Sierra de caimán DeWALT DCS397N-XJ 54V litio-ion 5,6kg

The DeWALT Alligator saw DCS397N-XJ is a cordless heavy-duty cutting tool powered by a 54V FLEXVOLT Li‑Ion system to deliver corded performance without a cable. Weighing 5.6 kg and measuring 918 mm × 219 mm, the saw is designed for cutting masonry materials such as Class 12 clay block (Poroton) and other construction elements, providing durable operation for professional jobs.

Advantages

Durable high-power brushless motor provides sustained performance for demanding applications. Two long-life saw blades run in opposite directions to prevent material movement during cutting. Dust-sealed gearcase and bearings increase lifetime and reduce maintenance needs, while the aluminium gearcase housing keeps weight down and improves durability. A quick and easy blade changing system with onboard tool storage minimizes downtime. Ergonomic overmoulded rear handle and bale handle improve handling and reduce user fatigue. A lock-off switch adds a layer of safety during handling and transport.

Suitable for

• Cutting Class 12 clay block (Poroton) and similar masonry units
• Masonry and construction site cutting tasks

How to use

Install a compatible 54V FLEXVOLT Li‑Ion battery and ensure it is fully charged before operation. Fit the appropriate saw blades and check they are seated correctly in the opposing arrangement to prevent material movement. Secure the workpiece, adopt a stable stance, and engage the lock-off switch as required. Start the tool, allow the brushless motor to reach operating speed, and guide the saw steadily through the material using both handles for control. After cutting, release the trigger, remove the battery for transport or maintenance, and store blades using the onboard tool storage if applicable.

Recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment (eye, ear and respiratory protection, gloves). Select blades matched to the material, avoid forcing the saw—let the tool and blades cut at their intended speed—and follow regular cleaning and lubrication intervals for sealed gearcase and bearings to maintain performance.
