The Makita 18V X2 (36V) LXTBrushless 6-1/2” Plunge Circular Saw Kit (XPS01Z, tool only, batteries andcharger sold separately) delivers precise and more accurate cutting whencombined with an optional guide rail system (sold separately). The saw and railsystem work together to produce accurate cuts with minimal tear-out. The sawcombines a powerful Makita-built brushless motor powered by two 18V LXT®batteries with Automatic Speed Change™ Technology, which adjusts cutting speedand torque during the cut for optimum performance.

The Saw has a variable speedcontrol dial (2,500 – 6,300 RPM), with soft start and an electric brake foradded convenience. It has a large 2-3/16” cutting capacity at 90 degrees, witha bevel capability of -1° to 48° and positive stops at 22.5° and 45°. When usedwith a rail system (sold separately) the Plunge Circular Saw is a more portableoption to a table saw for select applications, and is ideal for use on the jobsite or in a workshop.

It’s part of Makita’s expanding18V Lithium-Ion system, the world’s largest cordless tool system powered by 18VLithium-Ion slide-style batteries. Makita 18V Lithium-Ion batteries have thefastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working andless time sitting on the charger.

For improved tool performance andextended battery life, Makita created Star Protection Computer Controls™. StarProtection is communication technology that allows the Star Protection-equippedtool and battery to exchange data in real time and monitor conditions duringuse to protect against overloading, over-discharging and overheating. Forincreased versatility, the tool can also be powered by Makita 18V LXT® andCompact Lithium-Ion batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicatingStar Protection inside.
