Question 1

What is the Makita LS002GZ and what can I do with it?

Accepted Answer

The Makita LS002GZ is a cordless 255mm slide compound miter saw powered by a 40V XGT battery. It’s designed for precise miter, bevel, and cross cuts, with an extended cutting capacity thanks to its large sliding system. It’s well-suited for woodworking tasks like cabinetry, trim work, furniture making, and framing where portable, high-precision cutting is needed.

Question 2

What are the key specifications I should know about the LS002GZ?

Accepted Answer

Core specs include a 255mm blade capacity, 3300 RPM, dual bevel for bevel cuts in both directions, a laser guide for improved accuracy, a large sliding system for wider materials, soft start for smooth power-up, an ergonomic handle for comfort, a dust collection system to keep your workspace cleaner, and quick miter/bevel adjustments for fast setup. It runs on Makita’s 40V XGT platform and requires a compatible battery and charger.

Question 3

Can I bevel cuts in both directions with this saw?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The LS002GZ features dual bevel capability, allowing bevel cuts in both directions without flipping the workpiece, which saves time and improves setup efficiency.

Question 4

What is included with the saw, and what else do I need to use it?

Accepted Answer

The saw body is designed to accept Makita 40V XGT batteries and charger (sold separately). The blade is typically user-replaceable and is not guaranteed to be included with every package, so you’ll want to add a compatible 255mm blade if you don’t already own one. Optional accessories like clamps and dust extraction attachments are available separately on Fepy.

Question 5

How do I adjust the miter and bevel angles on the LS002GZ?

Accepted Answer

To adjust miter angles, release the miter lock, rotate the table to the desired angle using the miter scale, and re-lock. For bevels, unlock the bevel lock, tilt the blade to the desired angle using the bevel scale, and re-lock. The saw is designed for quick, repeatable adjustments with clearly marked detents and scale indicators.

Question 6

What should I know about the laser guide on this saw?

Accepted Answer

The laser guide helps align your cut line with the workpiece. Ensure the battery is fresh, switch on the laser, and align the laser line with your intended cut mark on the material. If the laser appears misaligned, you may need to check alignment or recalibrate according to the user guide.

Question 7

How does the dust collection system perform, and how should I use it?

Accepted Answer

The LS002GZ includes a dust collection system designed to minimize debris in the work area and improve visibility. For best results, connect a compatible dust extractor or vacuum to the saw’s dust port and run with the vacuum on during cutting where possible.

Question 8

What safety considerations should I follow when using this cordless miter saw?

Accepted Answer

Always wear proper PPE (eye and hearing protection, and a dust mask if needed). Keep hands away from the blade, wait for the blade to stop before moving or adjusting the saw, ensure the material is secured, and use the blade guard. Make sure the battery is properly seated and never operate the saw in a wet environment.

Question 9

What are typical use cases for the LS002GZ?

Accepted Answer

It's well-suited for premium woodworking tasks such as cabinet installation, furniture making, trim work, picture frames, and other general carpentry where portability and precision are important. It’s particularly advantageous when you need to cut larger pieces on a jobsite without a power cord.

Question 10

Is the LS002GZ worth the investment compared to similar corded models?

Accepted Answer

If portability and the avoidance of power cords are priorities, the cordless LS002GZ offers the flexibility to work in locations without reliable power access and reduces setup clutter. However, corded models may offer uninterrupted runtime and sometimes slightly higher cutting power for demanding tasks. Consider your typical job sites, required cut types, and whether you already own a 40V XGT battery ecosystem when weighing value.

Question 11

Where can I find comparable cordless miter saws on Fepy and how do they differ?

Accepted Answer

For cordless options from Makita and other brands on Fepy, you can explore similar cordless sliding compound miter saws that use compatible battery platforms. These alternatives may vary in blade size, capacity, bevel range, and dust management. If you’re deciding between models, compare blade capacity, sliding reach, dual bevel capability, laser alignment, weight, and battery runtime to find the best fit for your workflow.
