For maximum power and speed

For maximum power and speed

The powerful, brushless EC-TEC motor and the switchable pendulum stroke, provide fast and easy cuts.

Always the right speed

Always the right speed

The large variable speed trigger enables a smooth machine start-up and stepless stroke speed control for maximum controllability.

Reduce blade contact

Reduce blade contact

The saw blade is automatically ejected when the chuck is opened, helping to reduce contact with the blade. The saw blade can immediately be changed quickly and easily, with less risk from sharp edges.

40% less vibration

40% less vibration

The unique anti-vibration system reduces machine vibration by 40%. Its full power is directed into the blade for maximum cutting effiency with less felt vibration and fatigue. This anti-vibration mechanism not only noticeably lowers fatigue but also contributes to a longer-lasting saw and faster cuts.

Work cleaner and easier

Work cleaner and easier

The dust extraction device included in the scope of delivery is attached to the saw table without tools. Unpleasant fine dust and sawing chips are extracted directly at the point of origin when the extractor is connected.

Excellent view of the cut

The integrated LED provides optimal lighting of the work area.

Saw up to the edge

Saw up to the edge

The saw blade can be installed rotated by 180°, enabling cuts up to the ceiling, wall or floor. If flush sawing is required, flexible saw blades are the best option.

For a longer saw-blade life
