## Description

Makita, a pioneer in brushless motor technology and battery innovation, has combined both areas of expertise in the 18V X2 LXT (36V) Lithium-Ion Brushless 7-1/2" Compound Miter Saw (tool only). It's powered by two 18V Lithium-Ion batteries for 36V power and performance, but without leaving the 18V LXT platform. In addition, the efficient BL Brushless Motor delivers 5,700 RPM for fast cutting, and the exclusive Automatic Speed Change technology adjusts cutting speed and torque for optimum performance under load.

Review: Mighty Mouse Saw! - I'm a contractor and I use my tools daily in tough environments. I purchased this to replace my smaller (10") plug-in miter saw that gave up the ghost recently. I've gradually been swapping out plug-in tools for cordless because they're so much more versatile on the job. This one is no exception. Although small and light, it cuts through stock without breaking a sweat. It's accurate and smooth. (I saw one review saying the sliders were rough, and I worried about that, but I'm not seeing that in this saw.) I'm really liking how light and portable this tool is. Before, I'd often do without the miter saw just 'cause it was such a pain to lug it up a couple flights of stairs. Not a problem with this saw since it's so light and easy to carry around. Most amazing is it's cut width. My old (heavy, large) corded 10" would barely cross cut a 2"X6" -- this one, despite it's smaller size, will cross cut a 2"X12"!. And I like that it uses the same batteries as the rest of the Makita tools I use daily. Makes it easy to always have a fresh charge standing by. I do wish it was a double-bevel saw (it only bevels to the right 5°, but the saw it replaced didn't bevel to the right at all) but other than that, it's a gem. I've loved every Makita cordless tool I've used, and this one is no exception. Only one small complaint -- the holes in the base for mounting screws are not lined up (the front hole is a bit inboard of the rear hole) that makes it a bit harder to attach it to mounts for my saw stand -- pretty much necessary since the stock supports are too short to be of much use to me.
Review: Powerful and quiet. - So much nicer than my old miter saw. The cut is amazing, see the photo. I’ve not really done much with this tool yet, but I can certainly tell that this saw is not just for recreational users (me). Probably in the professional class. I needed LXT since I don’t have the power in my shop to run corded tools. It’s powerful and quiet. The travel on the blade is great, I can use this almost like a table saw on wider boards.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: can I use 7-1/4 - 5/8 arbor blades?   The 7-1/2 are very limited choices and more expensive.**
A: Yes you can.  Use a 1/4” Masonite or plywood to bump out the fence to take care of the 1/4”.  The smaller blade won’t cut all the way through if you don’t.  Works fine for me.  And yes it’s easier and cheaper to get the standard 7 1/4” blades than the special 7 1/2”s from Makita.

**Q: Is this quieter than a circular saw?  Or will this still jolt my neighbors?**
A: Much quieter. Best saw I have ever owned!

**Q: Anyone know if you can 45* bevel a 2x6 at 90 degrees? Or 0 i guess on the miter saws scale.  Any help is much appreciated**
A: Yes.  You can, the saw will cut alot larger than a 2x6 laying flat.

**Q: What is the distance from front of base to back of saw with saw in the back position.**
A: I can cut a 1x12 board

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent saw
*by R***H on October 26, 2018*

This saw is so good I have to wonder why I ever lugged around 10 and 12 inch heavy saws before. It cuts as smooth as glass. And after you square it up with a machinists square it is dead on square across its widest cutting range. Just a wonderful saw. I have a small basement shop and I also picked up an all beech wood kitchen cart from ikea, mounted this saw onto it and now I can roll it anywhere and it only occupies less than 4 square feet of floor space. The thin kerf puts very little load on the motor. The linear bearings move smooth enough, most importantly they can be squared perfectly. I used the "5 cut" method to get this saw square within 3/1000 of an inch over 28 inches of length. First I clamped a machinists square to the fence barely contacting the blade. Then I moved the fence so the blade remained parallel to the square as it travels the full slide. I then did a "5 cut" test on a piece of 1x8 poplar. After a couple tries I got it down to 3/1000 of an inch square over the 28 inches, (4 cuts around a 1x8), which is insanely square for a miter saw. No co-linear squaring issues with this saw at all if you are patient squaring it up with a real machinist square. The "5 cut" method amplifies any out of square-ness as you rotate the board. To come up only 3/1000 of an inch out on the last cut is ludicrously, insanely, very square. Anyone who says this saw doesn't square up simply doesn't know how to do it.
