Makita LS1018LN/2 240V 260mm Slide Compound Mitre Saw

Product Information

To ensure the utmost accuracy, Makita have fitted the LS1018LN with a laser guide rail and offer a max bevel range of 45 - 45 º to really get into those intricate cuts. Safety hasn't been neglected as Makita have equipped this saw with an electric brake and a soft start function to minimise the chance of the blade causing injury. Weighing in at 20.6kg this product is surprisingly lightweight and is sold as a single unit. Miters 0° - 47° left and 0° - 60° right, with positive stops at 0°, 15°, 22.5°, 31.6°, 45° (left and right) It also can handle a 45° miter cut thru an 8-1/2″ board. So again, really good capacities on the crosscut. This particular saw can cut a 12″ wide board at 90°– so it’s great for shelving, wide dimensional lumber, plywood (see photo above), etc. This is one of the lightest 10″ sliding compound miter saws. It’s got enough features that there are lighter saws out there, but they still did really good with weight management on thismodel.

It does have a bigger footprint due to the standard slide rails than it’s cousin, the Makita LS1019L, but that saw’s features come with a higher price tag (and total weight).But for the money, it’s a great saw thatmany people use regularly and highly recommend. I too would recommend this saw if the price is in your range. Today I’ll be writing the Makita LS1018 review – This is a high quality, highly rated sliding compound miter, built with the professional user in mind. The DIYer can get a lot out of this saw as it would handle about any home-improvement job you could throw at it. Basically, the same benefits as applied to a contractor, only you may not put as many hours on it.

The Makita LS1018LN/1 110V 260mm Slide Compound Mitre Saw Laser will prove valuable to professionals such as carpenters and kitchen fitters. The powerful 110V motor has an input wattage of 1430W and a no load speed of 4300rpm to make short work of crosscuts and mitre cuts. This saw excels at cutting through wider materials and structures, such as boards and frames, thanks to its 260mm blade with a 30mm bore diameter. This saw offers a lot of features for a lot of people. However, the manufacturer had professionals in mind when they designed it. You can adjust this saw’s miter angle up to 47° left, and 60° right. These are good ranges and should allow you to achieve just about any kind of miter you would need. The Motor Even still it doesn’t perform as good as say the Bosch CM10GD, but it does well enough. Just keep your expectations low and you won’t be disappointed! (seriously though, most miter saws dust collection is a joke) Versatility – this saw handles most jobs – but not all bohužel všechny stupnice a štítky jsou lepeny. Mnoho štítků již po vybalení jsou odchlípnuté, protože se číňan neobtěžoval podklad odmastit. Odchlípnuté (papírové) štítky již nejdou zpět přilepit, poněvadž jsou již prosáknuté olejem. Nevím, jak to budu řešit, pokud se odlepí stupnice ...But at the decent price and low weight, the do-it-yourselfers can still reap great benefit without spending an arm and a leg.

stavěcí šrouby úpinky jsou sice zašroubovány v hliníkovém dílu, ale po jeho obrobení, číňan nevyfoukal špony, šrouby namazal a namontoval. Vše drhnulo, musel jsem závitové spojení rozebrat, odmastit, vyčistit a opět namazat a složit Příjemně mne překvapilo kolik pilin skončí v pytlíku, přesto i při použití vysavače jich skončí hodně okolo, ale to je u většiny těchto pil. The Makita LS1018LN 240V 260mm Slide Compound Mitre Saw Laser will prove valuable to professionals such as carpenters and kitchen fitters. The powerful 240V motor has an input wattage of 1430W and a no load speed of 4300rpm to make short work of crosscuts and mitre cuts. This saw excels at cutting through wider materials and structures, such as boards and frames, thanks to its 260mm blade with a 30mm bore diameter. As you can see, it’s a dual bevel saw. You can bevel left and right, both to 45°. While I would prefer a slightly extended bevel range, say to 47°, the 45° is industry standard and this will take care of 95% of most peoples beveling needs. Celkově si myslím, že tato pila není sice z nejlevnějších, ale v poměru cena/výkon a hlavně přesnost dává smysl.

It goes beyond standard on its miter capabilities, plus it’s a dual bevel, meaning you can change the angle of the blade instead of flipping the workpiece over. Contractors tend to love this feature. It’s built to last and has a decent warranty for the price tag. I would say for non-professionals, this tool will probably last a really long time.
