Makita unveils new brushless circular saw


MAKITA UK has launched the new DRS780Z 18Vx2 185mm Brushless Circular Saw as part of its LXT range. This latest addition to Makita’s extensive cordless machinery portfolio includes Makita’s Automatic Torque Drive Technology for optimum operation.


The DRS780Z 18Vx2 185mm Brushless Circular Saw LXT has been designed with ease of use in mind. The tool includes Makita’s Automatic Torque Drive Technology (ADT), which automatically adjusts the tool’s cutting speed according to the load conditions. This ensures that the saw is always cutting at the correct speed and continues to work at its optimum level.


Driven by a Brushless Motor, the DRS780Z also benefits from minimal maintenance. As the motor does not utilise carbon brushes, friction is reduced - this results in fewer issues due to wear and eliminates the cost of replacement brushes.


The DRS780Z has a maximum output of 1,700W and is powered by two 18V Lithium-Ion batteries – totalling 36V, providing extended run times and less downtime, and massively improving on- site productivity. Makita’s 18V batteries can also be interchanged across other Makita tools, providing continued on-site flexibility.


The DRS780Z is a body only machine.


Matt Chilton, Product Manager - Tools at Makita, said: “Makita’s new Brushless Circular Saw offers a number of key benefits for operators. Firstly, the inclusion of Makita’s ADT means that the saw can cut through materials effortlessly, improving ease of use and on-site productivity. Operators can also benefit from Soft Start – which prevents the tool from kicking when making initial contact with the material – as well as the rear handle design, which provides stability and increased control for those ripping through large sheets of timber.”

Norton Clipper’s new mini masonry saw to boost summer sales


NORTON Clipper has introduced an all new masonry saw to its range, promoting safer and smarter working, in order to help distributors to boost sales throughout the summer months.


Lower back pain is becoming a leading cause of lost workdays and disability in the UK. Using a handheld saw for prolonged periods of time can quickly begin to take its toll on any tradesperson, and even a masonry saw can be problematic when lifting and transporting from one place to another. Plus, a handheld saw is often in use close to the body, creating the very real possibility of serious injury if the user slips or accidently moves.


Norton Clipper’s CM35 mini masonry saw is ergonomically designed to be compact and lightweight, ideal for cutting at ground level, putting less pressure on the joints, muscles and back. This much- needed solution is a must for merchants


and stockists to promote in time for summer renovations.


Weighing in at just 40 kilograms and measuring around 30% smaller than other masonry saws in the Norton Clipper range, the CM35 is a modest, portable machine that performs just as well as its larger Norton Clipper counterparts.


With sleek dimensions of just 730mm x 286mm x 282mm, the CM35 Mini Clipper holds key advantages over more heavy-duty machines – allowing users to cut building materials closer to the point of installation, minimising any bending or lifting and therefore decreasing strain on the body, as well as improving efficiency and workloads on site.
