Makita sp6000k Plunge Saw

September 2, 2011 by Mo Leave a Comment

I have been looking at various different solutions that would provide me with a better solution to rip my big plywood peaces that I have to rip. I know Festool is most probably the first thing that come to people mind, but for me it so costly and personally I think Festool is good but Makita sp6000k Plunge Saw equally as good I think. But that is just my personal opinion. I Have decided on a saw and I think it will deliver the same precision and accuracy than the Festool.

  • Powerful 12.0 AMP motor for optimum performance in a wide variety of materials
  • Precision accurate cutting delivers a splinter-free mirror finish
  • Electronic speed control maintains constant speed under load for smooth cutting
  • Variable speed control dial (2,000-5,200 RPM) enables user to match the speed to the application
  • Built-in current limiter helps prevent motor burnout
  • Soft start feature for smooth start-ups
  • Large cutting capacity (2-3/16″ at 90° and 1-9/16″ at 45°)
  • Easy-to-set depth adjustment with large scale
  • Smooth and convenient plunge release lever for operator comfort
  • Bevel capability (-1 to 48°) with positive stops at 22.5° and 45°
  • Magnesium components deliver a well balanced and lightweight saw at only 9.7 lbs.
  • Dual front and rear bevel supports provide additional rigidity for precise and accurate bevel cuts
  • Precise bevel cutting as the position of the blade enters the material on the same cutting line whether cutting straight or bevel
  • Close to the wall cutting (11/16″) for expanded cutting applications
  • Locking lever holds the blade in position so that the wrench can be inserted through the hole in the blade case for easier blade installation
  • Blade wrench attaches to the saw for fast and convenient blade changes
  • Electric brake for maximum productivity
  • Built-in depth stop allows a preliminary cut of 1/16″ to be performed before the entire material is cut through for clean and splinter-free cutting
  • Rubberized handles for added comfort
  • Large 1-7/16″ rear dust port directs material away from the operator and easily connects to a vacuum system
  • Includes a premium 48 tooth carbide tipped blade
