Features of circular saws "bison"

Classification and equipment

Circular saws are of the following types:

• small - for small tasks, such circulars can cut to a depth of 40 to 46 mm;
• medium - able to cut to a depth of 50 mm to 55 mm;
• large - can cut to a depth of 65 mm to 70 mm;
• professional circular saws - can cut material, plunging to a distance of up to 140 mm.

The general categories that unite all types of circular hand-held circular saws are for household and professional use. The owner can choose the saw based on the tasks, the amount of work, the available budget for the purchase.

The assembly of original Zubr circular saws for wood is currently carried out either in Russia or in China, since the manufacturer has the saw assembly facilities there. The birthplace of the Zubr brand is Russia. The official representative office and head office of the company are located in the Moscow region, in the city of Mytishchi.

All circular saws can be used at home

However, for professional use, the manufacturer recommends that buyers pay attention to two models:

• ZPD 2000;
• ZPD 1600.

These models, as the most powerful, can be used for intensive work, as well as for production purposes.

In the complete set of the Zubr circular hand saw, the owners are offered the following components:

• guide;
• universal type key;
• tool manual, warranty card;
• saw blade, which can be changed, if necessary, by supplying the same or a different diameter (if provided by the saw options).

Main characteristics of circular saws

Comparison table of the most used circular saws.

Power. As with all construction tools, the main characteristic of circular saws is power, since it is this power that is the key to the smooth operation of the device. Circular saws with more power can cut material faster, and its density can be higher. On the other hand, low-power saws have less weight, thanks to which such a device will be much easier to operate. For example, a 2 kW circular saw will weigh 7 kg, and a 1.2 kW tool will weigh 3.5-4 kg. When choosing the power, you should also consider the size of the blade that will be used to cut the material. The smaller the disc diameter, the lower the power you can choose.
Circular saws are:
low power (up to 0.8 kW);
average power (0.8-1.2 kW);
high power (more than 1.2 kW).

The weight

This parameter is also important. Especially it should be taken into account when you are going to work with a saw for a long time and on weight.

Therefore, if possible, buy a saw with a light weight.
Cutting depth. This characteristic is largely determined by the size of the disc used: the larger the disc, the larger the material can be cut with it. If, in order to save money, you decide to purchase a tool with a small disc diameter, then they will not be able to accurately cut a thick workpiece. Lightweight models that are used for household needs have a cutting depth of 40-50 mm. This size is the most common. For professional work, for example, with a block, it is recommended to use a blade with a cutting depth of 60-70 mm.
The frequency of revolutions. This parameter determines the quality and speed of cutting. The rotational speed largely depends on the diameter of the disc, since it is not important how many revolutions per minute the disc makes, but at what speed its edge moves along the workpiece.

Ability to work at an angle.Most models are designed to cut at a 45 ° angle, but there are saws that can work at an angle of 60 °. You can only change the incline of the cut on one side, because the motor is on the other. On the construction market, there are models in which this parameter can be adjusted from both sides.
Autonomous work. Cordless saws allow you to work without a stationary power supply. Such models are less efficient. Before buying a circular saw with a battery, you need to think carefully, because the battery life of the device lasts for 30-60 minutes, and charging the battery can take about 5 hours.

Tool advantages

The Russian brand is distinguished by a wide range of circular circular saws for household and professional use. Zubr saws differ from imported analogues by the following criteria:

• affordable level of cost;
• advanced service and repair;
• extended unification with spare parts from other manufacturers and replacement equipment.

Among the advantages of the Zubr circular saws:

• compact size;
• the strength and efficiency of heat dissipation of the lightweight metal body;
• modern equipment;
• a system that smoothly starts and stops the electric motor;
• protection against overheating and extreme loads;
• adjustment of working speed, angles and cutting depth.

Unlike a stationary and table circular saw, a hand-held power saw moves freely relative to the material being processed, this principle expands the possibilities for using the tool, but requires more effort.

Electric saws are divided according to their design: with and without a gearbox. In the first version, the saw blade is mounted on the rotor of the electric drive. In the second, the torque is generated through a gear reducer. The circular saw without gear is lighter in weight. Models with a gearbox allow for varying rotational speed and contribute to more efficient use of the sawing part.
