The Makita XSL06Z is a 10-inch dual-bevel sliding compound miter saw that runs on two 18V LXT batteries for 36V power, with no cord to manage. It cuts 3-5/8 inches deep at 0 degrees bevel and miters 0-60 degrees both left and right, and the brushless motor, soft start and electric brake make it smoother and safer than older brushed cordless saws. The 4-3/4-inch tall fence and laser guide help with tall trim and accurate alignment. It suits trim carpenters, remodelers and deck builders who work where outlets are scarce; against corded 10-inch sliders it trades raw power for portability, and it is heavy at around 71 pounds as shipped.
