I bought a saw for dissolving boards 150 * 50mm, the saw saws very easily, like a knife butter, did not cut the steps and are happy in the bowstring, made a ladder in the country, painted the OSB boards on the floor, there are no questions from the word at all to the saw. the wire is soft, very soft, I have Hilti, and so the wire is harder, it’s unbelievable but true!))) But Hilti has it 2 times longer, Makita also has no height adjustment, which is not critical from the word at all, anyway I expose on the ruler, and if necessary, you can calibrate, there is an opportunity for this. I am satisfied with the very soft operation of the engine, there is enough power for a 50mm board with a margin, I recommend it for purchase! In work, it seemed to me easier than Hilti, but Hilti has a better dust extraction, Makita's pipe is screwed onto the screws and looks very flimsy, the native hose from Karcher went into the dust pipe without nozzles, it's very pleasing!))
