Power & Motor

The WX439L is corded, requires 120 V, and draws 4.5 amps. In the U.S., standard residential circuits are 120 V, 15 A, which will support the.

The DCS571B is cordless and runs on 20 V batteries.

The DCS571B has a motor that spins at 4500 rpm and the WX439L has a motor that spins at 4100 rpm. You shouldn’t get too caught up in the RPM numbers, since the manufacturers test them under ideal conditions, and they don’t have a direct correlation with the saw’s real-world ability to handle various types of material.

The WX439L has a direct drive motor.

Blades & Capacity

Both products take 4 1/2” diameter blades and have a 3/8” arbor.

Both circular saws can bevel the blade up to 45°. The DCS571B can cut up to 1 9/16” at 90°. The WX439L will cut up to 1 11/16” deep at a 90° angle and is able to cut up to 1 1/8” at an angle of 45°.

When beveling the saw, most circular saws will have positive stops at common angles such as 45° and 90°. This ensures you are making precise cuts. Some saws have additional stops at other angles.

The DeWalt has stops at 90 Degrees.

Both saws have the blade mounted on the left side of the saw. Right-handers sometimes find it easier to see and control blades mounted to the left, while left-handers might find the same true for right-mounted blades.
