Description

With the Bosch PKS 55 A Circular Saw, you'll be able to saw steadily and perfectly straight. The saw blade has a decent 160-millimeter diameter. On top of that, the motor rotates the saw blade at a speed of up to 5,600 times a minute, allowing it to penetrate to a depth of 55 millimeters at a 90-degree angle. If you saw at a 45-degree angle, you'll penetrate by up to 38-millimeters. The large foot plate and the soft grip handle makes it easy to control the sawing machine. The PKS 55 A comes with integrated dust extraction that ensures a dust-free working space.

I bought this saw to cut scaffolding wood. The choice fell on this device because of the favorable price.

Unfortunately, there are a few drawbacks to this machine. First of all, the power is disappointing. Sometimes the power is completely lost when things go against him for a while with the wood.

Another review already states that the sizes to set the saw with do not correspond to what you would expect. No drama, just trial and error.

I have the feeling that I still need to learn a few things to set up and operate the device correctly. Unfortunately, there is no clear instruction booklet included. There are a limited number of pictures in the booklet and text to explain things, but no clear instructions for cutting itself.

In short, you'll get the job done with this device, but if you're inexperienced, it's figuring out and experimenting. And that's just not what you want with a circular saw.

Shorten an old oak table of 1.8m by 0.9m along the frame..with a jigsaw no idea. With the help of this Bosch and adjustable guide a cinch.
Never worked with such a device before, but with a clear user manual regarding adjustment options, this not too easy job was neatly done.
Device delivered neatly and invoice by email. 20€ cheaper than in nearby DIY stores. Great service!

A very nice sawing machine, and insanely fast service !!
The Bosch PKS 55 A sawing machine is an easy-to-handle intermediate buddy, strong enough and not so heavy. Saws tight, conductor not tried yet, and connecting a vacuum cleaner is recommended. The saw blade protection is a bit heavy 'on the side', but that is also good because of the wear and tear. the safety. But all in all a nice piece of equipment.

Ordered at half past eleven in the evening (!) it was already there the next day at noon.. That is unprecedented..
That's why my daughter ordered a refrigerator from CoolBlue this week.. at half past ten in the evening, and it was there the next day at 1 o'clock, put in the kitchen for free... This is really special...
