What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

The listing describes the warranty both as a lifetime warranty and as a five-year warranty on material and workmanship. It also conditions the lifetime claim on registration within 30 days and states that registration must occur through December 31, 2025. Confirm the applicable coverage and current registration terms before buying. The blade is described as 5-7/8 inches in the title and product description, while a separate detail lists its length as 4.13 inches. The battery-count field says “Nonstandard Battery batteries required.” despite the tool-only listing. These listing details are inconsistent or unclear, not confirmation of a product defect.

Frequently asked questions

Are a battery and charger included?

No. The title identifies this as tool only, and the product description says batteries and chargers are sold separately.

What materials and tasks is the saw intended for?

The listing presents it as a metal-cutting saw for materials including sheets, conduit and struts.

What blade and cutting capacity are stated?

The product description specifies a 5-7/8-inch, 36-tooth carbide blade and a 2-1/4-inch cut capacity. A separate detail lists blade length as 4.13 inches, so the stated blade dimensions are inconsistent.

What warranty applies?

The listing is inconsistent: it describes a limited lifetime warranty subject to registration within 30 days and through December 31, 2025, but also lists a five-year warranty on material and workmanship. Confirm the terms that apply to this purchase.
