Review : Accurate saw with some minor nuisances
I found the Makita LS1221 to be very accurate and powerful. The miter table to the base were near perfect alignment and the fences were very square to the table. The saw is in no way flimsy. Adjusting the bevel and the miter angles are fairly easy. The miter gage is very easy to read. The bevel gage however does not offer enough contrast, especially after the smallest amount of saw dust gathers on it. The lever for locking the bevel gage should be in the front of the saw. The motor makes an annoying sound when it is first started and is positioned directly on the right side of the saw making it difficult to see what you are cutting as the cut proceeds through the wood. Changing the blade is very difficult because there is no way to support the blade fence out of the way to clear the arbor nut.
This however, should not be a problem for anyone who has three hands.
I believe, explains the few grievance respecting Makita LS1221 12-inch Compound Miter saw Kit not fitting or leaking.
Hope this Makita LS1221 12-inch Compound Miter saw Kit comment was helpful!
