Makita SP6000J1 6-1/2" Track Saw Kit with Tool Case and 55" Guide Rail

The Makita 6-1/2” Plunge Cut Circular Saw and 55” Guide Rail (model SP6000J1) work together to produce accurate cuts with minimal tear-out. The saw combines a powerful 12 AMP motor and a large cutting capacity with magnesium components for less weight, and electronic speed control to maintain constant speed under load for smooth cutting and a splinter-free mirror finish. The SP6000J1 is a more portable option to a table saw for select applications, and it is ideal for use on the jobsite or in a workshop.

The SP6000J1 saw has a bevel capability of -1° to 48° with positive stops at 22.5° and 45°. It delivers precise cutting, as the position of the blade enters the material on the same cutting line whether cutting straight or bevel. In addition, the saw has close-to-wall cutting (11/16") for expanded cutting applications. The built-in depth stop allows a preliminary cut of 1/16" to be performed before the entire material is cut through for clean and splinter-free cutting.

The SP6000J1 has a powerful 12 AMP motor with soft start for smooth start-ups, and Electronic Speed Control to maintain a constant speed under load for smooth cutting. The variable speed dial control (2,000 – 5,200 RPM) allows the user to set the speed for optimum performance in a variety of materials. The built-in torque limiter helps prevent motor burnout.

Convenient features include a large top handle, an electric brake, and a lock-lever that attaches the saw to the rail system so that the saw stays on the aluminum rail when positioned for a bevel cut. The smooth and convenient plunge release lever is designed for operator comfort, and the depth adjustment features a large scale that is easy to set.

Use the SP6000J1 to cut sheet material, finish and trim work, and remodeling projects. It is ideal for a broad range of trades, including cabinet installers, cabinet manufacturers, finish carpenters, stair and flooring installers, woodworkers, and general contractors.
