The DCCS674X2 is DEWALT's 60V MAX FLEXVOLT 14-in. brushless cordless top handle chainsaw sold as a kit with two DCB609 9.0 Ah batteries, a DCB1106 charger, and a kit bag. The top handle design is engineered for arborists working in trees, offering superior maneuverability in tight canopy environments. Capable of cutting through an 11-in. log up to 35% faster than a 35cc gas chainsaw, it delivers up to 2.4 HP and a 23 m/s (75.5 ft/s) chain speed. Features include an adjustable oiler, D-ring harness attachment point, tooled tensioning, inertia chain brake, metal bucking spikes, and an LED dashboard. Backed by a 3-year limited tool warranty.
What is a top handle chainsaw and why does it matter for arborists?
A top handle chainsaw has its primary handle on top of the body (above the bar), allowing the operator to hold the saw with one hand while gripping a branch with the other. This is essential for arborist work in trees where both hands cannot always be on the saw. The DCCS674X2 is specifically designed for this arborist application, meeting the ANSI A300 standard for top handle use.
How fast does the DCCS674X2 cut compared to a gas chainsaw?
DEWALT claims the DCCS674X2 cuts through an 11-in. log up to 35% faster than a 35cc gas top handle chainsaw. This is driven by the 23 m/s chain speed (75.5 ft/s) and 2.4 HP peak output from the FLEXVOLT drivetrain. In practical terms, arborists report the saw keeps pace with gas models through a full day of pruning and limbing.
What is included in the DCCS674X2 kit?
The DCCS674X2 X2 kit includes two DCB609 9.0 Ah FLEXVOLT batteries, a DCB1106 charger, a 14-in. bar, 14-in. chain, scrench, scabbard for bar protection, a 5/32-in. sharpening file, and a kit bag. Two batteries provide extended runtime for full-day professional use with one battery on the saw and one charging.
Does the DCCS674X2 have an automatic chain oiler?
Yes. The DCCS674X2 features an adjustable oiler that continuously lubricates the bar and chain during operation. The oiler flow rate is adjustable to match different cutting conditions — heavier cutting typically requires more oil flow to prevent bar wear and heat build-up.
What is the LED dashboard on the DCCS674X2?
The LED dashboard on the DCCS674X2 provides at-a-glance battery state-of-charge and operational status. This allows arborists to monitor charge level while aloft without having to stop work and remove the battery to check its indicator.
Can the DCCS674X2 be used with the FLEXVOLT 15 Ah battery for more runtime?
Yes. The DCCS674X2 accepts any DEWALT FLEXVOLT battery including the DCB615 15 Ah battery for maximum runtime. Heavier batteries will add weight to the tool, which can be a consideration for extended overhead use. The two included DCB609 9.0 Ah batteries provide a good balance of runtime and weight for professional arborist work.
