Questions and answers
- Is the GSL02M1 worth it over a corded miter saw?
- It makes sense if you work away from outlets or move the saw often. A corded 10 in. or 12 in. saw costs less and cuts deeper, but you trade away portability.
- How does it compare with Makita's 18V LXT miter saws?
- The 40V XGT platform delivers more power for a saw this size and uses its own batteries. If you already own LXT batteries, they won't fit this tool.
- What can it cut at 45 degrees?
- Maximum depth at 45 degrees is 2-3/4 in., and the dual bevel lets you tilt the head left or right. That covers most baseboard, casing and crown work.
- What's in the box?
- The kit includes the saw, an 8-1/2 in. blade, one 40V max XGT battery and a charger. An onboard hex wrench is stored on the saw for blade changes.
- Does it collect dust?
- It has a dust collection port and bag. Hooking it to a shop vac gives noticeably better pickup than the bag alone.
- When is it cheapest?
- Cordless tool kits usually dip during holiday sales and when Makita runs promotions. The best new price seen was $1,019 at Cowls Building Supply as of November 4, 2026.
- Where is the Makita GSL02M1 40V max XGT Brushless Cordless 8-1/2 in. Dual-Bevel Sliding Compound Miter Saw Kit cheapest?
