Physical & Build
The HS011G is the deepest-cutting cordless conventional circular saw here apart from the 415mm HS013G beam saw, cutting 97mm at 90° with a 260mm blade (101mm with a 270mm blade). Vibration is notably low at 1.4 m/s². It is a heavy-section and framing saw; for general site work the 190mm HS004G is lighter and quicker.
