Key Features
Rip Full SheetsThe table saw delivers a 24-1/2 inch rip capacity, which means you can break down 4 x 8 plywood or oriented strand board without dragging out a larger corded saw. Corded-Level OutputMilwaukee built the POWERSTATE brushless motor to match the performance of a 15 amp corded saw, so you get serious cutting power without being tied to an outlet. ONE-KEY TrackingThis Milwaukee table saw adds tool tracking and security through ONE-KEY, which helps crews keep tabs on equipment and lock it out if it goes missing.
Overview
The Milwaukee M18 FUEL ONE-KEY 18-Volt Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless 8-1/4 in. Table Saw W/ Table Saw Stand (Tool Only) is a cordless jobsite table saw package built for carpenters, remodelers, and general contractors who need real cutting capacity without hauling a full-size stationary saw. This is a table saw designed for ripping sheet goods, trim stock, and framing material on active jobsites. Model number 2736-20-48-08-0561 combines the Milwaukee 2736-20 M18 FUEL 8-1/4 inch Table Saw with ONE-KEY and the Milwaukee 48-08-0561 folding table saw stand.
What matters here is that Milwaukee did not build this as a light-duty trim saw. The saw uses a POWERSTATE brushless motor that Milwaukee says delivers the power and performance of a 15 amp corded circular saw, while spinning at 5,800 RPM for fast, clean cuts. Pair that with a 24-1/2 inch rip capacity and this cordless table saw can handle 4 x 8 plywood or oriented strand board in the field, which is the kind of number buyers actually care about when deciding whether a compact table saw can replace a corded jobsite unit.
The fence system is another big selling point. Milwaukee uses a rack and pinion fence setup for square cuts and easier adjustments, so you are not fighting the fence every time you move from rough rip cuts to more accurate finish work. That matters on a remodeling site where one saw may be used for subfloor, cabinet fillers, and finished trim in the same day. Tool-free guard and riving knife changes also cut down setup time, and the single-wrench blade change keeps maintenance simple.
From a durability standpoint, this package is set up for jobsite use, not shop-only duty. The saw has an all-metal frame to stand up to transport, loading, and daily use. On-board storage for the guard, riving knife, push stick, fence, and miter gauge helps keep the important pieces with the saw instead of buried in a trailer box. That kind of storage sounds small until you are missing a safety part and the crew is standing around waiting.
The included Milwaukee 48-08-0561 folding stand makes the package more practical for mobile work. It uses a quick-attach latching system so the saw locks onto the stand during use and detaches when it is time to load out. The stand is built from steel, weighs only 15 pounds, folds down for easier storage, and has an adjustable foot to help level the saw on uneven ground. For punch-list work, remodels, and smaller commercial jobs, that portability is a real advantage.
On the system side, this saw is part of the Milwaukee M18 platform and is compatible with ONE-KEY. The ONE-KEY connection gives you tracking, usage visibility, and tool security through the app, including the ability to record the last seen location and remotely lock out the tool if needed. Milwaukee also calls out performance with the M18 REDLITHIUM High Output HD12.0 battery, noting up to 600 linear feet of cutting per charge, though this listing is tool only and does not include a battery or charger.
If you are a pro who needs a portable cordless table saw for framing punch work, remodel carpentry, flooring, sheathing cuts, or general jobsite ripping, this setup makes sense. If you mostly work in a dedicated shop and need maximum table support for large production runs, a bigger stationary saw may still be the better fit. But for contractors who value mobility, decent capacity, and cleaner setup on jobs where power is not always where you want it, this Milwaukee table saw package hits the mark.

If you are using this saw for remodel punch work, keep the guard, riving knife, and push stick in the built-in storage every time you pack out. On a mobile saw like this, the parts you lose are usually the parts that slow the whole next setup.
