It’s part of Makita’s expanding 18-Volt Lithium-Ion system, powered by 18-Volt Lithium-Ion slide-style batteries. Makita 18-Volt Lithium-Ion batteries have fast charge times, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger. For improved tool performance and extended battery life, Makita created Star Protection Computer Controls. Star Protection is communication technology that allows the Star Protection-equipped tool and battery to exchange data in real time and monitor conditions during use to protect against overloading, over-discharging and overheating. For increased versatility, the tool can also be powered by Makita 18-Volt LXT and Compact Lithium-Ion batteries with the Star Symbol on the battery indicating Star Protection inside. This bundle also comes with 194368-5 55 in. Guide Rail and 194385-5 Guide Rail Clamp, 2-pack.

using the track saw has revolutionized my woodworking
Carmel Deckow (verified owner) –
So far has worked just fine. Came in heavy packaging so it was not bent many have complained about. Also, you must do a trial run with it before cutting to trim the rubber anti-wood splitting guard alongside the rail.

Great track. It’s the same as the Festool tracks but cheaper

This saw has lots of power and a speed dial. Most track saw require purchase of the track, but Mikita came with the track and has an 8 footer available. After a dozen sheets of 9/16th siding it is still on the initial charge. The charger does a fast charge on the batteries. Great saw, great buy!
