The Makita DHS680 18V LXT 165mm Brushless Circular Saw from ITS is as versatile, durable as it is reliable delivering precision cuts.
Designed with a left-hand mounted blade that ensures increased visibility of the workpiece, the DHS680 delivers a maximum cutting depth of 57mm. For cleaner working, air is drawn through the front of the tool to aid with the removal of dust and debris at the point of creation allowing you to maintain a clear view of your work.
With automatic speed control, the DHS Circular Saw includes an ergonomic and narrow handle to ensure a good grip as well as increasing optimal control over the tool.
A dual LED lighting system illuminates the saw blade as well as the cutting line to keep you on task with ease.
Compatible with a guide rule, the saw includes protective gear housing, made of cast magnesium to offer long working life. The saw also includes Automatic Torque Drive Technology (ADT) which will automatically adjust the cutting speed according to load conditions.
Thanks to the brushless motor, the DHS680 saw delivers a no load speed of 5000rpm and also offers a 50° angled cutting depth of 37mm (41mm at 45°)
At the heart of this circular saw is the brushless motor that allows you to use the tool efficiently. As part of the design, the tool utilizes every bit of battery power when you need, all while reducing the need for ongoing maintenance by reducing the amount of heat generated and working more efficiently.
The technology in creating a brushless motor system allows for perfect symmetry between battery power and usage ensuring you get all the power you need, when you need it.

Faulty...
Posted by Kenny Graham on 22nd Jun 2025
I’m very disappointed with the product I have received. After only a couple of weeks of use the saw is not working properly. The saw is vibrating when the blade spins causing it to move from the cutting line and giving a poor cut. I would hope this product can be replaced with a new one.
