Stated differently, not directly comparable

The two makers put these figures in different terms, so the rows cannot be read as a match or a difference from these pages.

  • Included: KS 120 REB: Saw Blade WOOD UNIVERSAL HW 260X2,5X30 W60; Angle Transfer Device SM-KS; Hold Down Clamp KL-KS 120; hex key 6 mm.

Where the table has one figure and a dash, only Festool USA's cited pages give voltage, bevel capacity, miter capacity, dust port and cord length; only Makita U.S.A.'s cited pages give arbor, crosscut capacity and weight. Those rows are open questions for the other maker, not ties between the KS 120 REB and LS1219L.
