The Makita XSH06PT is a cordless 7-1/4 inch rear-handle circular saw for cutting framing lumber, sheet goods and general jobsite wood stock. It runs on two 18V LXT batteries together (18V X2) for 36V class performance. The electronically controlled brushless motor turns at 6,000 RPM. Automatic Speed Change technology adjusts speed and torque under load.
The saw cuts 2-5/8 inches deep 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. The base, blade guard and blade cover are die-cast magnesium to reduce weight. The saw is 13-1/2 inches long and weighs 10.5 lbs. with batteries.
An electric brake stops the blade quickly between cuts. Dual LED lights illuminate the cut line, and a built-in dust blower clears it. A dust nozzle allows vacuum connection, and the saw has a tether notch. Extreme Protection Technology provides improved dust and water resistance. Star Protection Computer Controls help protect against overload, over-discharge and overheating.
