Hilti Debuts Hand-Held Gas Saws DSH 700-X and DSH 900-X

It’s full speed ahead when cutting through concrete slabs, asphalt, sewage pipes and more with the Hilti Hand-held gas saws DSH 700-X and DSH 900-X. These next generation saws incorporate an innovative technology called Easy Start that automatically sets the proper amount of choke for more first-pull starts. With Easy Start, there’s no need to worry about adjusting the choke—simply flip the switch “on” and pull the starter rope. 

Hilti’s Cyclone Air Filtration System removes most of the dust and debris from the engine air intake flow using centrifugal force. This process is perfected by suctioning the cleanest air from the center of the cyclone which is then sent to the filter.  This dramatically increases the filter’s lifetime and performance, meaning less downtime for rental owners.

The DSH 700-X is a 70cc saw available in a 14-inch model, while the DSH 900-X is a 90cc saw in 14- and 16-inch models.  Maintenance is made simple, thanks to an easy-to-access and change starter rope, air filter housing and a reinforced blade guard.  Common maintenance parts such as air filters, starter ropes, spark plug, and fuel filter are included to deliver unparalleled productivity, ease of use and reliability.  

When used with the new portfolio of diamond cutting discs in three new performance levels—Equidist SPX, SP and P, the DSH 700-X and DSH 900-X excel in cutting a variety of base materials including all types of concrete, masonry (hollow-brick, limestone, etc.), and asphalt.   Each blade operates with its own unique capacity to increase productivity, versatility and speed even in the most demanding applications.
