Makita 5277B 7-1/4-Inch Hypoid Saw

by Makita

Product Description

From the Manufacturer

It's powered by a 14.4 amp motor, but also features a low noise level--only 87db for quieter operation. The blade line is marked on the blade case as a guide. With its 0 to 50 degree bevel cutting capability, it can cut a 2-by-4 at 50 degree bevel. A heavier gauge means a more durable base design, and there is a ruler on the base for accurate cutting. Includes blade and wrench.

This is another quality product from the great people at Makita. This saw cuts through lumber like no other. Framing custom homes requires quality equipment, and this saw has not let me down. The only complaint I have is the weight (15lbs.), but this is not too bad when compared to other worm drives. If you need a quality framing saw, please do not overlook the Makita.

I've used mine daily for the past 4-5 years, and have not needed to do any maintainance, except replace cut cords. Amazingly it still runs like new. The saw has been through everything from cutting brick/concrete to all sorts of woods. I would highly recommend this saw to anyone who is looking for a dependable well balanced saw.

I bought this instead of the bosch/skil worm-drive and have not regretted it one bit. I have used the Hypoid for everything froming framing work to cutting window sills. Great control, power and precision. Highly recommended.
