Here is how you get it to cut straight. ruclips.net/video/4Ioa24818S4/видео.html
Thanks for the exhaustive review! When are we going to see a Tools&Stuff/Scott Brown collaboration?
I have been waiting for someone to ask that. I'm not sure of the answer though.
I'm a Makita fan and 90% of my tools are Makita. I was so close to purchasing this 36V saw a couple of weeks ago. I drove down to the tool shop to buy one, but came home with a Bosch GCM 12GDL 12inch Glide Saw and a Bosch Folding Gravity Rise Mitre Saw Stand. I read up on the Makita and watched reviews, but I think the issue about the curved cuts really put me off in the end. Perhaps if your video was uploaded before I made the purchase, I might have bought the Makita 36V saw. You are the only one that I have seen, who has come up with a solution to the curved cuts. Well done. Great review. Nice saw.
The Bosch saws are nice... but they ain't cordless. If I was to buy a corded saw I may not have gone with Makita, but because I do a lot of stuff a long way from power, the cordless is a must. And Makita make the best cordless model IMO. But the curved cut and the indent plate are disappointing.
I will do a short vid on how to set up the saw in the future, if I get around to it, so many tools to test and videos to edit...
Yes that's correct. They are not cordless and I thought that must have been important to you. For me, it was not so important with this particular tool as it will only be used at home, but I liked the idea just the same. I would have enjoyed the bonus of an extra battery charger and more batteries that came with the saw, but it was not to be. Looking forward to your upcoming reviews. Have a nice day in beautiful NZ.
It is a beautiful day here. Just been sanding the front of the house and had too come inside cause it's too bloody hot.
The batteries and charger was a big selling point, plus I got $350 off it because I saw it cheaper somewhere else and Bunnings then had to beat that price by 15%. Chi ching.
Got a 9" 36v grinder coming up soon...
How to straighten your cut ruclips.net/video/4Ioa24818S4/видео.html
Thanks for another great video. I agree that after all this time Makita should have sorted out their QC and fixed all the known problems with the corded and cordless model. All the issues are fixable but your shouldn't have to fix those sort of things on a brand new saw. Align blade to the fence, to the table, start cutting wood.
This is a pretty good price for the kit: amzn.to/2NcG6Qr Much cheaper than in NZ.

What are your thoughts after 1 years use ? Thinking of heading into bunnings silverdale too get one
My favourite 36v tool.
I think that aluminium plate that the detents can wear out is only an issue for tradies that use it day in and day out constantly (from my research). You can buy a stainless steel version of that plate online. I'm about to pull the trigger on one of these Makita 36v compound saws, would love to know which ones are still made in Japan, i think the 12" version still is.
Brilliant in-depth review! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Cheers Alan!
Hi, bought same saw without laser, was wondering if you can fit laser off that saw ?thanks
Australia has the hardest woods you can find :) need a strong blade, buloke and iron bark
Just bought the LS1019L and have the same curve problem. After 6 attempts following your instructions, the curve is going the right way but only slightly better. Still have a .45mm/.018 in gap in the middle when I put 2 cut boards together. Only loosened the top set screw to make the adjustments and pulling on the wedged board as hard as I can. Going to try loosening only the bottom set screw and will try again. Very frustrating and disappointing that I have to do this. No Makita service center within 100 miles of me
How much of a gap would you consider acceptable?
If it was a site saw being moved around all the time do you think the curve cut problem would resurface
Good review
Cheers.
Great review! I bought this saw last year and checked square but didn't know about the cupping issue. Now i do and I'm heading out to see if mine does it. i hope not, but I'll use an impact drill to undo those screws, not an Alan key. Mine didn't come with the redemption! or the Bluetooth card.
Cheers

Same sale in the states 9 months ago $529..Tweaking info is hard to find.Nice explanation on slide bars.Just bought a used one.My blade favored the right kerf board.Way out of center in all positions?
My bevel lever gets stuck what to do to pull it out please
I have one of these. Amazing saw. The only thing I don't like is that the detent plate is aluminum and the slots get worn quite easily causing slop. Someone needs to make a S/S one!
Someone has designed a Stainless one, I'm not sure if he is selling them yet or not.
In you might want something else stainless is very soft. Softer than aluminum at times

