From the Manufacturer

The Makita DPC7311 14" power cutter offers a fresh new design that enhances performance and provides greater operator comfort. This 73cc power pack is loaded with new technological innovations such as the micro-chip controlled carburetor that compensates engine timing to work load. The new and improved 5-stage air filtration system has been enlarged by 80% to ensure cleaner air for better performance, even in the dustiest conditions. Better filtration means less down time for maintenance and more production time. Makita also beefed up the aluminum blade guard with pressure plates for reduced vibration and wear. The DPC7311 is equipped with a spring tensioned belt adjustment w/gauge to always ensure proper belt tensioning. Compression release, single knob access to primary air filter and spark plug and a 2-mass dampening system for reduced vibrations makes this the industry leader when it comes to Power Cut saws. You expect the best from Makita - and you get it.

 Just one issue December 1, 2007

Amazon Verified Purchase

I like this tool. It came with an abrasive blade, so plan to buy a diamond blade. The only design flaw is that the kill switch is located close to the handle. With gloves on I keep grabbing it and accidentally turning it off.

 No Ignition spark June 17, 2008

By Glenn

Purchased in late December 2007. Worked perfect until it now has no
spark (June 17, 2008) to the spark plug. Probably the on off switch is faulty. Can't find any blogs about the problem. Buy a Stihl instead.
