The Makita LS1219L is a heavy-duty 12” miter saw built for serious woodworkers and contractors. This dual-bevel sliding compound miter saw combines capacity, accuracy, and efficient dust extraction with a unique 2-steel rail sliding system that offers a reduced footprint for operation flush against a wall. With an impressive 15" crosscut capacity, the LS1219L will handle any decking, flooring, or furniture project with ease.

The LS1219L has a vertical cutting capacity for baseboards as thick as 6-3/4” and crown molding as thick as 8" in the nested position. It miters 0° to 60° left and right, with positive stops at 0°, 15°, 22.5°, 31.6°, 45° and 60° (left or right). The bevel lock is located in the front of the saw for easy access and quick adjustments from 0° to 48° (left and right).

Deep and Exact Cutting Technology (DXT) is a series of features that give Makita Miter Saws more cutting capacity and out-of-the-box accuracy for superior cutting performance. The gearbox and guard system utilizes a portion of the back of the blade for significantly more vertical cutting capacity when cutting baseboard and nested crown molding. In addition, the direct drive gearbox has no belts to slip or replace, so power is transferred more efficiently from the motor to the blade.

Additional features include a see-through blade guard system for greater visibility of the blade, and a built-in laser that indicates the line-of-cut whether the blade is turning or not. This offers micro-adjustments for precise “left-of-blade” or “right-of-blade” cutting. A 12" x 60T micro-polished miter saw blade is included.

It has dual dust collection ports for improved dust collection capability for use with a bag (included) or vacuum, like the VC4210. It also has a large-sized aluminum base that improves the stability of cutting stock for more efficient cutting.

Every Makita product carries a 1-year warranty unless otherwise stated. (Some products have a longer warranty, i.e. Lithium-Ion Tools, Batteries & Chargers include a 3-year warranty, etc.)
