Evolution Rage Mitre Saw

[Rampage]

Bought one from Screwfix today, the Evolution Rally.

First thing I cut with it was some 20mm rebar that was lying around. It went through this in two seconds! Immediately after cutting the cut end was stone cold, not even a slightest bit of heat!
Why is this?!

 

[telectrix]

not enough time to build up the heat.

i have one too, excellent for unistrut & trunking - like Tel say's, not enough time for it to heat up. might be a different matter when the blade starts to get worn!

Firstly why would that bother you?

secondly who touches a blade after they cut something?

but to answer you question, the blade is coated so the heat doesnt transfere to the metal as quickly, so once the coating is gone you will be able to burn your fingers as much as you would like.
