Slide Compound Mitre Saw. Motor head slides on fixed pipes without extending to the rear of the machine, allowing the machine to be placed close to the wall. Making miter cuts is a breeze and I love the front adjustable bevel. Makita LS1019L Miter Saw Review – Value If you aren’t going to be working with wood that will require the support of the fence for bevel cuts, this is a great saw to own. Makita designed a quality and high performance saw that is extremely smooth and powerful. Indeed, it has the power to handle all the cutting jobs that a 12-inch miter saw can do. This is the reason that Makita LS1019L is the perfect equipment to be bought for all your wood cutting needs. Another good thing about this miter saw is that it comes with a direct drive motor having a soft start. It is unlike others that come with a belt drive.

Our saw was dead on accurate right out of the box which was a nice breath of fresh air. No fumbling around with lining things up. We just had to install the blade and we were set to cut. I also love this saw for woodworkers just because it’s got a fantastic dust collection system, and the small footprint is great for small woodshops, while still providing a large cutting capacity for wide boards. High power provides efficient cutting in wood and aluminum extrusion (aluminum blade and cutting lubricant sold separately) Motor head slides on fixed pipes without extending machine at rear end, so the machine can be placed close to wallIncreased capacity for up to 6-5/8" crown molding (vertically nested), 5-1/4" baseboard (vertical), and 12" crosscuts at 90° As known, Makita Company is known to manufacture high-quality miter saws that have a reputation in the market. Taking the goodwill to the next level, LS1019L comes with excellent features that make it possible to get the wood cutting tasks. It has been smartly engineered to provide high-end accuracy and simple to execute. A couple users indicated that the rails are slightly off square, meaning the blade drags just a bit on long sliding cuts

Unique 2-Steel Rail Sliding System design offers single slide-glide operation; reducing saw's footprint and allowing operation flush against a wall For the average woodworker, I think this is a good choice, primarily for the dust collection. Woodworker shops need good dust extraction systems since they are typically in enclosed, and somewhat small areas. Makita LS1019L is a wonderful product in terms of usage as its transparent blade has been good enough to give you clean cuts. Also, it comes with a built-in laser that provides a high level of accuracy. When it comes to the matter of usage, it is a versatile miter saw that works wonders for the carpenters. The product has been manufactured to give a clean-cut and has been easy to use. Moreover, it is quite easy to clean as well, which makes it simpler to manage. Dust Collection: I know some larger wood shops may not have this issue, but either way, dust collection is still important. And unless you’re willing to build a dust collection box around your miter saw, the dust system built-in to the Makita LS1019L is one of the best you can get. The Makita LS1019L 240V 260mm Slide Compound Mitre Saw Laser is a fantastic tool for professional carpenters, joiners and kitchen fitters. This corded tool delivers a no-load speed of 3200rpm and has an input wattage of 1510W to make cuts fast and effective. With a maximum mitre range of 60-60° and a maximum mitre cut at 90° of 68x310mm this saw is extremely versatile. Adjusting the bevel is simple and the in-built laser guide will ensure you get the most accurate cuts possible.

DXT (deep and exact cutting technology) มาในรูปแบบกระทัดรัด และช่องระบายฝุ่น ที่เอื้อและเป็นมิตรกับเครื่องดูด If you do any large base and crown molding, this miter saw is perfect for you. It’s got a tall fence system and an impressive cutting depth capacity. To achieve this increased cutting capacity, Makita designed the overall system of components they call the DXT(TM) – Deep and Exact Cutting Technology. No matter what you are cutting, this saw is like driving a new Cadillac where everything is running smooth and everything seems well engineered. The slide-out rails are a bit different than most manufacturers (but similar to Ryobi’s). The Makita rails are heavy gauge, single steel rods bent into a supportive structural shape, as you can see here. They work great for support longer boards when cutting dimensional lumber. So in comes the Makita LS1019L sliding miter saw. The first thing you notice is the 2 rails lined up on the side of the blade. It’s different, a little strange looking, but also a really cool and practical design.

It also sports a unique rail system for the sliding action, which allows for a smaller footprint, comparable to the ‘Gliding’ technology in the Bosch 10″ sliding compound miter (see link below). Besides this, it comes with a new compact rail system with 20 percent larger rails providing higher precision at the time of bevel cutting. What makes it a favorable choice is its working capacity and accuracy that has managed to gain attention for better performance. Unique 2-Steel Rail Sliding System design offers single slide-glide operation; reduced saw footprint allows operation flush against a wall Makita LS1019L is an excellent product for contractors because of its great power, remarkable cutting abilities, and small footprint because of the exclusive rail system Makita Company utilizes.

The dust collection is one of the best we have seen along with it being one of the smoothest saw to operate. The rail system is located on the side is a genius way to make this the perfect saw even for tight spaces. I don’t work with crown molding so I think I found my new favorite sliding miter saw. Integrated upper and lower tall fence system offers added rigidity for more precise mitre and bevel cuts This saw can support a nested crown molding cut up to 6-5/8″ wide. This means you can rest the molding against the fence at an angle and make the perfect cut, even with large crown molding.

When I first saw the Makita LS1019L in Dallas on our Makita trip, I thought it was cool, but it didn’t make me turn my head. Not because of the saw or the technology, but because I am stubborn. At the time I was already sold on the Dewalt DWS780 as being the king of miter saws and for a shop saw, the Bosch CM12SD Glide Saw as it saves room on your work bench. I didn’t need to be sold on a new saw. Innovative direct drive motor and guard system is engineered for increased vertical cutting capacity (5-1/4") The saw is powered by a 15 AMP direct drive motor with soft start, a key point of difference. Direct drive enables smoother start-ups and consistent, constant power with no belts to slip or replace. The electric brake provides added convenience. In addition, the electronic speed control maintains constant speed under load for smoother, higher-quality cutting. Motor head slides on fixed pipes without extending machine at rear end, so the machine can be placed close to wall. Built-in laser clearly indicates line-of-cut whether blade is turning or not; on-off switch and micro-adjustments for precise "left-of-blade" or "right-of-blade" cuttingOverall this is a great saw. My biggest complaint is the fencing system and not being able to slide the fence to support certain types of applications. Though, Makita LS1019L has exclusive features and tends to give a tough competition to miter saws in the 12inch category; but, one thing that its blade drags slightly in the long cutting tasks. Now, this can be a trouble, which requires adjustment again to have longer cuts on the wood. Of course, it may be time-consuming without any doubt. Conclusion: Should You Buy It?
