## Questions & Answers

**Q: Whats the difference between the 611z and the 610z?**
A: Here what I found different in the write-up for the The 610Z vs. the 611Z: "The BSS610Z is also equipped with two built-in L.E.D. lights that illuminate the work area for more efficient work, as well as a built-in dust blower to keep the line of cut free of debris." The 611Z doesn't claim to have those features. Somewhere else I saw someone say that the 610Z had a quicker-stopping electric brake.

**Q: cutting metal by switching blades? possible? or has to be the "metal cutting saw"?**
A: Possible, but not a good idea. You should buy a dedicated metal cutting saw. I've got the Makita 120v metal cutting saw and it will amaze you. I've cut steel up to 3/8" with no problems, yes that's over it's rated capacity but its still going strong.

**Q: Is the saw considered as a left hand or a right hand blade?**
A: This saw, like the Skil wormdrive saw, has the blade on the left. It's easier to see the cut line if holding the saw with the right hand. The Skil's motor axis is at right angles to the blade's bolt axis, causing a certain torque/twisting when started. The Skil, some say, is preferred by West Coast builders.Some also say East Coast builders prefer the "sidewinder" design, which is like this saw, except the blade is on the right. Sidewinders have their motor axis parallel to the blade's bolt axis. The saw does not torque or try to flip out of your hand like the wormdrive does. However, you must crane your neck to the right and over the saw to see the line you're following. This saw is a hybrid of the two traditional styles: it has a sidewinder motor position, but a wormdrive's blade position. I have a corded Porter-Cable SawBoss that's set up the same way and I really like it. This cordless saw is the next design phase.

**Q: I understand this is a bare tool, so no battery…but does it come with a blade? If not what's a good all-purpose blade for a newbie? Thanks!!**
A: It has a blade.
