Why this one
01
310 mm crosscut
Cuts 90 mm deep at 90°, and 165 mm vertical against the fence.
02
Regenerative braking
Recovers energy on every stop for more cuts per charge.
03
XPS shadow line
LED shows the exact cut line with no calibration.
04
50° / 60° mitre
Double bevel to 49° in both directions.
The story
Workshop accuracy at the point of work
Second-fix carpenters, joiners and flooring crews want a large mitre saw where the work is, not in a van with an extension lead. The DCS781 gives full 305 mm capacity on battery: 310 mm wide at 90 mm deep, 165 mm on the fence, and double bevel to 49° for crown and skirting.
Runtime and repeatability
Regenerative braking recovers energy as the blade stops, stretching runtime; DeWalt quotes up to 675 cuts in 83 mm skirting on one 9 Ah pack. The XPS LED casts the blade's shadow onto the workpiece, so the cut line is always true without adjusting a laser. Dual horizontal rails keep the head rigid at full extension.
Part of a cordless fit-out
It runs on FLEXVOLT batteries shared with the table saw, grinder and extractor. Base extensions, a stabiliser and a material clamp are included. Because large mitre saws are often needed only during fit-out, this model is also part of our rental fleet.
