Makita, a pioneer in brushless motor technology and battery innovation, combines both in the 18-Volt X2 LXT (36-Volt) Lithium-Ion Brushless Rear Handle 7-1/4 in. Circular Saw (XSR01PT). It’s powered by two 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion batteries for maximum performance and has an electronically controlled BL Brushless motor that matches torque and RPM to the application. Makita 18-Volt 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 18-Volt batteries with the XSR01PT as they use across the expansive Makita 18-Volt LXT cordless tool series. The XSR01PT has a long list of features for efficient cutting without the cord. Users of leading corded saws will appreciate the blade-left rear-handle design. The electronically controlled brushless motor delivers a full 5,100 RPM for efficient cutting. In internal testing, the XSR01PT made up to 558 crosscuts per charge in 2×4 SPF lumber using 2 fully-charged 5.0Ah batteries. Added features include a large 2-9/16 in. cutting capacity at 90° that will cut 3X lumber in a single pass and an electric brake for maximum productivity. The saw has a die-cast magnesium base and blade guard with die-cast aluminum blade cover and motor housing, which combines durability with less weight (only 12.4 lbs. with batteries).

I bought this just a few days ago. I like how it feels ego wise and it is easy to site down the cut line. It has a lot of power, while feeling smooth without any vibration. However, the indexing on this tool is horrible! The miter marks are not very good. You basically have 22 1/2 45 and 50…What about 18 1/2 and other’s ? On several other brands, they are fully indexed. It seems like a no brainer on a saw such as it is to go cheap on an important piece of this tool to leave out something like this…I really have a hard time with this tool since everything else is really good. I may return this for one with better indexing on for angle cuts…Not everyone cuts at only those 3 angles Makita…

What a beast! This saw is amazingly well constructed and the Kit is an amazing value! Makita quality has always been a ‘cut’ above, but this Kit make that quality affordable.
