This powerful tool features a brushless DC motor, offering an excellent power-to-weight ratio and reduced heat buildup for demanding tasks. Active Feedback sensing Technology (AFT) enhances safety by automatically shutting down the tool during kickback. Automatic Torque Drive Technology (ADT) optimizes motor speed and torque for maximum efficiency. The saw includes a soft start feature for smooth acceleration, an electronic current limiter to prevent motor burnout, and an electric brake for operator safety. eXtreme Protection Technology (XPT) provides robust protection against dust, debris, and liquids, ensuring optimal performance in harsh environments. A battery cover protects batteries during wet cutting. The lock-off button prevents accidental startup, and a water supply kit (sold separately) can be attached for dust suppression during wet cutting. The ergonomic soft rubber grip ensures comfortable operation and vibration absorption. Powered by two 18V LXT Li-Ion batteries in series. Includes 2 x BL1850 18v 5.0Ah Batteries and 1 x 18v Dual Charger. Maximum cutting capacity is 88mm with a 22.23mm bore diameter and a maximum wheel thickness of 3.0mm. Not compatible with G-Series batteries.
This guide is for users of the Makita Disc Cutter Saw, offering a powerful and efficient cutting solution. The saw's brushless motor, combined with Active Feedback sensing Technology (AFT) and Automatic Torque Drive Technology (ADT), provides superior performance and safety. Note that the saw is powered by two 18V LXT batteries and is not compatible with G-Series batteries.

Troubleshooting
The saw does not start.
Check that both batteries are fully charged and properly inserted. Ensure the lock-off button is disengaged.
The saw is not cutting efficiently.
Check the blade for sharpness and ensure it is the correct type for the material. Check for any obstructions.
The saw shuts off during use.
The AFT system may have been triggered. Reduce the cutting pressure and ensure the blade is not binding. The electronic current limiter may also be activated if the saw is overloaded. Reduce the load or allow the motor to cool.
