Safer than ever thanks to Stop Control, KickBack Control, and dust extraction: First Bosch cross-cutting guiderail compatible circular saw

GKS 18V-57-2 GX Professional is the first Bosch hand-held circular saw with Stop Control. This new feature can be activated on the control panel and stops the saw automatically as soon as the blade exits the workpiece. This increases user protection across the board, but particularly with longer cuts when the saw is held further away from the body and therefore with less control. The KickBack Control function, which is always activated, uses an integrated sensor to identify when the saw blade is stuck in the workpiece and switches off the motor within a matter of seconds. This feature prevents unexpected kickback and can also reduce the risk of injury. The GKS 18V-57-2 GX Professional also has an integrated Click & Clean adapter for minimizing dust while working. All conventional extractors, including the new GAS 18V-12 MC Professional M-class cordless dust extractor, can be connected up to the tool.
