Makita DHS680 Cordless Circular Saw
Product description
The Makita DHS680 is an 18-volt cordless circular saw equipped with a brushless motor that cuts and rips lumber without extension cords – decking boards, studs, and panels can be cut to precise measurements anywhere in your yard. With a 165 mm blade, the cutting depth is 57 mm at a straight angle, so a 2x4 can be cut in one pass. Automatic speed control keeps the cut consistent even under load, and an LED light and blower keep the cutting line visible. Bevel adjustment up to 50 degrees handles miters and bevels. The saw works excellently with a guide rail, allowing panels to be ripped straight as if on a table saw – rent a Makita guide rail for the same pickup. A lightweight and precise choice for deck projects, fence renovations, and cabin construction.

Frequently asked questions
Does the saw cut a 2x4 in one pass?
Yes – the 57 mm cutting depth is sufficient for 48 mm thick lumber in a single pass.
Can the saw make straight cuts on panels?
With a guide rail, yes – rent our Makita guide rail for the same pickup, and plywood and particle boards will be ripped perfectly straight.
How long does the battery last for sawing?
Tens of meters of cutting line per charge – the day's cuts for a deck project can be handled easily with the included charger.
Can a vacuum cleaner be attached to the saw?
Yes, the dust extraction port fits our construction vacuum cleaner – when sawing indoors, it keeps dust under control.
