More info from DeWalt on the XR FLEXVOLT DCS520

The XR FLEXVOLT DCS520 is the first Plunge Saw to feature a Brushless 54V Motor, making it one of the most powerful cordless plunge saws available. The DCS520 is extremely accurate making it ideal for general carpentry and woodworking, with particular suitability towards cabinet making, kitchen fitting or hard wood floor installation. The DCS520 plunge saw is quick and easy to adjust and features accurate bevel to 47 degrees, twin edge track system, a comfortable ergonomic rubber grip for superior control and the parallel link plunge mechanism. The DCS520 plunge saw also benefits from Airlock dust extraction port and is compatible with a range of DEWALT dust extractors.
