Circular saw DeWALT DCS572NT — 18 V Li‑Ion, brushless, 184 mm blade, 58 mm depth (90°), 57° bevel

The DeWALT DCS572NT is a cordless circular saw designed for portable cutting tasks across construction, renovation and woodworking projects. Fitted with an 18.4 cm (approx. 7.25") blade and a no-load speed up to 5500 RPM, this saw delivers consistent cutting performance for crosscuts, rip cuts and angled cuts. A battery-powered design removes the need for a power cord, improving mobility on site and making the tool suitable for use in locations without convenient mains access. The saw’s yellow housing provides clear visibility in workshop and jobsite environments.

Advantages

The DCS572NT combines cordless convenience with a compact, lightweight form factor that aids manoeuvrability when cutting panels, boards and timbers. High blade speed supports clean, efficient cutting through a range of common building materials. Adjustable bevel and depth settings enable accurate 45° bevel cuts and controlled maximum cutting depth. Absence of a fixed cord reduces trip hazards and allows easier repositioning during repetitive cuts.

How to use

Before use, fit a compatible circular saw blade suitable for the material and secure the battery according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Set the required cutting depth and, if necessary, adjust the bevel angle to 45° for angled cuts. Support the workpiece firmly and mark the cut line. With the saw positioned so the blade guard and baseplate sit flat on the material, start the tool and allow the blade to reach full speed before progressing along the cut at a steady pace. Maintain both hands on the tool handles and follow basic safety practices including eye and hearing protection.

Recommendations

Use blades rated for the intended material and ensure correct battery charge levels for consistent performance. For repetitive or heavy cutting tasks, select a higher-capacity battery pack to reduce downtime. Regularly inspect the blade, guard and baseplate for wear or damage and clean dust from vents to maintain cooling and motor life.
