The Milwaukee M18 FUEL 7-1/4 in. circular saw is a cordless sidewinder saw sold as a tool-only model. It has a POWERSTATE brushless motor that runs at up to 6,000 RPM. REDLINK PLUS intelligence monitors the tool and protects against overload, overheating and over-discharge.
The shoe and guards are cast magnesium, and the saw weighs 7.9 lb. Positive bevel detents at 22.5° and 45° and depth detents at 1/2 in., 3/4 in. and 1-1/2 in. allow quick adjustments. Releasing the trigger activates an electric brake that stops the blade.
An LED work light, a rafter hook and a dust port with a vacuum adapter are built in. The saw works with Milwaukee M18 REDLITHIUM batteries. Runtime is up to 750 cuts per charge with a FORGE HD12.0 battery.
