Two things about the wormdrive saws since they came to market- • Brand new, you should run it for 20 minutes, and then change the oil. The gears are new…and haven’t been run much. They leave shavings in the oil which should be discarded for fresh oil to remove those shavings. • Per the manual, the original and Mag 77 need to be warmed up prior to daily job site duty. This is especially important in cold weather. When I say warmed up, I mean running the saw for ten minutes. It may not seem like much, but these two things along with regular maintenance, will keep these saws running for decades.

11 lbs? Might explain why framers have big biceps. I have the worm drive table saw, but haven't bothered to get a WD circular saw.

Exactly, 11.5 pounds and its considered the lightest WD circular saw. The aluminum 77 model weighs in at 14.5 pounds! Dayum! Thanks for watching Chris!

Skil oil is about US$6 for an 8 fl. oz. tube. (240 mL.) That is a little more than enough for the new saws.
