Product Description

Sawing through lumber for a construction job can be tedious, but not when you’re working with Ridgid. Their brushless circular saw, the Gen5X R8653, is a lumber slicing behemoth with plenty of features packed onto its metal encased motor that will improve your jobsite experience. On top of the 3,800 RPM pushed out with its powerful motor, you get to harness it with a fully adjustable foot. You can select a bevel angle up to 56 degrees, letting you cut much more than simple straight planks. You can also change the depth, which is important to reduce lumber kickback. On top of those handy adjustment options, there are a couple items on this saw that improve working visibility. An LED light near the front will shine on your subject while casting minimal shadow, letting you work in dimmer environments than usual. Additionally, a blower attached to the side will keep sawdust away, so you can see any markings you’ve made on the wood so you can cut straighter lines. On top of all of these, this also has Ridgid’s micro texture surface found on their other 18V tools, giving you maximum power in slippery conditions. The R8653 circular saw has the power and features both the homeowner and professional need to get a job done right.

    I'm a corded power tool guy, but thought this was a good way to dip into the cordless world without spending to much money. I like the idea of getting a thoroughly tested item and giving second chances lol. Tool works fine,
    exceptional run time. Use a good blade, if you want any kind of decent performance. Far exceeds what I spent in terms of cutting ability & run time.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great circular saw!
    Reviewed in the United States on July 23, 2017
    Verified Purchase
    I've used this saw on a couple of projects around the house and it worked flawlessly. Being battery operated, the blade stops on a dime as soon as the trigger is released. That took some getting used to because I felt like I was doing something wrong. I'm used to the blade spinning to a stop like with the corded variations. Speaking of batteries... all of my power tools are the Rigid brand so it was nice not having to buy an additional battery. I like the safety feature on the trigger so there's no accidental blade activations. I highly recommend this saw and Rigid produces good products. Perfect if you're looking for a good circular saw that doesn't require an outlet.

    Great saw. Definitely a great addition if you already have ridgid batteries from other tools, or if you just want a great cordless. I just cant believe how long the battery life is on it, amazing, especially compared to its predecessors. Took a few cuts to get used to the blade being on the right, im used to running worm drive saws, but not a problem, and the motor fan works fantastic for keeping dust off of your cut line.

    The saw works like I new it would, no problems, BUT You cannot get the Life time Warrantee if you buy it here. That is if the vendor is ICM Outdoor Innovations. I called Rigid customer service after I bought it should have before.
    The lady a very nice person checked they're List of Authorized venders and ICM Outdoor Innovations are not on the list. So no Lifetime Warrantee. The Battery I bought from a different vendor was the same no deal.

    Great price. Recommend getting a 4 or 5 amp hour battery, as I found the 2 amp hour batteries would only make about 6 cuts on 48 in laminate flooring. The saw itself is well constructed and I have enjoyed using it.
