The Makita GSH01M1 is a 40V max XGT brushless 7-1/4 in. circular saw kit built for framing and heavy cutting. It runs at 6,000 RPM and cuts up to 2-5/8 in. deep at 90 degrees, so it handles 3x lumber in a single pass. The bevel range runs 0 to 56 degrees with positive stops at 22.5, 45 and 56 degrees. It suits framers, remodelers and anyone already on Makita's XGT battery platform; against 18V-class saws it trades extra weight and a larger battery for more power and depth of cut, and it is AWS-capable for wireless dust extraction and remote start with compatible Makita equipment.

Owners of Makita's XGT circular saws generally rate the power and cut depth highly, calling the saw smooth and capable of cutting 3x in one pass. Complaints center on weight and on the cost of committing to the 40V XGT battery platform.
The Makita GSH01M1 is a 40V max XGT brushless cordless 7-1/4-inch circular saw kit. It is a rear-handle saw for framing, roof work, forming and general jobsite cutting. The brushless motor runs at 6,000 RPM, and the saw cuts 3x material in a single pass.
Cut capacity is 2-5/8 inches at 90 degrees, 1-13/16 inches at 45 degrees and 1-5/16 inches at 56 degrees. The bevel range is 0 to 56 degrees, with positive stops at 22.5, 45 and 56 degrees. An electric brake stops the blade faster between cuts. Automatic Torque Drive Technology adjusts speed under load.
The base, blade guard and blade cover are die-cast magnesium. Extreme Protection Technology improves resistance to dust and water, and dual LED lights light the cut line. The saw is AWS capable: with the optional Auto-Start Wireless Transmitter, it uses Bluetooth to turn a compatible dust extractor on and off automatically. XGT tools and batteries use digital communication that monitors load, overheating and over-discharge.
