The new saw combines three exclusive innovations: the Powerstate brushless motor, Redlithium battery pack, and Redlink Plus intelligence. However, to deliver the first 18V rear handle circular saw that generates the power of 15 amp corded, Milwaukee re-engineered these critical cordless components to deliver the best performance catered to this tool and its applications.
The brand-new Powerstate Brushless Motor delivers 5,800 RPM to rip through tough applications without bogging down. A redesigned Redlink Plus Intelligence package ensures maximum performance of the saw under load and prevents against overload and overheat.
When equipped with Milwaukee’s new M18 Redlithium High Output HD12.0 Battery, the saw can power through up to 570 cuts on just one charge, eliminating the hassle of cords or constant switching-out of multiple battery packs, while exceeding the performance of higher voltage solutions in the industry. The new High Output HD12.0 Battery provides 50% more power, runs 50% cooler, and delivers 33% more run-time than the M18 Rredlithium HD9.0 Battery. In conjunction with Redlink Plus Intelligence and the Powerstate Brushless Motor, the High Output Battery allows users to push the saw hard and work all day, delivering more work-per-charge than any other professional power tool system.
The saw also features a cast magnesium construction to reduce the weight of the tool without sacrificing durability. In addition, it boasts numerous advantages over corded saws in its class, including an electric brake to quickly stop the blade after a cut, as well as gears that don’t require oiling.
For added utility, the saw features an LED work light to help make more accurate cuts and a multi-sized rafter hook for easy storage.
