The standard guide bars allowed the fence to be moved 25' to the right of the saw blade and 15' to the left of the blade. The rip fence bar extended over the rear edge of the table and the fence locked both front and rear, the rear lock being operated from the front of the fence. The carriage swung on trunions that were large, heavy, and strong with working surfaces completely machined. Dado heads, molding cutters and many other attachments could be used to add to the versatility of the Unisaw. The blade was raised and lowered by another hand wheel at the front of the saw cabinet. The saw blade tilted 45 degrees to the right, operated by a large convenient hand wheel.
With the standard rails and rip fence, it cut to the center of a 50' panel and ripped stock up to 3 1/8' thick. The saw table was 20 x 27 inches with optional cast iron extension wings that made it 36' wide by 27' deep. In 1949, the Delta-Milwaukee 10' Tilting Arbor Circular Saw was a completely self-contained motor and driving mechanism in a strong steel cabinet type base.
