Makita LS002GZ01 40V Max Li-ion XGT Brushless 216mm Slide Compound Mitre Saw – Batteries and Chargers Not Included

Product Information

XGT® Batteries feature rigid rails with impact-resistant construction to secure the battery to the tool during high-demand applications For improved efficiency, it is equipped with Auto-start Wireless System technology. AWS® utilizes Bluetooth® technology for wireless communication between the tool and dust extractor (sold separately). When the trigger of the AWS-equipped GSL02Z is engaged, the AWS-equipped dust extractor powers-up. When the trigger is released, the dust extractor powers-down. AWS is intelligent communication that eliminates cords and excessive noise since the dust extractor runs only when the tool is running. One of the main goals Makita has with XGT is providing more power, but without users having to buy big, heavy, slow charging batteries for use on a limited amount of tools. With XGT launching alongside 50 products, I’d say they’re off to a solid start. Makita XGT 2.5Ah 40V Max Makita XGT 4Ah 40V Max Makita XGT 5Ah 40V Max Makita 40V XGT is Makita's new range of tools using 40V batteries rather than the 12v CXT or 18v LXT batteries.Makita's new generation of tools, 40V XQT is a high-output battery technology. The upgraded batteries are built to handle the hardest and most demanding jobs namely jobs that you'd usually turn to a corded tool for. In 1958, they introduced their first power tool –a hand-operated electric planer. This proved to be a decisive point in the fortunes of Makita. A few months later, they released a hand-held chaser which began a trend that is still evident today as a specialist manufacturer of power tools.

The 40V max XGT® Brushless 8-1/2” Dual-Bevel Sliding Compound Miter Saw Kit (GSL02M1) provides 4,800 RPM for faster and smoother cutting. The rail-forward design maximizes workspace when the miter saw is positioned flush against a wall. The miter saw has a large 2-3/4” x 12-1/4” cutting capacity at 90-degrees. The saw miters 0° to 60° left and right and bevels from 0° to 48° (left and right). Unique 2-Steel Rail Sliding System design offers single slide-glide operation; reduced saw footprint allows operation flush against a wall The efficient brushless motor runs cooler and more efficiently for longer tool life. The GSL02M1 features Automatic Speed Change™ technology to adjust cutting speed and torque under load for optimum performance and a soft start to suppress start-up reaction for smooth start-ups and longer gear life. Extension wings all for cutting longer materials and retract for easier storage. An electric brake provides maximum productivity. The 40V max XGT® Brushless 8-1/2” Dual-Bevel Sliding Compound Miter Saw (GSL02Z, Tool Only) provides 4,800 RPM for faster and smoother cutting. The rail-forward design maximizes workspace when the miter saw is positioned flush against a wall. The miter saw has a large 2-3/4” x 12-1/4” cutting capacity at 90-degrees. The saw miters 0° to 60° left and right and bevels from 0° to 48° (left and right).

OUTLAST: The digital communication within XGT® actively monitors and protects against overload, over-discharge and overheating

Low vibration mechanism. Equipped with anti-vibration housing with built in spring to absorb the vibration from cutting to integrated front and rear handles Built-in laser clearly indicates line-of-cut whether blade is turning or not; on-off switch and micro-adjustments for precise "left-of-blade" or "right-of-blade" cutting The MakitaCE001GZ is a powerful and efficient 355mm cut off saw powered by two 40V Max XGT Lithium-Ion batteries (supplied separately). The anti-vibration housing with a built in spring helps to absorb vibration while operating the tool, to increase user comfort over long sessions.The saw is powered by a 15 AMP direct drive motor with soft start, a key point of difference. Direct drive enables smoother start-ups and consistent, constant power with no belts to slip or replace. The electric brake provides added convenience. In addition, the electronic speed control maintains constant speed under load for smoother, higher-quality cutting. Innovative direct drive motor and guard system is engineered for increased vertical cutting capacity (6-3/4")

Four drills and hammer drills plus an impact driver mean that Makita XGT technology also doesn’t force you to bring along LXT tools for handling basic tasks. Makita XGT GPH01 hammer drill Makita XGT GDT01 impact driver Integrated upper and lower 5-1/2" tall fence system offers added rigidity for more precise miter and bevel cuts The XGT® Rapid Charger’s built-in chip thoroughly communicates during the charging process to control current, voltage, and temperature for more efficient charging The digital communication within XGT® actively monitors and protects against overload, over-discharge and overheating Makita is one of, if not the largest manufacturer of power tools in the world with factories in Brazil, China, Romania, Dubai, Germany, the US, and the UK. The company was founded on 21st March 1915 as Makita Denski Seisakushoby Mosaburo Makita. The company's early days were selling and repairing light fixtures, motors and transformers. In 1935, they began to specialize in electric motors and even began to export them around the world. By 1938, the company had changed its name to Makita Electric Works.Tool-less" fence adjustment up to 45º for faster and more accurate angle cuts; adjusts to 3 locations for various material sizes The tool and battery have an innovative built-in communication programme which ensures that their motor technology works together for optimum performance Plus a fan, radios, and LED lights… As we said, Makita plans to debut these new tools with 50 products and plans for a whole lot more. 80V Max (40V Max X2) Cordless Technology Increased capacity for up to 8" crown molding (vertically nested), 6-3/4" baseboard (vertical), and 15" crosscuts at 90°

Working for such clients as Universal Pictures, Hollywood Pictures, Paramount Home Entertainment, NASA, Universal Studios, Planet Hollywood, SEGA, NASCAR, and others, Clint DeBoer dealt extensively with client management as well as film & video editing, color correction, and digital video & MPEG compression. He also carries several THX certifications (Technician I and II, THX Video), and is ISF Level II Certified. Makita is serious when it comes to their 40v tools, creating a whole new range can be risky but their XGT batteries are designed to be durable and last for as long as you need. No literally when we went to Makita's training they said an average 40V battery would last as long as you needed it to. This holds true when using the batteries for a day of work, and run times vary per tool, but you should always keep a charger handy.Currently-planned future products will include dust extractors with suction power that goes beyond 75 CFM, a 9-inch power cutter, concrete vibrators, metal-cutting saws, mag drills, shear wrenches, and more. We chatted with Makita, and they seem really excited about the possibilities 40V Max and the X2 80V Max XGT tools platform gives them. XGT 40V Max Batteries and Charging Times There are currently 100+ 40V MAX tools, and Makita plans to release many more. So you’ll still be able to cover all of your needs exclusively with XGT.
