This DeWalt DCS375B XTREME 12V MAX* cordless brushless bandsaw is a lightweight and compact tool, weighing just 6.45 lbs. It comes with an integrated guard, making it perfect for overhead and one - handed cutting tasks. The package includes a DCS375 12V MAX bandsaw, a 14/18 TPI blade, and a blade tracking wrench. The variable - speed trigger gives you excellent control when cutting through tough materials. You can easily adjust the speed to match the material. The integrated hang hook allows you to hang the saw between cuts, protecting the front handle and base from damage. Changing the blade is a breeze with the toolless blade change lever. The bright LED with a 20 - second delay lights up dark work areas. The on - board wrench helps with single - point blade tracking adjustments. With a 1.75 - inch cutting capacity, it can handle small - sized metal diameters on the jobsite, and there's even some extra room to cut 1 - 5/8 inches comfortably. The maximum initial battery voltage (without a workload) is 12 volts, and the nominal voltage is 10.8. It's great for various applications like cutting strut, conduit, black iron pipe, threaded rod, rebar, angle iron, and metal studs.
Using this DeWalt bandsaw is easy. First, make sure the battery is fully charged. Then, attach the blade if it's not already installed. You can use the toolless blade change lever to loosen the blade tension and replace the blade quickly. When you're ready to cut, hold the saw with one hand (thanks to the integrated guard for safety). Use the variable - speed trigger to adjust the cutting speed according to the material you're working on. For harder materials, go slower; for softer ones, you can increase the speed. In between cuts, hang the saw using the integrated hang hook to prevent any damage to the handle or base. When it comes to maintenance, keep the blade clean and sharp. You can use the on - board wrench to make blade tracking adjustments regularly. Also, store the saw in a dry place to avoid any moisture damage. Remember, the maximum initial battery voltage is 12 volts, but the nominal is 10.8 volts, so don't over - stress the battery. With proper use and maintenance, this bandsaw will serve you well for a long time.
