About This Product

The 40V max XGT Brushless 6-1/2 in. Circular Saw (GSH05) provides cordless convenience while taking on high-demand applications. The Makita-built brushless motor delivers up to 5,200 RPM for high-speed cutting performance. The 6-1/2 in. Circular Saw can deliver up to 290 cuts per charge in 2x10 SPF lumber on a fully charged 40V max XGT 4.0Ah battery (sold separately)The GSH05 features a 2-1/4 in. cutting capacity at 90° and 1-5/8 in. at 45°, with a 0-50° bevel capacity with positive stops at 22.5°, 45°, and 50°. The saw features electric brake for maximum productivity. It features a die-cast magnesium base, blade guard, and blade cover provide a lightweight design, weighs only 7.9 lbs. with 4.0Ah batteryConvenience features include a L.E.D. light with preglow and afterglow illuminates the work area, and a retractable extra wide tool hook that secures the tool when not in use. The GSH05 features a compact and ergonomic design at only 11-3/4 in. long without battery (sold separately).The saw is also equipped with Makita's Extreme Protection Technology (XPT), which is a series of integrated seals designed to improve a tool's operation in harsh conditions by channeling water and dust from key internal components.The GSH05 features the Auto-Start Wireless System (AWS), which uses Bluetooth technology for wireless power-on and power-off communication between the equipped tool and dust extractor.
