DEWALT LAUNCHES NEW TOOLS
By Adnews Staff
U.S.-based DeWalt Industrial Tool Co. recently announced four new products to introduce to the North American market. The new tools are the DW788 Variable Speed Scroll Saw, the DW733 12 1/2-inch Heavy Duty Portable Thickness Planer, the DW708 12-inch double bevel sliding compound mitre saw and the DW744 10-inch Heavy Duty Table Saw. The scroll saw features a double parallel link arm to reduce vibration and provide greater accuracy. The planer reduces the amount of wood normally scrapped on each board and the head-lock system prevents shifting as you are cutting. The mitre saw bevels both left and right and allows users to cut in either direction by flipping the saw instead of the material. The table saw features a telescoping rack and pinion fence to provide better accuracy. It will be available in September. The other products are already available. In Canada, print advertising to the trade and consumers supports the launch of the products. It was created by McCann Erickson Worldwide of New York. Initiative Media of Toronto adapted the ads for Canada and did the media buy.
