DEWALT DCS438B 20v 3 Inch Cut Off-Tool 

Quick tip from a guy that uses exclusively DeWalt tools: No matter what new DeWalt saw you buy, be it this one, the Sawzall, the Circular saw, the full size grinder. the table saw, the miter saw or whatever (Those are just the ones I own): understand that DeWalt makes outstanding tools, but they are not a blade company. Spend a few extra bucks on the day you buy your tool, and pick up some Diablo blades for it. Every one of my saws is black and yellow...with a red blade. That's the color combo you want.

I dont need it...but I want it

Just bought this tool today during a home depot sale. Love it so far, it'd exactly what I've been wanting for cut off tasks.

thanks for the video. just purchased it and this helped me get it up and running.

thank you! Great explanation of basic use of this wonderful tool

Thank you for the video...appreciate the review 👍

I recently got one of these as a gift from a relative & she doesn't know anything about power tools but regardless I greatly appreciated the thought. I was skeptical about this grinder due to it being so small. Even had all the guys at work laughing when brought it out, but I must say I haven't gone back to my Max XR hd angle grinder since. This model is so compact & lightweight makes using a breeze. Obviously not as heavy duty but has gotten every job done. Typically use it with a 3ah or 4ah battery and no problems with it

I love this tool, I had been putting up wire shelves and I go right through them when I have to cut them

Excellent demo of this cutoff tool. I really appreciate the info re the direction of rotation blades. Thanks for sharing.

Best tool unbox, description, and demonstration video of this whole site! Very well timed, and flows so well. I love that he discusses related material like blades and usage experience. Over all so very well done!!! Does this Tube offer talent awards, cuz this is crown of awesome!

Didn't know about the blade direction. Thanks for the video.

New Subscriber here. Appreciate the review. I just bought this a few weeks ago. Going to do a review on it soon hopefully. All the best with your channel and I hope you and yours are well. 🙂✌️❤️

Just got one today, they’re on sale at lowes. Bought a battery charger pack it’s 4.0 and 6.0 batteries and they include one free tool. Had to choose between this and their battery powered rotohammer drill

Great review!!

Nice video, that table is cool also

Good tutorial

I have this (one of the dozen Dewalt tools I have). Should I get an oscillating tool as well or does this tool cover that need? Thanks!!

🤝 thanks muy bien explicado im at home depot I think I'll buy one of these not bad

DeWALT! 💪

The bolt for the top of the wheel that the bolt screw goes into doesn’t sit flush on my blade like yours does. I have to hold us straight into place while I tighten down the screw to make sure it straight and even. After 2 mins of using the screw always flys off. Any idea what I’m doing wrong?

I can see this as the perfect to to remove grout between tiles.

So on the directional discs. If you want to switch from reverse to forward on the fly, you need to take out the disc and flip it each time?

i like it

thankyou for your video, could you share more about your workbench looking good and very efficiency TIA.

Is that guard removable? If i get this tool, id like to be able to put a 4in cut off wheel on it.

I just bought one. It works very well. The dust shroud is normally used for everything other than metal cutting, when it must be removed. What’s odd is that the manual shows a belt hook, or something similar, but it’s not in the package. I don’t understand that as every other Dewalt power tool I’ve bought (a lot!) has it in the box, even for bare tools. So I don’t understand that. Minor thing, but still…

dewalt bore is 3/8 or 9.5mm. the bore adapter is 7/16 = 11.1mm to fit dremel disks. my question is does the 10mm bore bosch disks work on it ?

whats the difference between this and a normal angle grinder except from it being smaller?

Xôu de bola foi muito bom

Can you cut wood a 2x4 for example?

So how do you have a straight line of sight with the dust cover on. With the dust cover on you cannot see the blade to run down a straight line or am I missing something?

great video , wondering how it would do cutting wood , trim board or clad boards / anyone offer an all wood blade...

How does this do on rebar?

Love Canada Merci Québec 😊

I just bought this for my husband and the battery and the charger. Costed me my soul and he went to use it and it freakin BROKE 😢 OMG?!

where can you get the duat extraction attachment from?

Great review. Just bought and used it for the first time. Removing mortar between bricks resulted in tool being covered in dust. Will that harm the tool? ( I'm wearing mask, face shield and gloves).

Duct tape I’ve got the m12, but it’s kinda useless. Thinking about this one.

Can you remove the saw guard?

Just got mine yesterday and one of the discs just would not fit. The manual said not to force it. Even trying it without force would cause large chunks of yellow paint to flake off the inner diameter and foul the threads in my chuck (sticks to the factory oil). It took longer than it should to confirm that it was the correct wheel but wouldn’t have taken nearly as long if it weren’t for the manual basically contradicting reality: You must force it. It will eventually fit fine once enough junk flakes off the inner diameter. I had to clear the threads with tweezers multiple times.

Is it a variable speed trigger?

Has anyone tried it to cut drywall with the dust shroud ?

Is it possible to cut the cement floor?

Can the angle of the head be adjusted

Is the 10ah as big as the 6 and the 8?

Can you cut thick rubber mats with this?

Hello can you use a 18 volt battery as well

it didnt even throw any sparks cutting metal.. :) to prevent all that dust getting on the tool. you can put it in reverse.. so all the dust flys the opposite way.. :)

I'm getting one

Great tool if it was bigger

Hi can you use a 18 volt battery or not

When do you use that little washer

Bought it. It’s a very cool tool, love all the detail it has. My only complaint is the LED light, it is virtually useless. When you begin to cut something, the LED is in a position where it cannot shine any light on what you are actually cutting. I love Dewalt because now they are putting LED lights of ALL their tools…but this LED might as well not be on the tool because it doesn’t light up what u are cutting. LED very very poor design!😡

in the US they sell these for like $170 but in the UK they are almost $500

diablo blades the best

I attach rubber pvc fittings to my dewalt tools so I can put them on any vacuum I have handy

My one vibrates abnormally vibrates, is it normal?

Dewalt blades are incredibly terrible. Diablo is a must.

Крутяк, спасибо за видос и сколько он стоит

Hello bro when is it going to be available in india. Any idea by anyone.

If Dewalt angle grinder can do these works, then what is the purpose of it?

Well you don't lose the depth guard if you don't use the dust collector.. you just don't use the dust collector.......

What happens use this cut wood

¿Se puede cortar madera ? Saludos

La configuracion de la pila le quita lo compacto

Can u buy a wood blade for it

Do they make a stand that would turn this into a mini chop? For plumbers?

So basically like a grinder?

Привет

Здравствуйте 👋как можно у вас купить такую очень хочу

You say it is super powerful because of the 10ah battery. That battery is no different then a 20volt, 5ah battery. The amp hour is the stored energy giving you run time and the 20 V is your power. So any Dewalt 20 V battery will give that tool the same amount of power. Just my two cents worth added here. Cheers

Did you notice that the markings that indicate direction of rotation are wrong? Not a show stopper. Kinda funny actually. Must have been embarrassing for the designer if he ever discovered the error.

Now this or the multi tool ?? 🤔

can you put a 4 inch cut off blade in it?

REVERSE! 😂

i want it so i need it why i want it

I thought this tool had reverse mode… hmmm

Thanks for sharing. The instructions that came with the tool are not useful for me.

Thank you. The manual is poor.

Umm.. what’s the point of this tool. An angle grinder is far superior to that toy.

That honestly looks more dangerous than a grinder. No 2nd handle. Exposed blade on body side for right handed handlers.

Which company is better ? Dewalt or Milwaukee ?
