The MK-1080 is specially designed to tackle any brick, paver, or masonry job.

High-Torque Motor for Smooth, Powerful Performance
Whether you're a professional contractor or weekend warrior, the CSA-approved MK-1080 is an efficient and user-friendly choice.

Using a high-torque, 1-1/2-horsepower, 120-volt, 7.4-amp electric motor, this compact saw powers through cutting jobs at 6,000 RPM. Its 10-inch blade capacity provides a 3-3/4-inch depth of cut and 16-inch length of cut.

Save Time and Boost Productivity
Fast and efficient, the MK-1080 features a recoil-spring, counterbalanced cutting platform; premium, segmented masonry blade; and smooth-gliding, nylon-wheel assembly to make operations both quick and easy. To minimize downtime and help you stay on track, the maintenance-free, self-lubricating pinion system and gear-box assembly ensure long-term reliability.

Precise 45-Degree Miter Cuts and Easy Plunge Cutting
Accurate and precise, the MK-1080 has a tilting head for 45-degree miter cuts, and a variable-height cutting head that allows for plunge cutting. The sliding, aluminum die-cast cutting table accommodates 18-inch tiles, while a 3/4-inch-diameter chrome-plated, linear guide-bar system ensures smooth feeding.

Reinforced Steel and Cast-Aluminum Construction for Durability
Manufactured with a zinc-plated, reinforced, steel frame and durable, cast-aluminum support components, the MK-1080 is built to last. A heavy-duty on/off switch is easily accessible, and a hinged blade guard makes for fast and easy blade changes, minimizing downtime.

Safe, Portable Design
The MK-1080 is designed for safety and portability. An MK-Safeswitch feature prevents the saw from being operated when the locking key is removed, and its compact size and carrying handles make it easy to transport to any site.

Dimensions and Warranty Information
The MK-1080 measures 33 by 23 by 23 inches (L x W x H), weighs 98 pounds, and is backed by a one-year limited warranty.

This review is from: MK Diamond 153203 MK-1080 1-1/2 Horsepower 10-Inch Brick Paver Saw (Tools & Home Improvement)

I used to use a 14" saw for brick and cultured stone but the weight of those saws are terrible (160 lbs). This saw is so light I can handle it myself and cuts like a dream! 10" Blades are much cheaper too!
