This DeWalt electric circular saw is a rugged tool designed with professional carpenters' needs in
mind. It has a 15 amp motor that produces a whopping 2,075 watts, which is equivalent to 2-3/4
horsepower. In less scientific terms those numbers mean this saw can slice through lumber like a
tornado through a trailer park. If that's a little too fast for you, it also comes with an electric brake
for quick stops. The generous 5-1/2-inch base pivots for depth of cut and bevels on a ball-joint
mechanism that offers smoother, faster adjustments than the simple hinge arrangement typically
found on other saws. It has a bevel capacity of 0 to 50 degrees, and--like the depth-of-cut
gauge--the bevel gauge can be easily recalibrated if the saw takes a tumble on the job. Depth-of-cut
adjustments are made by unscrewing the front handle a bit, adjusting to the desired depth, and
screwing it back down tight. This operation is so smooth it can be done without even changing your
grip on the saw, reducing downtime between cuts. The saw's construction is solid throughout and it
should live a long life, even on the toughest job sites. Blade changes are quick, thanks in part to
the easy-to-reach shaft lock button; however, onboard storage of the blade-changing wrench would
be an improvement. This is a great tool for serious professionals in need of serious cutting power.
At 12.3 pounds, it isn't the lightest model available, but big power doesn't come in small packages,
and 7-1/4-inch sidewinder circular saws don't get any burlier than this. --Brian Trinen
