- Does it come with batteries and a charger?
- It is sold as a bare tool in most configurations, so batteries and a charger are usually bought separately. Check the kit contents before buying if you are not already on the LXT platform.
- What size stock can it crosscut?
- The sliding rails let it crosscut wider boards than a non-sliding 10-inch saw, and the 10-inch blade suits common trim and framing dimensions. Capacity drops as you bevel.
- How long does it run on a charge?
- Runtime depends on the two 18V LXT packs you use. Larger capacity packs give noticeably longer runs; small packs suit short trim jobs only.
- Is it a replacement for a corded miter saw?
- For trim, decking and jobsite work it is, and it saves running cords. For heavy, continuous cutting in a shop, a corded saw holds power better.
- Can it make compound cuts?
- Yes. It miters and bevels left and right, so you can set both angles at once for compound cuts on crown and trim.
- Where is the Makita LXT Dual-Bevel Sliding Compound Miter Saw 10" 18 V X2 cheapest?
- At The Home Depot, for $959.00, as of our latest check.
