Difference between EB KGS301 and KGS331 SCMS ?

[John McM]

I've seen a good deal on the EB/Metabo KGS301 mitre saw but a little bell is tinkling in the back of my mind asking wasn't it the KGS331 you should get. I can't remember what the difference is. Anybody help ?
Thanks
John

The KGS 331 comes with a dust extraction kit (0910003496) and is equipped with a carbide sawblade (60 teeth) while the KGS 301's standard carbide sawblade has only 24 teeth.
In other words, you can turn a KGS 301 into a KGS 331 if you additionally purchase the dust extraction kit and the blade with 60 teeth.

Hope this helps,

Christian
