The DHS660Z 165mm Circular Saw from Makita is an essential addition to any woodworker's workshop, or even DIYer's garage. This model has an aluminium base with 45° & 50° bevel cutting capacity, as well as a blower function to remove debris from the line of cut & a lock-off button for safer operation. Also included are an LED joblight, an electric break to stop the tool near-instantly in order to keep you safer at work; a soft-start system that eases any initial excessive force to allow you time to properly control the unit, before it reaches full power, which saves stress & strain on your joints, & a brushless motor, which reduces friction & increases the efficiency of energy transfer, meaning that your tool will be able to do more on a single charge! Another especially useful addition is the Automatic Torque Drive Technology, which changes the cutting speed according to load conditions, optimising cutting & increasing battery performance, too.
