DEWALT DWS780 12-inch sliding compound miter saw, has been designed to be
precise and accurate enough for fine woodworking, yet durable enough for
framing and deck building. The DWS780 is ideal for a variety of end users,
including cabinet makers, trim carpenters, framers, installers, and many other
professional contractors who require a product that delivers the accuracy,
capacity, durability, portability, and ease-of-use that this saw offers. For
visibility and accuracy when cutting, this saw features the XPS LED light and
cut alignment system that casts a laser-like shadow on the work surface,
showing users where the blade will come in contact with the material. Since it
does not require recalibration over time or when changing blades, this
alignment system can be more accurate and durable than traditional laser
guides. The saw’s dual bevel system includes the ability to bevel right and
left from 0 to 49 degrees with positive stops at 0, 22.5, 33.9, 45, and 49
degrees in both directions, as well as a high visibility bevel scale. The saw
also miters 60 degrees to the right and 50 degrees to the left and features an
adjustable stainless steel miter detent plate with 10 positive stops, allowing
for fast and easy adjustments. A cam lock miter button allows users to lock
angles between detents for versatility on the jobsite. The saw features a
powerful 15 amp motor that delivers 3,800 rpm. For convenience, the power cord
is routed through the rail in the back, eliminating interference with the
slide. Additionally, the saw offers an industry-leading combination of cut
capacities, which includes 6-3/4 inch vertical capacity, 7-1/2 inch nested
crown capacity, 13-7/8 inch horizontal capacity, and exclusive back fence
design that cuts up to a 2 by 16 at a 90 degree angle and 2 by 12 at a 45
degree angle. To simplify and maximize vertical cutting capacity, the unit
includes a rail lock latch for holding the head away from the fence.
