to its foot print. In addition, the tables now feature a slide in reinforced aluminum extrusion system that help reduce the saws overall weight while retain its original strength.
