Sawstop CNS175-ATGP52 Contractor 1.75HP Saw with 52” Professional T-Glide Advance Fence, Rails & Extension Table

Key Features

Skin-Sensing SafetyThe SawStop safety system is the big reason many buyers choose this saw. It stops the blade on contact with skin in less than 5 milliseconds and drops it below the table to help turn a serious accident into a minor injury. 52 Inch Rip CapacityThe 52 inch Professional T-Glide Advance Fence gives this table saw the reach and control needed for sheet goods, cabinet parts, and repeatable rip cuts without fence flex. Shop-Ready PowerThe 1.75 HP single-phase motor runs on 120 volts and draws 14 amps, with an optional conversion kit available for 220 volts. That gives smaller shops real table saw performance without jumping straight to a larger cabinet saw setup.

Overview

SawStop CNS175-ATGP52 Contractor 1.75HP Saw with 52″ Professional T-Glide Advance Fence, Rails & Extension Table is a full-size contractor table saw built for woodworkers, remodelers, finish carpenters, and serious DIY users who want pro-level capacity with SawStop safety. This is a table saw designed for ripping, crosscutting, and general woodworking in a home shop or small professional shop. Model Number: CNS175-ATGP52.

The core setup here is what makes this saw matter. You get a 10 inch blade, 1.75 HP motor, and a 52 inch T-Glide Advance Fence system that opens the saw up for handling plywood, shelving, face frame stock, trim parts, and larger glue-up components. Max depth of cut is 3-1/8 inches at 0 degrees and 2-1/4 inches at 45 degrees, which covers common hardwood, framing stock, and bevel work without asking the saw to do something it was not built for.

The fence system is a major selling point, not a throw-in. SawStop’s 52 inch Professional T-Glide Advance Fence is built from heavy-gauge steel and gives you three operating positions, including high, low, and L-fence modes. In practical terms, that means better support for a wider range of cuts, better control on thin or awkward stock, and a fence that locks down square without noticeable deflection. The two magnifying indicators also make setup easier when accuracy matters and you do not want to second-guess the scale.

From a build standpoint, this saw is aimed at users who want precision without stepping all the way into a cabinet saw price bracket. The cast iron main table measures 20 inches wide by 27 inches deep, and with extension wings installed the table grows to 44 inches wide by 27 inches deep. Two steel extension wings are included, along with the 40-1/8 inch by 27 inch extension table for the 52 inch fence setup. The trunnion and arbor are built for precision and stability, while the poly V-ribbed belt helps reduce vibration so cut quality stays consistent.

Dust collection and day-to-day usability are well thought out for a contractor-style saw. The 4 inch dust port gives you standard dust extractor or collector hookup, and the included blade guard is polycarbonate so you can keep an eye on the cut line. The saw also uses a riving knife and a zero-clearance insert with phenolic core and melamine surfaces. Those details matter because they help with cut control, cleaner results, and safer operation when you are switching between common shop tasks.

Power setup is flexible enough for a lot of real shops. The motor configuration on this version is 1.75 HP, 120V, 14A, single phase, and SawStop notes that user conversion to 220V is available with an optional kit sold separately. That makes this a smart fit for buyers starting in a garage or basement shop on standard household power, but who may want to reconfigure later as the shop grows.

Accessory and cut setup flexibility is another reason this saw has a loyal following. It accepts up to an 8 inch dado set with a maximum width of 29/32 inch, though that requires a separate dado brake cartridge and dado insert. SawStop also positions this as one of the most configurable saws in its lineup, with options like mobile base, sliding crosscut table, router table components, dust collection accessories, and cast iron wings. If you are the kind of buyer who wants the saw to evolve with your workflow, that matters.

Who should buy it? If you want a serious woodworking table saw with enough rip capacity for cabinet parts, safer operation than a typical contractor saw, and room to build out a shop around it, this is a strong choice. It is especially well suited to furniture builders, cabinet installers, trim carpenters, remodelers, and committed home-shop users who need accuracy, want better-than-hybrid performance, and value the safety system enough to make it part of the buying decision.

Built for Full-Size Sheet Goods

The reason to step up to the 52 inch rail set is simple: you get the room and fence travel needed for real panel work. If you break down plywood, build cabinets, or cut larger hardwood parts, the extra capacity saves time and makes the saw more useful every day.

• 52 inch max rip capacity to the right of the blade
• 12 inch max rip capacity to the left of the blade with the T-Glide fence
• Extension table measures 40-1/8 inches wide by 27 inches deep

Move It Without Giving Up Stability

One of the advantages of the contractor saw platform is that it is easier to fit into a real working shop than a full cabinet saw. SawStop supports that with optional mobility accessories, so you can reclaim floor space when the saw is not in use.

• Saw body footprint is 25-3/4 inches wide by 27 inches deep with stand installed
• Table saw only weight is 225 lbs
• Assembled weight with 52 inch fence system is 335 lbs

Pro Tip

If you plan to cut dados, order the dado brake cartridge and dado insert with the saw instead of waiting until later. It saves downtime once the saw is assembled and keeps you from trying to use the standard brake setup for a job it is not meant to handle.

Tool Nut’s Take

Tool Nut’s Take

Big capacity, real accuracy, and the safety system people actually buy it for

The SawStop CNS175-ATGP52 Contractor 1.75HP Saw with 52″ Professional T-Glide Advance Fence, Rails & Extension Table is for the buyer who wants a serious woodworking saw and is not willing to treat blade safety like an afterthought.

• Who it’s for: Woodworkers, cabinet guys, remodelers, and dedicated home-shop users who need full-size rip capacity and dependable cut quality.
• Why it stands out: The SawStop brake system is the headline, but the 52 inch T-Glide fence, cast iron work surface, and flexible shop-friendly power setup are what make this saw useful every single day.
• Worth knowing: This is a 1.75 HP contractor saw, not a heavy industrial cabinet saw. For most shops that is a fair trade, but if dado work is on your list, make sure you add the correct dado brake cartridge and insert.
