A 260 mm stationary saw with its stand, from a brand with a real service network — and one of the thinnest published specifications we have come across.
The bottom line Hard to recommend on the published evidence, and hard to dismiss given the network behind it. Verify the specification with a dealer before ordering.
Hands-on testing pending. Nothing below is presented as our own measurement. Every figure is a manufacturer specification, read off the listing itself, and the judgements are ours — drawn from how the specification behaves in this class of machine and from what long-term owners consistently report. Where a figure is missing, we say so rather than fill it in.
260 mm blade. Supplied with a stand. That is the extent of what is published on this listing — the manufacturer’s description consists of a single line about Makita quality, with no cut height, no motor rating, no fence description and no extraction detail.
Because a gap is information. This machine appears in searches, it is stocked across Europe, and a reader comparing it against the saws above deserves to know that the comparison cannot be made on published figures. We could have inferred the missing numbers from other saws in the range and nobody would have noticed. That is precisely the practice this site exists not to follow.
260 mm is the largest blade on this page, which implies the deepest cut here; implies, because Makita does not state it. The stand is included, which removes a purchase that is otherwise awkward and overpriced. And Makita’s spares and service network in Europe is genuinely one of the reasons to choose the brand for a machine you intend to keep — parts exist, and they exist in ten years.
The same reference, the same EAN, resolved at roughly €890 in Germany and over €1 600 in France on the day we checked. Nothing about the machine differs. On stationary machinery sold partly through third-party sellers, that spread is common, and it is worth several hundred euros to check your own market rather than assume.
Everything a specification sheet would normally answer. If you are considering this saw, ask a Makita dealer for the cut height at 90° and at 45°, and for the fence design, before you order.

Because the listing is. Makita publishes one line of marketing copy and no technical detail on the reference we checked, and this site does not fill in specifications by inference from other models. The gap is the finding, and it is worth knowing before you order.
The same reference showed roughly €890 in Germany and over €1 600 in France when we checked. That spread is normal for stationary machines sold partly through third-party sellers, and it is the strongest argument on this page for checking the price on your own market before committing — which is what the button on this page does.
