36V LXT Brushless 9-1/4" Circular Saw Tool Only with Guide Rail Compatible Base/AWS Capable

A pioneer in brushless motor technology and battery innovation, combines both in the 36V (18V X2) LXT Brushless 9-1/4 Circular Saw Kit (XSH010Z). It′s 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.

The XSH10Z is compatible with Guide Rails (sold separately) for accurate ripping. With a large cutting capacity of 3-3/8 at 90◦, the XSH10Z can conquer demanding applications such as ripping and cross cutting larger beams, boards and forms.

Get efficient cutting without the cord with the XSH10Z. It makes up to 110 cross cuts in 3x12 oak board using two fully-charged 5.0Ah batteries. The electronically-controlled brushless motor delivers a full 4,500 RPM for efficient cutting, with Automatic Speed Change technology to adjust the cutting speed and torque under load for optimum performance.

Added features include an electric brake for maximum productivity and a soft start for smooth start-ups. The cordless circular saw has a die-cast magnesium base, blade guard, and blade cover for a durable design with less weight (only 13.2 lbs. with batteries, sold separately).

The XSH10Z 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 provides an efficient dust management solution, that eliminates cords and reduces noise.

It′s part of expanding 18V LXT System, the world′s largest cordless tool system powered by 18V lithium-ion slide-style batteries. 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger.

For improved tool performance and extended battery life, 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 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating Star Protection inside.

Makita takes another step toward a truly cordless job site with Auto-Start Wireless System. AWS uses Bluetooth technology for wireless power-on and power-off communication between the equipped tool and dust extractor. AWS is intelligent communication that eliminates cords and excessive noise since the dust extractor runs only when trigger-activated by an AWS tool. When the trigger is released, the dust extractor powers-down. The Makita AWS dust extractor (XCV08Z) is powered by two 18V LXT batteries for maximum performance, and users benefit with an expanding AWS system that includes cordless tools for concrete, metal and woodworking.

Tool users who unplug the cord with Makita 18V LXT experience new levels of convenience, efficiency and productivity. Makita created the 18V lithium-ion cordless tool category in 2005, and today it is the world′s largest 18V cordless tool line-up. Makita′s leading technology gives tool users unmatched performance and breadth of line, with innovation in motor and battery technology that is obliterating industry standards - and leaving old thinking behind. With high amp-hour batteries, efficient brushed and brushless motors, and 36V (18V X2) LXT technology, Makita 18V LXT tools not only meet corded demands, they can exceed the performance of corded, all while remaining in a single cordless platform powered by the industry′s fastest-charging 18V lithium-ion batteries.
