About This Product
The 40V max XGT Brushless 10" Dual-Bevel Sliding Compound Miter Saw (GSL03Z, tool only) delivers faster and smoother cutting. The rail-forward design maximizes workspace when the miter saw is positioned flush against a wall. The miter saw has a large 2-13/16" x 12" cutting capacity at 90-degrees. The saw miters 0° to 60° left and right and bevels from 0° to 48° (left and right). The efficient brushless motor runs cooler and more efficiently for longer tool life. Extension wings all for cutting longer materials and retract for easier storage. An electric brake provides maximum productivity. For improved efficiency, it is equipped with Auto-start Wireless System technology. AWS utilizes Bluetooth technology for wireless communication between the tool and dust extractor (sold separately). When the trigger of the AWS-equipped GSL03Z is engaged, the AWS-equipped dust extractor powers-up. When the trigger is released, the dust extractor powers-down. AWS is intelligent communication that eliminates cords and excessive noise since the dust extractor runs only when the tool is running.

Questions & Answers
will it cut a 4x4 in one cut?
Thank you for your question about our GSL03M140V max XGT® Brushless Cordless 10" Dual‑Bevel Sliding Compound Miter Saw Kit, AWS® Capable (4.0Ah). This tool has a Max. Cutting Capacity (miter 90°) : 2-13/16" x 12" and a Max. Cutting Capacity (miter 45°, L/R) : 2-13/16" x 8-1/2".
Is this cord compatible as well?
Thank you for your question about the 40V max XGT Brushless Cordless 12 in. Dual-Bevel Sliding Compound Miter Saw Kit, AWS Capable (4.0Ah). No, this tool does not have corded compatibility. See our corded options using this link: https://www.makitatools.com/products/tools/corded/saws/miter-saws
Can you use a 8 1/4" saw blade with this saw? There are very few specialty 8 1/2" blades available.
Huh? NO this is a 12" saw so an 8 1/2" blade can not be used.
Thank you for your question on the 40V Max XGT Brushless Cordless 8-1/2 in. Dual Bevel Sliding Compound Miter Saw. This saw should only be used with the recommended blade size of 8 1/2".
Does the Bluetooth vacuum feature on this saw communicate with other brands of Bluetooth dust extractors?
Thank you for your question on the GSL03M1 40V max XGT Brushless Cordless 10" Dual‑Bevel Sliding Compound Miter Saw Kit, AWS® Capable (4.0Ah). No, the GSL03 is only compatible with Makita's AWS chip and receiver.
Can I use this with a regular 7 1/4 blade?
"Thank you for your question on the GSL02Z 8-1/2"" Dual-Bevel Sliding Miter Saw. Only use the saw blade with the diameter that is marked on the tool or specified in the manual. Use of an incorrectly sized blade may affect the proper guarding of the blade or guard operation which could result in serious personal injury"
What are the dimensions of the saw when folded for storage?
Thank you for your question on the GSL02Z 40V 8 1/2" Dual bevel Sliding Compound Miter Saw. The miter saw dimensions in the closed position are 16" height x 22 3/4" width, and 28" long.
Does this saw Come with the AWS Chip?
"Thank you for your question about the GSL02Z miter saw. No, the saw does not include the AWS transmitter. The saw does include the following: (1) Triangular Rule (762001-3) (1) Hex Wrench (783022-2) (1) 8-1/2"" 45T Carbide-Tipped Max Efficiency Miter Saw Blade (E-06965) (1) Dust Bag"
There seem to be so many Makita mitre models and I can’t tell what the differences are. There’s XGT DXT and I think another. And ones 850 and the other 1500? Basically just want a 12inch, shadow line would be great and either 40v or corded.
Thank you for your question. The GSL04 XGT 40v AWS miter saw is a shadow line 12" dual-bevel miter saw that runs on our XGT 40 volt battery system. It is the only 12" miter saw in the XGT line.
