Dewalt Type 2 vs Type 1 scrollsaw DW788. The main difference is how the motor was made and designed. Type 2 or Type 1 refers to the motor type rather than the scrollsaw itself. Type 2 uses permanent magnets as stator as oppose to Type 1 which uses coils as stator in its motor. Power Off the scrollsaw. Just put any ferrous metal (eg steel) on the motor case, if it got magnetised/attracted, the motor is Type 2. Due to permanent magnet inside the motor casing. Type 2 motors are made in Taiwan. Type 1 motors are made in Canada.
