Powerful fan and adjustable nozzle remove dust as you cut, sending it directly to a contained bag—no external vac setup, hoses, or specialty tools required.
-
Meets or exceeds silica dust exposure requirements for most indoor and enclosed site work, supporting OSHA compliance and healthier workspaces.
Engineered for Precision and Power
-
Cuts up to 4.8" deep—almost matching 14" wet saws—thanks to optimized gearbox, pulley placement, and a 60mm flange design that maximizes usable blade depth.
-
Semi-automatic SmartTension™ system maintains perfect belt tension, reducing maintenance and maximizing runtime per job.
Legendary Husqvarna Reliability
-
Digital ignition, DuraStarter™, decompression valve, and Air Purge for easy starts—even after long storage or cold weather.
