Ever cut Hardiebacker cement boards or fiber cement siding with your circular saw and are tired of the mess and dust created from dust flying all over the place? Skilsaw has the solution for that with a new Skilsaw 7-1/4″ sidewinder circular saw for cutting Fiber cement.
What makes this saw well suited for cutting fiber cement boards is the integrated dust collection system as it uses long 8 foot vacuum hose connected directly to the upper blade guard of the circular saw. When attached to a vacuum, this saw will vastly reduce dust created from cutting fiber cement boards. This will not only cut down on the mess created by all the dust but makes it safer for the user since breathing the silica dust is harmful. I’d still suggest to use dust masks or respirators to be on the safe side.
The saw’s no-mar cord and hose sleeve keeps these items protected from the cutting surface and makes handling the tool more convenient so users can focus on the job at hand.
You still get the quality you expect from the Skilsaw brand with strong yet light magnesium construction for a saw that weighs only 9 lbs and 15 amp dual-field motor for performance and durability.
