MAKITA DHS680ZJ 18 V Brushless Cordless Circular Saw

The MAKITA DHS680ZJ 18V LXT Brushless Cordless Circular Saw, Body Only is a cordless circular saw built for wood cutting, carpentry, construction, and renovation work. It runs on an 18V LXT lithium-ion battery. A brushless motor drives the blade to a maximum no-load speed of 5,000 RPM. The 165 mm blade with a 20 mm bore delivers 57 mm of cutting depth at 90° and 41 mm at 45°. As a body-only package, the saw ships without a battery or charger.

A magnesium base plate keeps total weight to 3.1 kg while maintaining rigidity. Soft-grip surfaces and an ergonomic handle reduce strain during extended use. The built-in LED lamp illuminates the cut line, and the dust extraction port connects to a vacuum system for sawdust management. Bevel adjustment permits angled cuts up to 45°, complemented by soft-start electronics, overload protection, and a spindle lock for safe blade changes. A saw blade is included, and the tool carries a three-year warranty.

• Lock-on function: enables continuous cutting without holding the trigger.
• Vibration level of 1.5 m/s² in wood: reduces hand fatigue during extended cutting sessions.
• Sound pressure level of 105 dB: relevant for hearing protection planning on job sites.
• Cutting speed of 2.5 m/s: maintains a consistent feed rate through timber.
• Removable battery: compatible across the Makita 18V LXT tool platform.
