The 1650 Watt motor makes 4800 rotations per minute. It is powerful enough to increase the speed of the machine. That is why it makes you complete a task in a short period. Pinion fence rails Safety comes in the form of an electric brake. The guard is removable without using a tool. The table saw comes with a soft start and dust collection feature. The cost is not ideal for users running under a tight budget. Pros Taking the saw out of its box, with the exception of some fine-tuning to the blades set point, the only assembly required before the saw can be used is fitting the riving knife and clipping the blade guard into place.

Amp motor Beyond the Makita decals, you will also notice the type of well-built machine that consumers have come to expect from the brand despite the fact that the saw was developed as a cost-effective alternative to the Makita 2704.Notwithstanding quite a few shortcomings I’m quite happy with mine. I’ve had it for 15 months and it hasn’t missed a beat. The maximum cutting depth of the Makita mlt100 at 45 degrees is 64mm, and at 90 degrees, it is 93mm. When at 45 degrees, it runs up to 64mm.

For woodworking hobbyist and DIY junkies, benchtop table saws are often the most logical option for their affordability and space-saving qualities. On tool storage holds commonly used accessories including: TCT saw blade, Rip fence, Miter gauge etc One such saw is the Makita MLT 100. A saw that I have been using for over a year now and today I will write my detailed and honest review of this Makita product. First glance – Why I bought it

Considering the cost-effective component of this saw’s development it’s no surprise that it is not without its flaws and while cutting is when you will notice most of them. The blade has a 40 tooth Tungsten carbide-tipped blade. The blade diameter is 260mm. It has a decent size that makes it powerful enough to cut through large piles. Max cutting depth Two pole slide system for raising and lowering blade for the most efficient and smoothest adjustment of the blade depth Makita is known for making quality, professional grade, power tools but unfortunately for the likes of hobbyists, these come with a professional grade price tag. A price tag that is often not justifiable for the type of person that’s in the woodworking game for the love of it. Maby that’s why Makita decided to throw guys like us a bone by scaling down their design and building a saw that falls in our price range. The height adjustment action is of the smoothest and most effortless that I’ve experienced on a saw in the MLT 100‘s price range.Makita MLT100NX 240v 260mm Table Saw and Stand The MLT100X 240v 260mm Makita Bench Saw and Stand is designed as more affordable table saw than the model 2704 and features an electric brake and double insulation. There is almost no vibration on the blade and the measurements printed on the saw are close to spot on. But I agree about the fences, they need modification and that bloody throat plate was the first thing to go. For many professional woodworkers, their table saws form the cornerstones of their woodworking operations. Sadly, I have no solution to the throat plate dilemma. I have considered making a replacement but there is a small strip underneath the insert which would require any replacement to be really thin in that area. I have seen people make replacement plates but I wouldn’t be able to say how safe and effective they are.
