Looked through my book and couldn't find the info you wanted. I can say this , it has worked perfectly for me the motor is a soft start which is nice, I have a 8 inch router that is no problem for the saw. It also has a very well designed safety system. I know some would discard this first thing. The one thing to remember is this is a light weight contractor saw.

I also looked in my book and couldn't find the info either. I didn't see the information on the saw either. This is a light weight saw. I have used mine quite a bit over the years I've had it. I works great. I did find a phone number you might want to try. 1-877-bosch99. Maybe they have the info you want.

The only info on the outside of the unit says 15a and 4hp max. No bearing issues yet. Two biggest complaints are 1. the cross cut guide has too much play and must be shimmed to make consistant cuts and 2. the arbor is too short to allow the use of an adjustable dado.e

Its not worth $964.35. I paid under $500.00 for mine, but comparing the weight between my makita 10" to the 7.5" makita about 1/3 the weight, plus 1/3 the size. Its my go to saw for every day use.

I've had this saw for a long time. It's great for light duty use. I wouldn't use it on 12" solid metal regularly. And the 20v battery will not work. If u need to cut alot of hard steel go with a plug in cord one. They are way stronger. The cord is a hassle but having to recharge batteries every 5 minutes and weaker cutting ability off sets the hassle of the cord. If r just cutting 2x4, plywood, nails, PVC, copper/brass, nails/bolts tree branch then this saw is worth the money

Not sure. Mine is on a 15 amp circuit and has never kicked the breaker. Almost all of the draw is at startup and that is handled by capacitors, once the blade is in motion there is enough inertia that I've never noticed it slowing down (and thus requiring additional current draw) for anything I've ever cut with it, which is most generally oak or dimensional softwoods. I'm not outside at the moment (recovering from eye surgery yesterday), so I can't check the motor for its specs. Try the Makita web site for detailed electrical specs.

I use my saw usually with an Alaskan mill, 24 " bar and chain on mine, it has never bogged down with careful use, at 60cc it is a really good value. make sure you use fuel stabilizers as ethanol fuel will play havoc with ignition when it takes on water.

Is table saw rate more than 1/2hp or more than 16 amps? If that be the case it would cause it to trip. That the only thing I can think of

I use it on my 1hp Craftsman tablesaw motor ...........no problem. I would check the spec on ampere rating. More important than the HP rating.

i am probably not the one to ask about this saw. i really don't care for it and have since purchased an alternate unit. my problem with saw is different from yours, but still ends in the same result of an unsatisfied customer. good luck

According to the operating instructions the amps will depend on the cord length. The cord on the saw is directly plugged in with no extension cord, and I believe the amp rating is 6 amp. I am currently using a 3/4 inch blade, 4 teeth per inch, style is skip, set is Raker. Cuts everything from ash wood to black walnut wood, and cherry with no effort.

Sorry, for the late answer. I don't can help you. I sold the saw. Because the saw was not what I want. The Tracks are not really good. When you need the saw for business, the saw is not good enough. I buy a different brand, and I'm happy. But off course the new saw was more than the on double price. For hobby is this a good saw for a good price, but not for more.

The saw runs at 15 full load amps at 120volts. Use a 4000 watt (4kw) transformer and you'll have more than enough power to run this saw.

I am not sure but don't think motor is strong enough. This saw is for pretty small light stuff and just not sure on that sorry.

The arbor is Metric, an M10 x 1.5 thread. If you can't find accessories with the M10 x 1.5 arbor, an adapter is available that will convert it to a standard 5/8". You might be better off buying the Makita 4.5", it already has the 5/8" arbor, and accessories are available everywhere.

It will draw 15 amps at start. It does not have a soft start. That being said this is a great quality saw. Very light weight but very versatile and quality tool. I would buy this tool over and over again.

I just hooked a multimeter up to the lawn mower and was seeing anywhere from 8 amps with no load, up to 20 with a load. I'm going to put a 36v 10ah Lifep04 battery in place of the lead acid batteries. I needed to know the power consumption for a BMS/PCB. If anyone has exact specs on the motor, please let me know. Putting the lithium chemistry in the lawn mower should reduce its weight by 25LBS!

I am very happy with mine. I haven't used it more than three times, but it has a lot of power and is easy to start if you do it right. It is pretty much a clone of a Husqkvarna 45 cc and starts and runs pretty much the same. I cut up some very large and seasoned oak wood with ease with mine.

Depends on the HP of your saw. The dust col. is 1HP and my Delta 10" saw is 1.5HP. A HP is 746 watts (single phase) so 746Wx2.5HP=1865 Watts divided by 120 Volts = 15.54 Amps. As long as you don't start them at the same time and your breaker is in good shape (they do degrade over time), You should be OK on a 20A circuit.
