The DeWALT DCS781B is a cordless 12-inch double bevel sliding miter saw for trim work, framing cuts and general woodworking. It makes crosscuts, bevel cuts and compound cuts. It runs on a single 60V MAX FLEXVOLT battery and is sold as a tool only, so the battery and charger are not included.
A brushless motor drives the blade through a bevel-gear transmission, which reduces the power losses that can occur with belt-drive designs. The no-load speed is 3,800 RPM. The CUTLINE blade positioning system gives an adjustment-free cut line indication. On one FLEXVOLT DCB609 battery, the saw is rated for up to 675 cuts in 3-1/4 in. MDF base molding or up to 255 cuts in pressure treated 4 in. x 4 in. lumber.
The dual-fitting dust port works with DEWALT AIRLOCK extractors. With the included adapter, it also fits standard 1-7/8 in. and 2-1/2 in. wet/dry vacuums. Dust capture is up to 94% when cutting 2x10 SPF with a DWV015 dust extractor and DCB609 battery. The controls are updated for better ergonomics, with easy blade changes, straightforward cut depth adjustment, and quick miter and bevel adjustments.
