About This Product

The Makita 12 Dual-Bevel Sliding Compound Miter Saw with Laser (model LS1219L) combines capacity, accuracy and efficient dust extraction in a more compact size, with a unique 2-Steel Rail Sliding System that offers a reduced footprint for operation flush against a wall. The innovative direct-drive gearbox and guard system is engineered for increased vertical cutting capacity of baseboard (6-3/4 in.) and crown molding (8 nested). It will also make 15 crosscuts at 90°. The saw 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). The saw is powered by a 15 Amp direct drive motor with soft start, a key point of difference. Direct drive enables smoother start-ups and consistent, constant power with no belts to slip or replace. The electric brake provides added convenience. In addition, the electronic speed control maintains constant speed under load for smoother, higher-quality cutting. Additional features include a high-quality 60T carbide-tipped blade, and a see-through blade guard system for greater visibility of the blade and line-of-cut. The built-in laser indicates the line-of-cut whether the blade is turning or not, and offers micro-adjustments for precise left-of-blade or right-of-blade cutting.

Questions & Answers

              What is the part number for the previously used aluminum (not rod) extensions? Please don't state "These were always used". A simple google/YouTube search proves otherwise.

              Answer This Question

              Thank you for your question on the LS1219L Duel-Bevel Sliding Compound Miter Saw with Laser. The aluminum extensions wings only are available in separate pieces. The Sub-Base part number is 319815-7. The Rod's part number is 327315-3 and you need two of them. The small Sub Fence for the top of the Sub-Base is 347509-4 and the screws to hold the Sub-Base to the wing is 92443-5 and you need two.

                  Nice saw so far. You can tell it’s a quality piece of equipment. I prefer a shadow line over the laser. The laser is a bit off.

                  The Makita LS1219L is a very high quality, accurate sliding compound miter saw. Twenty years ago I purchased the 10” version and paired it with a Ridgid mobile saw stand (miter saw in rear of one of the pics). That saw is still very accurate and works great. I have some large crown to install and wanted a 12” saw to cut the crown in the nested position, so I bought the LS1219L and paired it with the updated Ridgid Mobile saw stand. This has worked great. The 12” saw has been updated with increased miter/bevel capabilities and much improved dust collection. The saw has nice extension wings and a clamp you can mount to either side of the saw. There are two dust boots, one that is just below the saw blade that moves as the sliding mechanism moves and a very large stationary dust boot. They do a very good job of collecting the vast majority of the dust (you will always have some dust). I like that the bevel adjustment has been moved and you can adjust the bevel much more easily. The soft start on the motor is awesome and allows the saw to start up without jolting your hand holding the trigger. I have found over the years with my older saw that it is best to use the Makita saw blades. The Makita saw blades give a great silky smooth cut on plywoods, hardwoods etc without any chips or tear out. I tried other blades from other high quality brands, but they don’t give as good a cut or last as long as the Makita blades.

                  Built like a tank
                  Just got this saw after having used the 12" sliding Ryobi and the difference is night and day. The dust collection is fantastic and the blade cuts smooth as butter. The soft start and relatively quiet motor make it a pleasure to use. ALSO, please note that this model does not come with those dinky metal bar outfeed supports, it comes with REALLY NICE cast aluminum ones (see photo) that are flat and square, a massive difference from what is shown in these photos. This sucker has been going on sale down to 499 quite often lately so just be patient, it's a killer deal at that price.

                    The laser is extremely accurate. Good range of travel for the saw blade. 12” blade accommodates large pieces of wood. Good two-shute vacuum system. Yep.

                    Very happy with the saw. Be careful though, mine required calibration before use, so the first couple of cuts were not square. Home delivery experience was pretty bad. Had to reorder because the first delivery had torn box and missing parts. The second was just an open box, but nothing was missing.
