## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will it work with 2.0 amp batteries?**
A: You can use the 1.5 amp and 2.0 amp batteries but you will find that the run-time and weight distribution are better with the 3.0amp and 4.0 amp battery.

**Q: Does it come with a sanding pad (usually triangular) ?**
A: Not sure if Makita changed what they include with this bare tool since the last post, but it does come with two adaptors so other brands of attachments will fit on it! No Sanding pad :-( Punch in Makita A-96089 Sanding Pad on Amazon.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by S***T on 29 August 2025*

I bought this to replace a twenty year old corded Fein oscillating saw that had seen better days. I must admit, I am committed to Makita because of their outstanding 18 volt battery system... That said, I love this tool. The new generation of the blade clamping mechanism is fast, easy and secure. Once you get used to the clamping lever, you can change or reposition a blade in seconds. Blades stay exactly where you set them. Zero slippage. This saw is plenty powerful, I've been cutting 120 year old wood with this thing and it doesn't bog down at all. Battery life is excellent, I usually get an entire work day out of a fully charged battery. Literally the only improvements I could wish for are a work light. Though, I can see why it's not easy to design a light given that the blade can be positioned anywhere along a 180 degree arc. Secondly, this saw is fairly big and heavy, I can one-hand it if necessary but I still wish it was smaller.
