- Do I need two batteries to run it?
- Yes. It runs on two 18V LXT batteries together as a 36V system. It is tool only, so batteries and a charger are sold separately.
- How thick can it cut?
- It cuts 2-3/16 inches deep at 90 degrees and 1-9/16 inches at 45 degrees, enough for 1-3/4-inch doors and most sheet goods.
- Will the 39-inch rail cut a full sheet?
- Not in one pass along 8 feet. The rail suits crosscuts and shorter rips; for full sheets you need a longer rail or rail joiners.
- Can it cut melamine without chipping?
- Yes, if you use the scoring depth stop to take a shallow 5/64 to 7/64-inch pass before the full cut.
- What comes in the box?
- The XPS01Z plunge saw, one 6-1/2-inch 55-tooth carbide blade, a hex wrench and the 39-inch guide rail. No batteries or charger.
- Does it work with other Makita rails?
- It uses Makita's guide rail system, so it works with Makita rails and rail joiners; it is not designed for other brands' rails.
