someone should teach this fella in the video how to cut wood…what a poor video. your cutting approx. 7.5″ why push through it let the blade cut the wood. I realize the newer saw has more RPM but the old saw will still cut especially with someone that knows how to use a circular saw
Sounds like a dulled blade in the old saw too

I have the older model and it has plenty of torque but the blade speed is too slow at I think 2700. If pushed too fast you can get it to stall pretty easily. The newer model should be much better and I like the built in dust tube.
