Makita LXT XSL07PT Miter Saw with Laser Kit, Battery, 12 in Dia Blade, 4400 rpm Speed, 0 to 60 deg Max Miter Angle

Description

Makita is a pioneer in brushless motor engineering, battery technology, and miter saw innovation. This combined expertise resulted in the 36 V (18 V X2) LXT? Brushless 12 in Dual Bevel Sliding Compound Miter Saw Kit with Laser (XSL07PT). It's powered by two 18 V Lithium-Ion batteries for 36 V power and performance, but without leaving the 18 V LXT? platform. X2 LXT technology delivers increased power, speed and run time, without the hassles of a cord. Get up to 175 cuts per charge in 2x12 SPF lumber with two 5 Ah batteries. The efficient BL? Brushless Motor runs cooler and more efficiently for longer tool life and delivers up to 4,400 rpm for fast and smoother cutting. The XSL07PT also features Automatic Speed Change? technology to adjust cutting speed and torque under load for optimum performance. The XSL07PT has a unique 2-steel rail sliding system design that offers single slide glide operation for smooth and dead on accurate cutting right out of the box, as well as a reduced overall footprint that allows the saw to be positioned flush against a wall. The innovative direct drive gearbox and guard system is engineered for increased vertical cutting capacity (6-3/4 in), crown molding cutting capacity (8 in nested) and 15 in crosscuts at 90 deg. The saw miters 0 to 60 deg left and right, with positive stops at 0, 15, 22.5, 31.6, 45 and 60 deg (left or right). The direct drive gearbox with soft start is a key point of difference. Direct drive enables smoother start ups and consistent, constant power with no belts to slip or replace. Additional features include a built-in laser that indicates the line of cut, dual dust collection ports for excellent dust extraction performance and an electric brake provides added convenience. It also has a large sized aluminum base that improves the stability of cutting stock for more efficient cutting. The XSL07PT includes a 12 in 60T carbide tipped max efficiency miter saw blade. The thin kerf design provides smoother cuts with less drag on the motor and minimal material loss. Compared to standard blades the max efficiency miter saw blade delivers up to 100% faster cutting. It's part of Makita's expanding 18 V lithium-ion system, the world's largest cordless tool system powered by 18 V lithium-ion slide style batteries. Makita 18 V lithium-ion batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger.
