Product description

- Capacity
These things make this saw perfect. That is why the saw is advantageous and user-friendly. Actually, these things are our main focus point of the Skil 5280-01 review.
Ok, it is time to explain these important topics.
Motor
A motor is the main source of power for a saw. As circular saw, Skil 5280-01 motor has to be a powerful motor. And the Skil brand has included a powerful motor with 15 AMP.
This motor produces enough power to rotate the blade smoothly.
You will get perfect power from the motor. Then you will have no complaints about power. It works without any trouble. Great!
Ohhh… the motor gets power directly from the electricity.
Also, another source of power is voltage and wattage. Do you know that?
Yeah! The machine is 60V, I mean voltage is 60V. And the wattage is 30.
So, 15 Amp, 60V and 30W together make this saw highly powerful.
So, the saw is able to cut any hard materials. Also, the saw can tolerate any pressure from electricity.
Really, if you buy this saw then you can get more advantages from the motor.
Other than that, there are still other issues.
Blade
Ohhoo… the Skil 5280-01 circular saw has a wheel blade which is very sharp. The blade is able to cut any type of material.
Also, the secret of sharpness and cutting capacity is the sharp teeth. The blade has 24 teeth and it is 7 ¼ inch.
Ohh… the blade is covered by iron protection. It ensures the safety of your hands.
The blade is rotated by the motor. Then the blade rotates with high speed. There is no chance of making a mistake in the cutting no matter what material you cut.
Because this saw blade is made with the perfect combination.
Besides, the blade changing system is also easy. Spindle lock and on-tool wrench make the blade changing easy. Even any new person can do it.
Weight
Ahh… the weight of the Skil 5280-01 circular saw is only 8.7 pounds. Lightweight?
Yeahh, it is lightweight. Is it bad?
Yeah, bad……. huh…
Wait… just I have fun with you. Lightweight is perfect for a circular saw. And we have to exclude the heavyweight when we buy a circular saw.
But why?
Look with attention, if you use a heavyweight circular saw then you cannot work properly and cannot work long time.
Because we use a circular saw keeping at hands. That is why a heavyweight saw cannot give comfort. Rather, you will feel pain in your hands when you work.
As a result, you will be bored with your heavyweight saw. Then this saw will not be workable for you.
So, you have to know about this matter before buying a circular saw. Try to buy a circular saw with power and lightweight.
Ok. The Skil 5280-01 is a lightweight saw. So, the saw is perfect for you. Also, it is powerful along with the light weight.
By the way…
A bag will come with the saw. You can carry this saw easily since it is lightweight.
Structure
The structure is also good with cool specifications, features, and performance. The structure is made for long-lasting performance.
See the image of the saw, you can see a handle in the saw which is very comfortable. Also, a switch is in the handle. You can start the machine with the switch.
The body of the saw is perfect and strong. The rust cannot damage the saw. Also, the structure will provide you long-lasting performance.
