The sub-compact recipro saw has a compact and ergonomic design at only 12-1/2 in and 5.7 lb (with 18 V LXT® compact 2 Ah battery, battery and charger sold separately).

Convenience features include tool-less blade change, a reinforced fixed shoe for added durability, electric brake and a built-in LED light for improved visibility. It's equipped with Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™), which is engineered for improved dust and water resistance for operation in harsh conditions. It's part of Makita's expanding 18 V LXT® system, the world's largest cordless tool system powered by 18 V lithium-ion batteries. Makita 18 V LXT® 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, Makita 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 Makita 18 V LXT® and compact lithium-ion batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating Star Protection inside.
