Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Cons

Makita needs to provide a retrofit kit and a formal letter of apology to everyone that purchased this product on the strength of makita's otherwise admirable reputation. It’s a shame. It costs a load of money that i paid expecting some sort of value.

As soon as you pick the track up it falls off. It’s only held in by friction. It needs to have a track locking system that can be tightened down. There's no postive stop for certain angles, and there's nothing that physically locks into your track.

    I probably wont end up using this very much


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I might use it for angled cuts but those are rare for me


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    On my guide the rail refused to fit in the track at all


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I took the rail off and turned it upside down and now it works much better


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    But then i discovered there are no detents for common angles like 90 45 or 22


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The markings are clear and easy to read but without precise and secure detents they cannot possibly provide great accuracy over the 55 inch length of the track


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    So that means you have to adjust this angle guide for every series of cuts


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Luckily that is not difficult or time consuming
