Most Compact* & Most Lightweight* in its Class www.hitachi-koki.com Extended Max Cutting Depth of 6 6 mm *As of March 2015. Among 165mm cordless circular saws made by leading power tool manufacturers (surveyed by Hitachi Koki.) Most Compact *1 & Most Lightweight *1 in its Class Most Compact *1 & Most Lightweight*1 in its Class Extended Max Cutting Depth of mm 66 Lightweight, compact and well-balanced! Quick and easy blade change! Designed with the center of gravity close to the handle, the circular saw offers superior maneuverability and greatly reduces user fatigue! The flat motor housing design with soft material on the surface provides the circular saw with stability when it’s laid on its side. This makes blade change easier and also prevents the workpiece being scratched.

The Silent Mode improves motor efficiency, while lowering the noise. The operation mode automatically switches to the Power Mode when the motor load increases, enabling smooth cutting according to cutting conditions.
