Makita LS1219L 12 Dual-Bevel Miter Saw with Laser for Professionals

The Makita LS1219L is a 12-inch dual-bevel sliding compound miter saw with a laser. It combines capacity, accuracy, and efficient dust extraction in a more compact size. What sets it apart is its unique 2-steel rail sliding system, which allows for a reduced footprint and the ability to operate flush against a wall.

Thanks to its innovative direct-drive gearbox and guard system, this saw offers increased vertical cutting capacity for baseboard (up to 6-3/4 inches) and crown molding (up to 8 inches nested). At 90 degrees, it can make 15-inch crosscuts. It also has a miter range of 0° to 60° left and right, with positive stops at common angles.

The bevel lock is conveniently located in the front of the saw for easy access and quick adjustments from 0° to 48° left and right. Powered by a 15 amp direct drive motor, this saw provides smoother start-ups and consistent power without the need for belts. It also features an electric brake for added convenience and electronic speed control to maintain constant speed under load.

Other notable features of the LS1219L include a high-quality 60T carbide-tipped blade, a see-through blade guard system for better visibility, and a built-in laser that indicates the line of cut. The laser can be precisely adjusted for "left-of-blade" or "right-of-blade" cutting.

To enhance dust collection, this saw has dual dust collection ports that can be used with a bag (included) or a vacuum (sold separately). Additionally, its large-sized aluminum base improves cutting stock stability for more efficient cuts.

Overall, the Makita LS1219L is a powerful and versatile miter saw that delivers on capacity, accuracy, and dust extraction. Its compact size, innovative features, and reliable performance make it a top choice for professionals and DIY enthusiasts alike.