I just opened my new 12" version of this saw. I still have no clue what that little clear plastic triangle and the mini allen wrench are for! I hope I don't have curved cuts. I'll be setting it up and checking everything over the next few days. I'm liking this saw SO much better than the Dewalt I just sold due to the space saving design. Wow, what a difference.
Hi can you show me how to replace the lock lever on this model miter saw. Thank you
Impact Driver with a 5 hex bit on low to medium torque helps with the screws... just be sure you use fair good branded bits to avoid stripping.
Hi Tools & Stuff, are you still using this saw & what are your thoughts now?
Thanks!
I use it every day. Love it.
@@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL Do you still find it accurate? I just purchased one recently.
Today Ive noticed it is out of square. But all mitres need adjustment from time to time. It's a nice saw to use. Much better than Milwaukee's that keep cutting out and needing a rest.
Hi thank you for a great review looking to buy one but a bit concerned about the curve cuts have you contacted makita about that and have they rectified the issue thanks Greg
they do have a 305mm one
Thanks mate
Why does the bevel lever so difficult to pull out
Wow!!! Mine came all packaged up and everything was wrapped in some sort of plastic. You might have purchased a returned item
Im considering this saw or the 12inch version. i like the direct drive motor and im already in the makita line, but im also in the flexvolt line too and i was up for the makita saw, but the rail inaccuracy is worrying me, so im stuck between the flexvolt and the makita.
HOWS THE SAW BEEN FOR THE PAST YEAR, HOW OFTEN DO YOU USE IT, AND /DID YOU HAVE TO FIDDLE WITH THE RAILS AGAIN FOR ACCURACY, ITS REALLY IMPORTANT AS I WANT THIS SAW TO BE ABLE TO CUT DADOES
i USE IT NEARLY EVERY DAY. i LOVE THE SAW NOW AND HAVE NOT HAD TO MAKE FURTHER ADJUSTMENTS YET. I would get the 12 now though because the side extensions are much better than the crap ones on the 10.
Will the 10inch on this makita cut 12 inch width boards ?
Yes
كم سعرو بالدولار How much are they priced in dollars?
Makita quality control goes to bin . You just repair quality of tool for professionals
Surely this would have been better as an XGT tool
Yes it would. But it has been around for a couple of years before xgt was even announced.
HELP!!! would love to know some details about how you straitened some of the issues... just picked mine up today and it is not flat across the fence.... brand new. suggestions? I have not checked the rails yet see if they are arched.... should i even go to that step if i don't even have flat fence? should i just take it back and get another one?
If it is not straight from left to right I would return it.
@@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL it's not..... it's off 1/16' ... that might fly for most things but it will drive me insane. I'm assuming you can't adjust that because of the 1/2 circle, one piece design.... bottom line: it dips in the middle to a slightly under 180 degrees.
@@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL ok, one last update.... so i found a solution (with some gentle nudging) to fix problem 1. moved on to the arc in the rails. cutting a 45 across a true 1X6, i have just under 1/32 dip in the middle of the cut. light "JUST BARELY" visible through it. i know i will want to fix it, but that seems like "not that much to fix" opinion? and if so, how did you fix yours?
Also, can confirm we definitely don't get the BT chip in the US - Bummer. However, i understand you're not that thrilled with it anyway.
من الممكن أن ترسل لى الدسك المكيته التى استغنيت عنه It is possible that you could send me the discarded Makkina
How about accuracy ?
Once you have dialed it in it is a very good saw and as accurate as you can hope from a timber mitre saw.
Makita: buy more of our stuff
Me: I could use a cordless belt sander
Makita: NO
And a framing nailer.
I want to open a makita store they have poor representation in my part of the united states...they sell a few things at home depot....but its not a helpful place to buy tools
I hear your toilet water spins the opposite direction and apparently the same forces cause you to say "4x2' instead of "2x4".
I've owned this saw for 2+ years. I don't recommend. It certainly has the power and some OK features but the known detent plate issue sucks. The base gets really hard to spin when it clogs up with sawdust - wd40 helps but not a great solution to a problem that shouldn't exist. Laser impossible to adjust properly - shadow line would be much better. Pretty heavy too. I'm not anti makita, all my tools are makita
I haven;t had any probs with the base clogging and the laser is a huge improvement on earlier models and piss easy to adjust I found. But I agree the detent plate is a major flaw.
What was the part number that come's with the batteries and charger, as all of the one's I've found online have batteries as an extra
Handy gadget!
And that packing is why I wont spend 1k on this. Many videos of people getting broken saw. How lazy can Makita be. Quality assurance no longer exists for them.
