The Bosch GKS 18V-68-2 Professional cordless circular saw from the PRO series is the ideal combination of high performance, lightweight and advanced safety for demanding carpentry and joinery work. It is powered by a powerful, carbon-free motor that delivers the equivalent power of a mains-powered saw with an input of 1,400 W, enabling fast and smooth cross, rip and mitre cuts in hard and soft solid wood or OSB. Thanks to its high cutting speed and increased resistance to overload, the saw easily handles even tough materials without unwanted jamming. Maximum user protection is ensured by the integrated KickBack Control system, which immediately switches off the motor in the event of a sudden blade jam, complemented by an intelligent brake system and safety lever switch. Working in low light conditions is made easier by practical LED lighting and a clean working environment is ensured by the included extraction adapter.
