Makita HS012GZ01 40V Max XGT Brushless Circular Saw in a Makpac Case (Body Only)
The Makita HS012GZ01 40V Max XGT Brushless Circular Saw in a Makpac Case (Body Only) is a high-performance cordless circular saw designed for fast, accurate cutting in timber and sheet materials on professional job sites. Powered by the 40Vmax XGT Li-ion platform and a brushless motor, it delivers a no load speed of up to 5200 min?¹, combining strong cutting power with an optimised lightweight design. The 165mm blade with 20/30mm bore offers a maximum cutting depth of 57mm at 90° and 41mm at 45°, with a bevel range up to 50° for versatile straight and angled cuts. Twin LED job lights, electric brake, soft start, lock-off and anti-restart functions support precise, controlled operation, while XPT protection and a battery protection circuit help the saw withstand harsh site conditions. AWS compatibility enables wireless connection to suitable dust extractors for improved dust management. Supplied as a body only unit in a Makpac stacking carry case, it integrates easily into existing XGT setups.

| FQQ: | What battery system powers the Makita HS012GZ01 circular saw? |
| FAA: | The Makita HS012GZ01 is powered by the 40V Max XGT lithium-ion battery platform. This system is designed to deliver high output and efficient performance for demanding cutting tasks. |
| FQQ: | Is the Makita HS012GZ01 supplied with a battery and charger? |
| FAA: | This model is a body-only machine and is not supplied with a battery or charger. Batteries and chargers must be purchased separately. |
| FQQ: | What blade size and cutting depth does the Makita HS012GZ01 offer? |
| FAA: | The saw uses a 165mm blade and achieves a maximum cutting depth of up to 57mm at 90 degrees. This makes it suitable for a range of straight cuts in wood and timber. |
| FQQ: | What is the bevel cutting capacity of the Makita HS012GZ01? |
| FAA: | The bevel range adjusts smoothly from 0 to 50 degrees to handle angled cutting tasks. Fixed points at common angles such as 22.5°, 45° and 50° help you set mitre cuts quickly and accurately. |
| FQQ: | Does the Makita HS012GZ01 have LED work lights? |
| FAA: | Yes, it features twin LED work lights with pre-glow and afterglow functions. These lights illuminate the cutting line to improve visibility and accuracy in low-light conditions. |
| FQQ: | What type of motor does the Makita HS012GZ01 use and what are the benefits? |
| FAA: | The saw is fitted with a brushless motor. This provides high output power, longer runtimes and a maintenance-free, long-life design. |
| FQQ: | Does the Makita HS012GZ01 have an electric brake? |
| FAA: | Yes, the tool includes an electric brake that rapidly stops the blade when the trigger is released. This helps protect the workpiece and improves operator safety. |
| FQQ: | Is the Makita HS012GZ01 compatible with dust extractors? |
| FAA: | The saw is AWS-ready and can connect via Bluetooth to compatible dust extractors. With Auto-start Wireless System, the extractor starts automatically when you pull the trigger, helping keep the work area clear of debris. |
| FQQ: | Is the Makita HS012GZ01 suitable for use in harsh jobsite conditions? |
| FAA: | Yes, it features eXtreme Protection Technology (XPT) engineered for improved dust and water resistance. This makes the tool more durable when used outdoors or in demanding environments. |
| FQQ: | Can the Makita HS012GZ01 be used with Makita guide rails? |
| FAA: | The saw fits directly onto Makita guide rails without the need for an additional adaptor. This allows you to achieve perfectly straight, guided cuts with ease. |
| FQQ: | How does the Makita HS012GZ01 maintain cutting performance under load? |
| FAA: | It features constant speed control that automatically maintains blade speed during heavy cutting. This helps ensure smooth, clean cuts even when the saw is working hard. |
