Description

Makita, a pioneer in Brushless motor technology and battery innovation, combines both in the 18V X2 LXT (36V) Lithium-Ion Brushless 7-1/4” Circular saw (XSH06Z, tool only, batteries and charger sold separately). it's powered by two 18V LXT Lithium-Ion batteries for maximum performance, and has an electronically-controlled BL Brushless motor that matches torque and RPM to the application. Makita 18V X2 means freedom from the cord, even for demanding applications like cutting sheet and dimensional lumber that traditionally called for a corded saw. Best of all, users can remain in one battery platform, using the same fast-charging 18V batteries with the XSH06Z as they use across the expansive Makita 18V LXT cordless tool system. The XSH06Z has a long list of features for efficient cutting without the cord. The electronically-controlled Brushless motor delivers a full 6, 000 RPM for efficient cutting, with automatic speed Change technology to adjust the cutting speed and torque under load for optimum performance. In internal testing, the XSH06Z made up to 600 cross-cuts per charge in 2x4 SPF lumber using two fully-charged 5.0Ah batteries. Added features include a large 2-11/16” cutting capacity at 90 degrees, and an Electric brake for maximum productivity. The saw has a die-cast magnesium base and blade guard with die- cast aluminum blade cover and motor housing, which combines durability with less weight (only 10.4 lbs. With batteries, sold separately). added features include a built-in dust blower to clean the line-of-cut, and a built-in tether notch (tether sold separately). it’s part of Makita’s expanding 18V Lithium- Ion system, the world’s largest cordless tool system powered by 18V Lithium- Ion slide-style batteries. Makita 18V Lithium-Ion batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger. For improved tool performance and extended battery life, Makita created Star protection Computer controls. Star protection is communication technology that allows the Star Protection- equipped tool and battery to exchange data in real time and monitor conditions during use to protect against overloading, over-discharging and overheating. For increased versatility, the tool can also be powered by Makita 18V LXT and compact Lithium-Ion batteries with the Star symbol on the battery indicating Star protection inside.

    • Really great saw to replace my Makita XSS02Z
Style: Circ Saw Kit
The 6.5" BRUSHED Makita XSS02Z was my first tool as a homeowner ~11 years ago. It served me well for light duty, but as the years went on and my DIY projects increased in scope, the little old saw just couldn't keep up. It would chug, over heat, burn your hands even. Enter XSH06Z (via the XSH06PT kit I ordered here) - this thing is a BEAST. Heavier by a noticeable amount, yes. But it cuts through boards like they are nothing. The blade sits on the right side compared to my old Makita which was on the left. Not sure I care too much, just have to get used to it. The marks and guides make so much more sense on this one. The blade stop and blade retention screw are intuitive. It's significantly quieter and has that brushless ramp up/down. A small complaints though: The batteries arrived completely dead, zero juice, which isn't good for most batteries. The blade depth markings are a little hard to read in an awkward gap between the handle and guard. The safety switch is a small button and less of a lever that I liked on the smaller model. Other than that, these dual battery chargers are great. My last one started dying after ~5 years so it was perfect to pick up this dual kit. The OEM Makita batteries are also hard to find a good deal on, but in a kit these 5 amp are a pretty good deal. The tote bag as always is kind of useless. ... show more

Very Powerful and very easy to adjust to what ever type of cut you need. The 2 5AH batteries run quite a long time. I also love the Dual charger that came with it.

    • Shipping Materials were Horrible
Style: Circ Saw Only
Review Image by Emily Emily
The circular saw arrived in a plain cardboard box that was in another larger cardboard box. The inner cardboard box was not a typical Makita labeled box. Just plain cardboard like it was bulk packaging. The only indication it was meant to be in this box is a flimsy cardboard support with a cutout for the saw guard which immediately collapsed once this boxed was shipped, I'm sure. This left the tool to roll around feely inside the box all the way to my house. At one point, the tool poked a hole through the inner box, which is most likely the reason Amazon put it in a bigger box, since typically they ship in the manufacturers packaging alone. There was also no paperwork in the box. No typical quick start or safety guide, which is strange to me. The tool passed the shipping test. It works perfectly and I can't see anything bent. This goes to show the quality and durability of Makita, but I would much rather see the tool arrive properly supported in the box. Better yet, in a manufacturer's labeled box. Otherwise, I would've given it 5 stars overall. Hopefully it will perform a long time like the rest of my Makita tools. ... show more

    • Excellent cordless saw
Style: Circ Saw Kit
This is a great cordless option for the job site. I have worked in construction for about 30 years. This saw is strong enough to crosscut and plunge cut pressure treated lumber no problem. The saw comes with a framing blade that has a very thin kerf. The battery life is very good. I use the Makita 18v LXT line so I always have plenty of batteries anyway, but four 5ah batteries and a charger will last all day. The saw is probably a little on the heavy side for some, but if you are use to construction work then you won’t have any issue with the weight. To me it weighs about the same as a circular saw with a cord. Not having to deal with the cord all day is worth the weight. I had concerns before buying the saw because of a video review on you tube. In the video it shows a problem with the blade guard hanging up. I didn’t have a problem with this issue. The guard pushes back smooth when making cuts. The one in the review more than likely was a defect. I have over a dozen Makita 18v LXT tools. Two of them are over 10 years old. I only had a problem with a defective tool once. Good news is Makita has a great warranty. ... show more
