DeWalt D28715 14-inch quick-change chop saw

The DeWALT D28715 mitre saw is a single-bevel power saw intended for accurate cross and angled cuts in wood and similar materials. It is driven by a 2200 W motor that delivers up to 4000 RPM at no-load, supplying consistent cutting power for repetitive tasks. The saw accepts a 355 mm diameter blade with a 2.5 mm plate thickness and provides a maximum cross cut capacity of 140 x 140 mm and a compound cut capacity of 120 x 120 mm at 45°. With a compact footprint and a weight of 18 kg, the unit is designed to sit securely on a workbench or stand while remaining transportable for jobsite use.

Advantages

The high-power 2200 W motor ensures stable blade speed under load to maintain smooth, clean cuts. The 355 mm blade diameter and specified plate thickness give a balance of cutting reach and rigidity for precise results. A single-bevel design simplifies setup for common angled cuts while the machine’s overall dimensions and weight make it suitable for workshop or on-site use without excessive bulk. Built with practical cutting capacities, the saw accommodates common framing and finishing stock sizes.

Suitable for

• Cross cutting timber, boards and mouldings
• 45° angled cuts for trim and frame work
• Workshop and portable jobsite cutting applications
• Repetitive cuts where stable motor speed is required

How to use

Secure the saw on a stable workbench or compatible stand and ensure the work area is clear of obstructions. Fit a suitable 355 mm blade rated for the material to be cut and tighten the arbor according to the manufacturer’s torque recommendations. Set the required cutting angle and lock the bevel or mitre stops if applicable. Position the workpiece against the fence, hold it firmly or clamp if necessary, then start the motor and allow the blade to reach full speed before advancing the saw through the cut. After completing the cut, raise the arm and wait for the blade to stop before removing the material or making adjustments.

Recommendations

Use blades matched to the material and finish required; finer-tooth blades for clean finishing cuts and coarser blades for faster rough cuts. For safety and optimal performance, wear appropriate protective equipment, ensure adequate dust extraction or collection, and follow routine blade and machine maintenance schedules.
