DEWALT DWS7085 Miter-Saw LED Work Light System

DEWALT DWS7085 Miter-Saw LED Work Light System

Product Description

Designed to provide the benefits of a miter saw laser line generator without requiring time-consuming recalibration before each project, the DEWALT DWS7085 miter saw LED work light system casts a shadow from your saw blade onto your cutting surface, which acts as a guide. This allows you to cut quickly and accurately, and it makes alignment tasks easy. This system has the added benefit of illuminating your work surface for improved visibility, safety, and productivity. The DEWALT DWS7085 makes use of a separate power supply, so you can use it whether or not the blade is being operated. This LED system bolts onto the pre-wired power supply and is only compatible with the DWS780 DEWALT miter saw.

  • Bright L.E.D. technology delivers enhanced visibility
  • Illuminates Work Surface for increased productivity
  • Blade Shadow cut line delivers fast accurate alignment
  • No adjustments required for accurate repeatable cuts
  • DEWALT Miter Saws are pre-wired to accept power supply.; Designed exclusively for use on the DW713: Type 1, DW715: Type 1 & 2, DW716: Types 1 -4, DW717: All Types, and DW718: All Types.

DeWalt DWS7085 is a great product May 27, 2008

The DeWalt DWS7085 LED worklight system is fantastic. I was able to install it in about 10 minutes and it works great. It not only shows the blade shadow for precise cuts, it also lights up the work surface. The light could be a little brighter as I sometimes use the saw outdoors in better than shop lighting. I prefer it to a laser as it shows both sides of the cut and does not need any adjustment to be precise. Great addition to a great saw.

This takes all the guessing out of cuts! May 3, 2008

I wasn't quite sure if this was going to be a wise investment or not but after the first time of using it I was SOLD! When you turn the light on as the saw approaches the material you get an exact shadow of what is going to be removed. This takes a lot of the guessing and repositioning out of my day now and I couldn't imagine not having it now.

Big thumbs up! March 13, 2009
Here are the high points...
Super easy installation - the saw is prewired to accept the light and power supply.
No batteries or adapters - the unit is powered directly from the saw.
There's no adjustment needed - the shadow line is dead on (it can't help but be).
It doesn't matter if I'm using my regular or thin kerf blades; everything in the shadow gets cut. Nothing more, nothing less.

Here are a few other things to note - not bad things, just had to get used to them...
Need to lower the blade to the workpiece to get a decent shadow.
Took a little bit to get used to the lumpy looking shadow line, since each individual carbide tooth casts a shadow.

Here are the low points...
I waited six months before deciding to by this thing - STUPID!
I would buy the LED work light again in a heartbeat!
