Product Details
Makita, a pioneer in brushless motor technology and battery innovation, combines both in the 18V X2 (36V) LXT® lithium-ion brushless 7-1/4" circular saw kit (XSH06Z). Powered by two 18V LXT® lithium-ion batteries (sold separately), it features an electronically-controlled BL™ brushless motor that optimizes torque and RPM for the application, allowing freedom from cords even for demanding tasks such as cutting sheet and dimensional lumber. The XSH06Z delivers 6,000 RPM and incorporates Automatic Speed Change™ technology to adjust cutting speed and torque under load for optimal performance. It boasts a large 2-5/8" cutting capacity at 90 degrees, electric brake for increased productivity, and is constructed with a die-cast magnesium base and blade guard, weighing only 10.5 lbs. with batteries. Additional features include a built-in dust blower to clear the line-of-cut, and a built-in tether notch (tether sold separately). This model is part of Makita's expanding 18V lithium-ion system, which is the world's largest cordless tool system powered by 18V lithium-ion slide-style batteries, known for their fast charge times.
