The Makita SP6000J plunge saw is a powerful and precise tool designed for a wide range of applications in timber construction and furniture making. With a power input of 1300 watts and a maximum no-load speed of 6400 rpm, this saw offers the power and flexibility needed to tackle even demanding cuts with ease.

The brushless motor offers greater endurance, a longer lifespan, and a more compact design. The cutting point remains exactly in the same place at all angle settings. The angle adjustment ranges from -1° to +48° (for bevel cuts), and there is a quick angle setting for -1° and 22.5°, as well as a quick pre-selection of 45° or 48° as the maximum tilt angle. It features a scoring mode for tear-free cuts. The saw does not tilt off the guide rail even at the maximum tilt angle. It has electronically adjustable speed, constant electronics, soft start, and overload protection. Battery and charger not included.
