Makita XSH07ZU 18V X2 LXT Circular Saw Top Handle, Tool Only

Makita XSH07ZU Description

Makita, a pioneer in Brushless Motor technology and battery innovation, combines both in the 18V X2 LXT® (36V) Lithium-Ion Brushless 7-1/4 In. circular saw (XSH07ZU tool only). The circular saw is powered by two 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion batteries for maximum performance, and has an electronically-controlled BL™ Brushless Motor that matches torque and RPM to the application. Makita 18V X2 means freedom from the cord, even for demanding applications like cutting sheet and dimensional lumber that traditionally called for a corded saw. Best of all, users can remain in one battery platform, using the same fast-charging 18V batteries with the XSH07ZU as they use across the expansive Makita 18V LXT® cordless tool system. The XSH07ZU has a long list of features for efficient cutting without the cord. The electronically-controlled Brushless Motor delivers a full 6,000 RPM for efficient cutting, with Automatic Speed Change™ technology to adjust the cutting speed and torque under load for optimum performance. The tool can make up to 610 cross-cuts per charge in 2 x 4 SPF lumber and up to 320 crosscuts per charge in 2 x 10 SPF lumber using two fully-charged 5.0 Ah batteries. Added features include a large 2-5/8 In. cutting capacity at 90 degrees, and an electric brake for maximum productivity. The saw has a die-cast magnesium base and blade guard with die-cast magnesium base, blade guard and blade cover, which combines durability with less weight (only 10.5 lbs. with batteries, sold separately). Added features include a built-in dust blower to clean the line-of-cut, and a built-in tether notch (tether sold separately). The XSH07ZU is AWS™ capable when equipped with the auto-start wireless transmitter (part no. 198901-5, sold separately). AWS™ (Auto-start wireless system) uses Bluetooth™ technology for wireless power-on/off communication with the AWS-equipped dust extractor (sold separately). AWS™ is intelligent communication that eliminates cords and reduces noise.
