18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless 6-1/2″ Circular Saw Kit (5.0Ah)

Makita takes the lead in brushless motor innovation, with the 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless 6-1/2” Circular Saw (model XSH03T) offering powerful, cord-free cutting and ripping capabilities. The XSH03T features Automatic Speed Change™ Technology, enabling the device to fine-tune speed and torque for optimal performance during use.

The device’s Makita BL™ Brushless Motor is designed for an extended run time, augmented power and speed, and increased tool longevity. The 18V LXT® 5.0Ah battery provides 65% more run time per charge compared to the 3.0Ah battery (BL1830), and it can be fully charged in a mere 45 minutes. This is the quickest charge time in its class, leading to less downtime and improved productivity. To enhance convenience, the batteries come with a built-in L.E.D. charge level indicator.

Further, the XSH03T incorporates Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™), designed to offer enhanced dust and water resistance, making it suitable for operation in challenging job site environments.

The XSH03T is a part of Makita’s growing 18V Lithium-Ion system, which is the world’s largest cordless tool system powered by 18V Lithium-Ion slide-style batteries. Makita 18V Lithium-Ion batteries hold the record for the quickest charge times in their respective classes, meaning they can be put to work more and spend less time on the charger.

In a bid to enhance tool performance and extend battery life, Makita has introduced Star Protection Computer Controls™. This innovative communication technology enables the Star Protection-equipped tool and battery to exchange data in real time, thus monitoring conditions during use to safeguard against overloading, over-discharging, and overheating. The tool also offers increased versatility as it can be powered by Makita 18V LXT® and Compact Lithium-Ion batteries. The star symbol on the battery denotes the presence of Star Protection inside.
