Summary: IT LOOKS A GOOD SAW ,BUT ITS NOT UP TO THE JOB.
Comment: I had an old Black and Decker Industrial saw which was obsolete .Having purchased several Milwaukee tools over the years I thought I couldn't go wrong by purchasing another tool from them.Boy was I wrong.
The first short coming was with the quich change blade nut .By hand I could not get the nut tight enough to prevent the blade from tearing out the blades mandrel.Lucky for me the old fashioned nut was included so using the enclosed wrench I was able to get it tight enough so the saw would work.
Since I had alot of Rebar to cut I tightened the quick change vise in it perpenticular position.In the course of my work I found the position kept chaging and I had to keep resettin it and tightening the quick change handle.The only way I could keep it in place was by pounding with a hammer to tighten it sufficiently.I'll probably change it out to a bolt and nut which would work much better.
I also found that while cutting the many lengths of 3/4" rebar that the saw would slow down and I would have to let up on the pressure so the saw could speed back up.This was annoying to me since I didn't have to do this with my old B&D saw .I would cut all of the way thru without slowing down.
The final problem was the quick release on the vise handle which for me I could never get it to release and I ended up breaking ot off and now have to crank the vise in and out for changes in stock thickness.
All in all I would look else where in the future for my chop saw needs .
This one is not it.
To make matters worse Milwaukee now makes this saw in Taiwan instead of the USA ,but looks like price doesn't reflect this.

Summary: Milwaukee Cutoff Machine
Comment: This have performed very well. Seems to be well built and solid. A full swing of angles on the clamp to the right and left both would be nice. The quick release is great.
This saw has done everything we've wanted it too for the most part. Been used on pipe, various sizes of tubing, channel & angle iron plus re-rod.

Summary: Excellent!
Comment: built a rotisserie for my 1969 Porsche 911 with it. Excellent quality all the way around. Get this one vs. the DeWalt.

Summary: MADE IN TAIWAN...and it's starting to show
Comment: When I buy a Milwaukee power tool I expect the best that money can buy, and I am more than happy to pay for it. Unfortunately, this tool is not worthy of the Milwaukee name. I bought the unit six months ago for a light-gauge steel construction project. Here are my observations:
+ Heavy. I agree with other reviewers - it has a nice, solid base and rigid vise.
+ Ergonomic. The D-handle and power switch are great.
- Excessive vibration. Roughest running chop saw I have ever used.
- Mediocre power. All other Milwaukee tools, and other brand chop saws I have used, have plenty of power. This one is lacking.
- Bearing chatter. Major cause for concern given that the saw has only been in service 6 months - and 6 easy months at that. It is getting so bad that sometimes the saw just bogs down and refuses to cut.
I checked the box and sure enough, it has a little sticker bearing the words, "MADE IN TAIWAN." If I had wanted some cheap piece of junk from Asia, I could have gotten it from Harbor Freight for half the price. Milwaukee, what have you done?
Customer Rating:
Summary: Heavy Duty!
Comment: This is a very brawny, well made tool. Much better than the competition (the only one I've seen that is even close is the DeWalt, but it is no competition.) A typical Milwaukee tool--excellent!
