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.

  • Very impressed
Style: Bare Tool
I finally dumped my last Dewalt battery tool and completed my switch to Makita. Really impressed with this saw! Power is way better than the Dewalt (admittedly it was previous gen batteries, so I'm sure DW has improved as well) with literally zero bogging cutting through multiple 2x4's and ripping 1/2" plywood sheets. Power is comparable to my corded saw but, of course, this is so much easier to use. The saw is well-built, adjustments are tight, everything just works and works well. Recommended. ... show more

  • Great saw
Style: Bare Tool
This saw is a very high quality and useful saw for certain applications. I got it on a deal for $80 and it was 100% worth it. That said, I’m a blade left guy for most Everything. This blade right saw doesn’t see a lot of action, except for the Occasional cut that just needs the blade and tilt to be just right. And when I run into that situation, this is a perfect saw for it. As an aside it’s also easy to remove the trigger safety toggle (not that I recommend doing that). Plenty of power, feels very comfortable in the hand, great balance, line of sight is excellent. Love this saw. Great Makita quality and design as usual. ... show more

  • Sweet deal - no brainer
I've been using power hand saws personally and professionally for 50 years, and this is my favorite! No cord hassle is a joy, but I got that with an 18v. under-powered Milwaukee saw in 2002, and was much more pleased with my Makita 18v 6 1-2" saw in 2015. But when this saw came - almost for free - just paid for a dual charger and four(!) 5ahr batteries,,,,, well I didn't have to be too bright to bite! The 7 1/4" 36 v saw is significantly heavier than my 6 1/2" 18v, so I still like the lighter one on a ladder or scaffold or working overhead; it's no strain on arm or wrist. But this new 7 1/4" 36v is no heavier than my old Makita corded saw, which could handle anything all day long. And this 36v seems to have just as much guts, and smooth! I couldn't believe how clean the cut was - in spf or handwood - even plywood! There was no splintering on the top side of 1/4" plywood when cutting cross-grain!! So now my old trusty Makita corded saw will be kept for back-up or for a museum piece for my great grandchildren. I'll be using for light duty my Makita 18v and for everything else this new sweet, smooth Makita 36v. It is not as noisy as a corded saw, and it's definitely noiser than a hot knife cutting through butter, but it's as smooth and clean through wood as that knife through butter. Buy it! ... show more

  • Shipping Materials were Horrible
Style: Bare Tool
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

As a 20+ year carpenter, these tools have came a long way. This thing is a beast. No more cutting cords, which i was famous for.

  • Lighter and faster than my very old plug in model
Style: Bare Tool
I have only had this long enough to do a couple of quick test cuts, but I'm very impressed. My now 30 year old Milwaukee saw with a cord will not longer be used.. This seems to weight about the same as my old one, and that is with batteries.. The speed of the blade getting up to speed, and the cut speed are so much better than anything I've ever used. If it lasts like most of my Makita products, I'll be very happy. ... show more
