Besides, the saw comes with a positive bevel 22.5-degree and 45-degree stop to prevent the material from shifting out of position. The bevel angles further help the user to get a more accurate cut. Maximum cutting depth of the blade is 2-9/41 cm at 90° and 5 cm at 45°.

Blade Control
As thiscircular saw differs from a jigsaw, this saw has some blade control measures to maximize the users safety. The electric brake stops the blade from moving after it has been released by the trigger. This means that you can make as many accurate cuts as you want without the fear of the blade shifting out of position.
Vibration Control
Our team of experts found that it was very difficult to use the Dewalt DCS573B over long hours. It produced some vibrations when the cutting time exceeded 45 minutes. It’s not surprising considering it is a powerful cordless circularsaw, just like the Rotorazer.
These vibrations can cause severe arm or hand strain if the saw is used for an extended time.
Power
The cordless saw can be paired with either a 20V or 60V battery. Experts recommend the 60V battery as it is more durable than a 20V.
It can provide 77% more power when paired with the FLEXVOLT60V Max battery. The battery is strong enough to power the cordless saw for a prolonged period.
Many Dewalt DCS573B reviews mention that this saw’s weight increases when it includes the battery. It gets even heavier when its the 60V battery. This can make it slightly tough for many users to use the saw effectively, especially for the first time.
Like other Dewalt cordless saws, the saw doesnt include the 20V nor the 60V battery. This was something our team was not happy about. You would have to buy the battery separately which will increase your costs.
Extra Features
The inclusion of a bright LED was a brilliant idea from Dewalt. This new addition improves visibility in low-light environments and at night.
It means that you are no longer limited to working during the day only. This means that you can work any time of the day or night, and you have flexibility in your working hours.
There is also an option to connect a dust extractor or the Dewalt Airlock system to the dust port to minimize dust specks during cutting.
Dewalt DCS573B Price
The price of this model is fair compared to what other brands offer. This saw is well worth the price, considering its cutting capabilities and features.
Remember that no battery is included in the package. It will need to be purchased separately. This will incur additional costs but the overall price is still reasonable compared to other cordless saws.
