If you buy a saw, a laser system. Work outside the framework of the electric saws and work, even if the timber is not active. This is a good security measure. Had no problems with the blade or the social divide, with the second reviewer. Slide works well and is a very important part of the property. Mitra and adjustment is easy to let things go for sure. DW718 is much quieter than the old Makita direct supervision. Chain brake stops the blade quickly and the blade guard back quickly. Both are important for safety, as they should. Carbide cutting smoothly and was much better than you might expect the OEM piece. I changed the blade LU91R012 Freud, but use the OEM cutting the web of material potentially damaging. The only drawback that I have a chip collection system to be found. Most power tools, because it considers a number of views, not bad job of collecting dust. My old Makita was one of the best, but the new DW718 is a bad job is dusty. In addition, the event was a significant improvement, and fits in my shop. Dewalt DW718 to all the high-quality combination of high capacity horizontal sliding .need advise
