18V X2 LXT Lithium-Ion (36V) Cordless 7-1/4 In. Circular Saw Kit (5.0Ah)

The 18V X2 LXT Lithium-Ion (36 V) cordless 7-1/4 In. circular saw (model XSH01PT) is the world’s first cordless 7-1/4 In. circular saw powered by two 18V batteries. The XSH01PT provides the performance of a corded saw without leaving the strongly-preferred 18V platform. The Makita-built motor delivers 4,800 RPM for fast cutting and ripping. In performance testing the XSH01PT/Z made 250 cuts in 2 x 4 lumber per charge**, which is up to 2.5 times more cuts per charge than the Makita 18V Cordless 6-1/2 in. Circular Saw, model BSS611Z. With a 7-1/4 In. blade the XSH01PT/Z has a cutting capacity of 2-5/8 In. at 90 degrees. In side-by-side testing the XSH01PT/Z exhibited corded power and speed, cross-cutting a 2 x 10 In. only 1.5 seconds and matching the cutting time of the Makita 5007F corded circular saw. Model XSH01PT/Z has a reinforced magnesium base for added durability and weighs only 10.1 lbs. (with batteries). The saw includes two L.E.D. indicators that monitor battery charge status and temperature. Additional features include an electric brake for maximum productivity, rubberized soft grip handles for increased comfort, and a built-in dust blower engineered to clear the line-of-cut for improved visibility.
